I love my Aer!! So glad I purchased! I immediately contacted colleagues and shared the excitement of use of this new feature for the Vitamix. Extremely helpful in a professional kitchen.
Pros: Texture Quality, Easy to use, Versatility, Recipe Enhancement
I have had the Aer Disc about a month and have only used it so far for cold foam (making coffee beverages) and hot chocolate. Both had great results, although it takes a long time to do the hot chocolate so I would probably do a combo of microwave and aer disc frothing in the future. I REALLY wish there were more recipes for this container!! Hopefully I will find more as more people use it.
Pros: Speed of Service, Durability, Easy to use, Power
I used this for the first time to make mayonnaise. It was simple and effective... easiest tool I’ve ever used for mayonnaise, which can be tricky. I used the two lowest settings on my vitamix and a small, steady stream of oil and had mayonnaise in minutes!
I am happy with my Aer Disc. I use it very often - primarily for whipped foam for coffee, mayo, and hollandaise sauces. However, the included recipe book is pretty useless so I must go online for recipes, I cannot make large batches of anything - best amount of skim milk for best foaming is only 1 cup, and more user “best practice“ tips would be so great.
does foam. you can do everything else on your regular vitamix. unless you own a coffee shop seems expensive to just foam
Pros: Speed of Service, Texture Quality, Versatility, Power

Hello, yes the new Aer™ Disc Container foams beautifully, but you can also master whipping, muddling, and emulsifying in one of the most versatile blender attachments on the market. Here are some more recipes to try: https://www.vitamix.com/us/en_us/browse/recipes/aer-disc
