The present invention relates to a food processor (10). It is described to hold (110) a first food product in a food chamber, wherein food processing means are configured to process at least the first food product in the food chamber. An ingredient identification module determines (120) if either sucrose or fructose is the dominant sugar in the first food product to be processed. A processing unit determines (130) a processing protocol for processing the first food product, wherein determination of the processing protocol comprises utilization of the determined dominant sugar in the first food product. The food processing means processes (140) at least the first food product in the food chamber.

A coffee brewing apparatus and method that produces coffee using an agitation and cold brew operation. A high temperature strike stage with agitation is followed by a cold brew stage, with a displacement pump configured to transfer the coffee oils and extracts, shortening the time necessary to achieve a brew cycle. The brewing cycle of the present invention preferably uses a six stage sequence that includes introduction of strike water, agitation, bloom, brew water introduction, extraction, and dilution. The various stages are performed using a brewing system that includes an agitation system, a displacement pump, and a filtering system used to extract the oils and extracts of the coffee for brewing.

A blender includes a jar including a blade module to cut an object, a main body to receive the jar and including a motor to rotate the blade module, and a controller disposed inside the main body and configured to operate the motor. The main body further includes an outer case and forming an outer structure of the main body. The outer case includes a touch input portion on an outer surface of the outer case. A touch sensor is disposed on an inner surface of the outer case at a position corresponding to the touch input portion to detect a touch input on the touch input portion. The controller is configured to determine an operation time period of the motor based on the touch input detected by the touch sensor.

A blending device includes a motor, a motor controller, and a wireless controller configured to receive a wireless signal. The motor controller may be configured to alter the operations of the motor based the wireless signal. The wireless signal may include a blending program to be carried out by the blending device. The blending device may include one or more sensors configured to sense parameters of the blending device. The wireless signal may include information related to the sensed parameters. A blending device network may be formed by providing a second blending device having a wireless controller in communication with the first blending device wireless controller. The first and second blending devices may share information over the network.
