Operating Instructions
Follow these steps to prepare and serve your vinaigrette:
- Prepare Ingredients: Gather all necessary ingredients for your chosen vinaigrette recipe. You can use one of the recipes printed on the mixer or your own.
- Add Ingredients: Remove the lid. Pour liquid ingredients (oil, vinegar, etc.) into the container, using the measurement markings for accuracy. Add solid ingredients (herbs, spices, mustard) as desired.
- Secure Lid: Place the lid back onto the container, ensuring it is securely fastened to prevent leaks during mixing.
- Mix: Turn the mixing handle (crank) to thoroughly combine and emulsify the ingredients. Continue mixing until the desired consistency is achieved.
- Serve: Open one of the anti-drip spouts and pour the vinaigrette directly over your salad or dish.
- Store: If there is leftover vinaigrette, close the spouts and store the mixer directly in the refrigerator. The sealed container helps maintain freshness.

Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Vinaigrette not emulsifying properly. | Insufficient mixing time or incorrect ingredient ratios. | Increase mixing duration. Ensure oil and vinegar ratios are balanced (typically 3 parts oil to 1 part vinegar). Add an emulsifier like mustard or egg yolk. |
| Lid leaks during mixing. | Lid not securely fastened or seal is compromised. | Ensure the lid is firmly twisted or pressed into place. Check the lid's seal for any damage or misalignment. |
| Difficulty turning the mixing handle. | Mechanism obstructed or stiff from residue. | Disassemble and thoroughly clean the mixing mechanism. Ensure no solid ingredients are jamming the rotator. |
| Vinaigrette separates after storage. | Natural separation of oil and water-based ingredients. | This is normal. Simply re-mix the vinaigrette using the handle before serving. |
