About the Blades
The Vitamix machine comes standard with the wet blade container. The blade is
identified by a "W" for wet. This blade is used for most of your recipes. Additional
containers with wet or dry blades may be purchased separately.

Wet Blade Container: Designed for processing liquids,
including juice, frozen mixtures, sauces, soups, purées,
batters, and for wet chopping. The wet blades can also grind
grain and knead dough, but they are not quite as efficient as
the dry blades in this application. If used for grinding, your
container will mar and become cloudy; see instructions for
dry container use.
Dry Blade Container: These blades are clearly marked "D"
and are designed specifically for grinding dry materials, such
as grains, cereal, and coffee, and are also used for kneading
bread dough. The dry blades can NOT process liquids
efficiently. If you grind herbs on a regular basis, you may
wish to purchase a separate dry blade container.
