I’m excited to give this container a few more tries. There are not too many recipes and I haven’t had time to work with it. I did try using coconut cream to whip but it didn’t get stiff, possibly because the cream wasn’t cold. I will be trying this again.
Pros: Versatility

You will master whipping, muddling, foaming, and emulsifying in no time. Yes, the coconut cream/milk would need to be cold for sure. Let us know how it turns out!
I really enjoy it for both drinks and the whipped cream! So simple - the only downside is the lack of recipe variety - please publish additional recipes.
I purchased my Vitamix aer in December and was very excited to try it. The first thing I did was make hot chocolate cor the grandkids and they totally loved it with all the froth on top. I have since used it for whipping cream very poor results. I read it took 15 sexonds no. Was liquid increased time and probably after 4 x 15 seconds got a lightly whipped cream. Just whipped some skim milk for my coffee, following directions to warm it fo4st. Not impressed with the amount of foam over liquid. So far am disappointed as finding it an expensive hot chocolate maker and quicker to use my mixer to whip cream. Do I have a bad product or is this actually the results others get? Would have been nice to have had a recipe book included with product
Pros: Power

On page 21 of the recipe book that came with the Aer™ Disc Container, whipped cream will take 45 seconds to 1 minute on the highest speed. Please call 1-800-848-2649 with any recipes you are struggling with and we'd be happy to further assist you.
