If you don’t have the recipe book, you can get it here.
How Do You Use the Instant Pot Ace Blender?
You can use the Ace blender as you would a regular blender with the manual blending keys, or you can use a preset button that automatically does what you need it to do.

- Remove the lid from the pitcher.
- Stack all of your recipe ingredients into the pitcher.
- Secure the lid on the pitcher.

- The blender will beep 3-times and then begin.
- Press cancel to stop it, or wait for the countdown to complete.

- Remove the lid from the pitcher.
- Stack all of your recipe ingredients into the pitcher.
- Secure the lid on the pitcher.
- Select your desired hot blending program such as soup.
- The blender will beep 3-times and then begin.

How Do I Clean the Instant Pot Ace Blender?
Like the Instant Pot, the Ace blender is pretty easy to clean. All you’ll need is a dishwashing brush and some soapy water, and it wipes out pretty easily.
Sometimes, you will find that food has gotten stuck or scorched on the bottom. If this happens, you can run the pulse/clean function to clean the blender.
To use this function, you will fill the pitcher with 34 ounces of hot water and press the button.
Next, discard the water after it has finished, fill again adding a little soap, and run the program again. Simply rinse it with warm water to finish it up.
