One variation of a mixing system includes: a container configured to store consumable beverages; a lid; and a mixer. The lid is configured to transiently couple to the container and includes: a housing; a mixer receptacle; a set of user controls arranged on an outer face of the lid; a set of electronics arranged within the housing and including a motor, a controller configured to actuate the motor responsive to selection of the set of user controls, and a power supply configured to supply power to the motor and the controller; and a set of supports arranged between the motor and walls of the housing and configured to absorb energy output by the motor. The mixer includes: a connector section configured to engage the mixer receptacle to couple the mixer to the motor; and a mixing section configured to mix ingredients in the container responsive to actuation of the motor.

An ice cream maker fitting for a stand mixer provided with a main body having a mobile element rotating about a first rotation axis. The fitting includes at least one adapter element, which is provided with a coupling element configured to be coupled to a blade for processing ingredient. The adapter element is coupled to the mobile element by a magnetic coupling.

A blender assembly includes a base, a heater assembly selectively coupled to the base and having a heating element and a biasing feature that biases the heating element away from the base, and a jar assembly selectively coupled to the heater assembly and having a jar and a heat transfer element coupled to the jar. Coupling the jar assembly to the heater assembly prompts the heat transfer element to contact the heating element, such that the heating element moves toward the base against the bias of the biasing feature.

A portable food processing apparatus describes a food processing chamber including a blade arrangement and a housing including a motor for driving said blade arrangement, a microcontroller for controlling said motor and at least one motion sensor communicatively coupled to said microcontroller. The microcontroller is adapted to evaluate sensor data produced by the at least one motion sensor in order to detect a predefined motion pattern in said sensor data, said predefined motion pattern corresponding to an operation setting of the motor; and control said motor in accordance with said operation setting upon detection of the predefined motion pattern.

Proposed is a blender, in which a main body operates when a closure of a container lid on a container body is detected. In the blender according to the present disclosure, when the closure of the container lid is detected, a voltage is transferred from a first inductive coil of the main body to a second inductive coil of the container body. By using the voltage transferred to the second inductive coil, a light emitting unit of the container body transmits a light signal to a light receiving unit of the main body, and the light signal has a predetermined signal pattern. When the light receiving unit receives the light signal of the signal pattern, the main body recognizes the closure of the container lid on the container body such that the main body operates.
