New thread time folks. Old thread is here.

And how cold are mornings in Canberra now? Cold enough that I had to mix on 37 degrees to get my cake to mix properly!

It sure is cold in the mornings - cold enough for thermomix porridge for breakfast

Anyone worked out a way to stop the porridge creating a bowl cleaning nightmare?? I love porridge, but the bowl cleaning puts me off!

I prefer cleaning the thermomix bowl to cleaning the saucepan! Hate doing it on the stovetop. I don't find it too bad - just whizz some water in it and then give it a slosh with the cleaning brush. I think the key is doing it as soon as the porridge is cooked - if you leave it too long, it sets like glue.

I'm looking forward to cooking porridge in the morning too. Not quite cold enough yet in Sydney, maybe a couple of weeks?

I always put some water in the bowl as soon as I have served the porridge and give it a good whizz. Usually we are running out the door and when I give it a brush later it cleans up fine.

I actually won a thermomix about a month ago and I have been using it every day.

Initially, I wasn't convinced. I thought, yeah, but I can do all this without the thermomix.

Slowly I have been working my way through various recipes and I've got to say, it's got a hold of me. I'm addicted! I'm searching for more things to make all the time!

Now I understand the evangelism. I get it. I used to think it was because everyone paid 2K for their machines, they had to be enthusiastic to justify paying that much. Well I didn't pay a cent and I get it! This thing is the most amazing kitchen appliance ever.

Congratulations Credence! Wow what a win! Was that through Lighthouse flours or Family Circle magazine?

As a TMX owner (and consultant) it always sounds biased when I say just how good it is, and almost how addictive it is, so it is lovely to hear your opinion as well

Oh you WON a TMX! You lucky lucky ducky! I enter competitions for TMX because I'd like a second one

I don't have a problem with porridge sticking so long as I cook at 90 and keep it moving at reverse 2-3 . I pop it straight into the Thermoserver to keep warm because my family tend to come to the table in dribs and drabs .
