Juice extractor: Approved!

Taking the vintage machine for a spin - Will it blend? - Yes - hummus done!

Time to take the vintage machine (Magimix 5100) for a spin. Almost as exiting as turning the key in an old car, I guess. Motor makes a wonderful humming sound, turning half a kilo of chickpeas into hummus in no time.

Broken lid => security workaround  (don't try this at home)

Note to self: Add more garlic next time. Blame the n00bish chef; not the Magimix.

Vintage Magimix in the house

Found a great holiday present to myself: An old school, charming Magimix 5100. Lid is broke. Work Bowl has seen better days. Accessories in good condition, including juice extractor. Got everything for around Euro 25 (~USD 30).

Old school beautiful IMHO.

Now time to look for good prize on spare parts (a least for the lid) and a possible fix for the work bowl and see for how it will stand the test of time. Even if I have to buy both it still looks like a good deal (I hope....). Wonder for how long Magimix will provide spare parts for the 5100.
