Handling & operation of the Vitamix E320

The Vitamix E320 has a simple and intuitive operating concept: the on/off switch on the right side starts the blending process. The blending speed can be controlled from 1 to 10 with the dial in the middle. The left switch starts the so-called pulse function, which directly activates the set speed level as long as the switch is held down. The same function also is possible using the on/off switch. Switching on and off once is sufficient here instead of keeping the button pressed during the blending process.

Container

The Vitamix E320 is equipped with the 2.0 liter Pro container. This container is characterized by its lower height and a wider diameter than, for example, the 2.0 liter container Classic, which also has a 2.0 liter volume, but is much narrower.
The Vitamix E320 has particularly long blades, these ensure excellent blending results. Green smoothies are not only fiber-free, but also have a wonderfully creamy and fluffy consistency.
The compact height of the container allows the Vitamix E320 to fit under any kitchen counter and make it easier to remove viscous preparations such as nicecream or hummus
However, the wider and compact container shape requires larger minimum quantities: For preparations that can be poured from the container, such as smoothies, almond milk or soups, about 500 ml are needed. For more viscous preparations such as almond paste or nicecreams (ice cream), about 800 ml are required. If this is too much for you, we recommend purchasing the 1.4 liter container, which allows you to prepare smaller quantities starting at 250 ml.
The lid of the container is equipped with the typical Vitamix lid insert. This can be opened during the blending process in order to push the Ingredients back to the blades of the container.

Cleaning the Vitamix E320

Cleaning the Vitamix E320 container

Cleaning the container is easiest if you rinse it immediately after preparing liquid meals such as green smoothies or almond milk. Then dry it with a kitchen towel if necessary. Done.
For thicker preparations, simply fill the container halfway with lukewarm water, add 1 to 2 drops of dishwashing liquid and blend on maximum for about 30 seconds. Then pour out and rinse with clean water. If there still is food residue - especially underneath the blades - we recommend the use of our practical cleaning brush.

Deep Cleaning with Bakiing Soda:

If the mixing container becomes slightly discolored over time, for example, due to frequent blending of leafy greens, herbs, and wild herbs, we recommend a deep cleaning with baking soda.
For the cleaning instructions with baking soda.

Our cleaning recommendation: Regardless of manufacturer instructions, we advise against cleaning the container, container lid, and insert in the dishwasher. Our experience shows that you can extend the lifespan of the container through manual cleaning.

Vitamix Classic grinding container for coffee or grain

Alternatively, the Vitamix Classic grinding container (dry container) is recommended for regular grinding of coffee and grains. The normal "wet" containers are also suitable for occasional grinding, but the blender jug will become blind/cloudy over time, making it harder to see the contents of the container. This may not matter when grinding, but for pesto, which should have a very specific consistency, it is important to see when this is reached so that you can stop the blender at the right moment.

Vitamix E320 vs. Vitamix E310

Before we discuss the differences between the Vitamix E310 and E320, let's first talk about their commonality: Both blenders belong to the Vitamix Explorian Series and have the same motor base - meaning the E310 and E320 are equally powerful and operate in the same way. The difference lies in the container: The Vitamix E320 is equipped with the Vitamix 2-liter Pro container - the best container we know of when it comes to achieving fiber-free and creamy green smoothies, fruit smoothies, or vegetable smoothies. This is due to the particularly long blades. However, because of the wider container base, the minimum amount for preparing smoothies and liquids is higher compared to other containers, at around 500 ml, and for thicker consistencies like nice cream or hummus, it is around 800 ml. If you also want to prepare small quantities starting from 250 ml, you will need an additional container such as the Vitamix 1.4-liter Classic container.

On the other hand, the Vitamix E310 is equipped with the smaller, tapered 1.4-liter container. With this container, green smoothies will be slightly less creamy and smooth, but you can use the same container to make small to medium-sized batches ranging from about 250 ml up to 1.4 liters. If you value a versatile blender without the need for additional containers and are willing to compromise slightly on smoothie consistency, then the Vitamix E310 could be a sensible alternative.

Vitamix E320 vs. Vitamix E520

The Vitamix E320 and Vitamix E520 not only look almost identical, but they also have more similarities than differences. They both feature the perfect smoothie-making container, which ensures incredibly smooth (green) smoothies and is suitable for medium to larger batch sizes. They also share the same motor power, compact dimensions, and come with a 7-year warranty on all parts.

The only difference between the Vitamix E320 and Vitamix E520 lies in their operation. While the E320 can be manually controlled with 10 speed settings, the Vitamix E520 offers not only manual control but also 3 pre-programmed settings for smoothies, soups, and frozen treats. This difference makes the Vitamix E520 more convenient, and the slightly higher price is completely justified. If you value a bit more convenience in your smoothie-making experience, be sure to check out the Vitamix E520.

Vitamix E320 vs. Vitamix Pro 750

Both blenders come equipped with the best container for making (green) smoothies. The difference between the Vitamix E320 and the Vitamix Pro 750 lies in motor power, operation, appearance, warranty, and price. The E320 is slightly less powerful than the Pro 750, meaning it doesn't spin quite as fast. However, we couldn't perceive a difference in performance when it comes to the consistency of green smoothies or creamy preparations like hummus or baba ganoush.

While the E320 does not have time programs, the Pro 750 features 5 well-thought-out automatic program functions, including smoothies, soups, and cleaning. Its high-quality housing with a no-touch coating (no fingerprints) has also won awards. Vitamix offers a 7-year warranty on this model. On the other hand, the Vitamix E320 does not have the same elegant look and comes with a 7-year warranty, but it is significantly more affordable. Those looking for the best smoothie consistency at the best price should go for the E320, while those who value an elegant appearance and time programs should consider the Vitamix Pro 750:
