The maximum quantity of ingredients per mixing session is 640ml.
Chunky
Allows the ingredients to be heated for longer to ensure the chunky ingredients are fully cooked. The program lasts for 28 minutes before the soup is ready to serve & enjoy.
For chunky soup, there is no blending process, just heating. It is therefore recommended that you cut any vegetables into small dice sized pieces. If your soup is a little too chunky after cooking, select the blend function to gain your desired consistency.
Medium

Cleaning and Maintenance
The Kogan Soup & Smoothie Maker is not dishwasher safe, but it is simple and easy to clean.
After use, simply run the blend section of the lid incorporating the blending blade under warm water, and wipe with a sponge. The inside of the Soup Maker base can also be cleaned with warm soapy water and a sponge. If food is burned on, allow to soak, then wipe away with a sponge. Wipe the outside of the appliance with a soft, dry cloth.
Certain food types can burn if in contact with the base heating element. If this happens, fill the Soup Maker with hot soapy water and allow to soak for 15 minutes. Any burnt-on food can then easily be removed with a coarse sponge cleaning pad. Do not use a metal scouring pad as this will scratch the base.
After cleaning, please dry all parts thoroughly.
Do not immerse the base plate or power cable.
