Since we got a Thermomix we have been asked many times what we use it for. We always managed to cite a few examples, but decided it was time to be more systematic. We kept a log for about a month and it is presented in the table below. Some the same person uses it twice for separate purposes.

Executive Summary: We would be lost without it. Jobs that used to take hours are now done in thirty seconds, like pulverising dried citrus skins to make a powder.
We know about the problems some users have encountered but so our experiences are very good.
Note on nomenclature. When we got it, we christened it Asimov as in ‘I, Robot.’ We still refer to it that way between ourselves.
