The Thermomix is a multi-purpose kitchen appliance of the Multicooker type made by the Vorwerk Corporate Group. The current Thermomix has a heating element, a motor for fast or slow blending and stirring, and a weighing scale. The functions can be accessed simultaneously to carry out steaming, emulsifying, blending, precise heating, mixing, milling, whipping, kneading, chopping, weighing, grinding and stirring. The 2014 Thermomix TM5 also has a touchscreen with a guided mode which allows the user to follow recipes step by step.
"Thermomix" is a hybrid word derived from Greek "thermo" (heating) and English "mix". In Italy and Portugal, it is sold under the trademark Bimby.[1]
