I am asked all the time, when is the new Thermomix coming? What do you know about the TM7? Have you heard anything? So today I am sharing what I am calling "educated speculation".
A Quick Note About Me
Just so you know who you are chatting with, my name is Julie Carlyle. I first started my Thermomix website ThermoKitchen in late 2015. I have self-published several Thermomix cookbooks and I am a current Thermomix consultant. So I have been in the work of Thermomix for a long time now!
My local area is the Central Coast of NSW but I operate as a virtual consultant serving all of Australia. I am also qualified to assist NDIS clients in their purchases. I can look after customers online and in person.
The Big Question
I am regularly asked by concerned purchasers, "When is the Thermomix TM7 being brought out?" They usually explain to me that a friend of a friend purchased a TM31 back in 2014 just a month before the release of the TM5. They explain they don't want to buy a TM6 and the TM7 to be released the next month.
Is that your concern?
Thermomix in Australia has certainly demonstrated they have learned from that mistake. Not only did they offer TM5's to all TM31 purchasers within a 6 months period of the TM5 release, but they also handled the release of the TM6 very differently.
In the case of the TM6 release, the public and the consultants were informed months in advance of the new Thermomix. Customers were offered a choice of a discounted TM5 or the TM6. Everything was completely transparent with plenty of lead time for informed decisions to be made.
When Will The TM7 be Released?
The next question I usually get is "Well, that's great... but when will the TM7 be released?" I would rather wait 12 months for the updated version."
There are a few things I need to address around this topic.
Thermomix TM6 Research and Development
Firstly, the TM6 is unlike any of its predecessors. It is wifi connected and is a smart, learning machine. Just like your phone, it receives software updates that provide more functions, changes to the interface, different cooking modes, and various other tweaks. The TM6 started with just 4 modes more than the TM5, high heat, Sous Vide, Ferment, and Sugar Settings. Now there are approximately 17 extra cooking modes that have been added to the TM6, and it is growing all the time. Vorwerk is continuing to fund TM6 research and development.
We already know of accessories that will be released for the TM6 well into 2025.
Check out my video of the TM6 functions here.
Thermomix TM7 Functions
The next big question is, what functions could be added to the TM7? To release a new Thermomix, Vorwerk must develop a machine with significantly different functionality. Functionality that couldn't simply be added to the TM6 via a software update.
What would you like the TM6 to do that it doesn't already do? I really wanted it to slice potatoes for my potato bake, and now an attachment has been released that lets you do that! So I really can't think of anything more the Thermomix could be made to do.
Please feel free to write in the comments if you have some functions you would like to see in a new Thermomix.
The TM7 Grapevine
So what is the TM7 grapevine saying? So remember, we were given months and months of notice about the pending "possible release" of the TM6. Plus, believe me, no secret is safe inside the Thermomix of Australia walls for very long. I have to say the TM7 is way off! Like, seriously way off.
Thermomix Dilemma
You could wait for Thermomix to release a TM7. That may mean you do all your chopping, cooking, meal planning, and writing shopping lists by hand waiting for a machine that may 3-7 years off.
OR you could embrace the Thermomix we know and love! The TM6 has every feature I can imagine, and loads I haven't even tried yet! I know my life would not be the same without a Thermomix on my bench. I absolutely hate going to someone's place and having to cook everything by hand. It's so tedious. Why not take a look at the latest Thermomix gift with purchase offer.
Remember the best offer is the one that gets a Thermomix on your kitchen bench the quickest. This lets you say goodbye to unhealthy and expensive takeaway meals sooner.
Let Thermomix make dinner!

Agree with the comments re the bigger bowl. This was why I recommended the Magimix to my sister. She has been really happy with it. Personally the varoma cannot ercome this eg soups.
I haven't bought the slicer but might consider it if it could dice. I have a TM 5 not a 6
Jen says
I am cooking for a family of 7 and with friends 10. I need the bigger bowl. A proper browning function as it just does not taste the same due to the lack of fond like it does when I brown on the stove or in my instant pot. I would also love a warming only without the blade moving to assist with rising of dough. And I would love a different option to stir food that doesn’t involve the blade and has more of a proper stirring function.
Julie Carlyle says
Hi Jen
WOW! I don't think any machine would manage to cook for that big of a group. I cater to large numbers, but as a consultant I have earned a second machine. Maybe that's an option for you.
Thanks for commenting

Jezza says
If a Tm7 does get released, hopefully it’ll address these items highlighted in this comparison, Magimix cook expert vs Thermomix tm6. The main difference being capacity and a see thru top.
Any thoughts?
Julie Carlyle says
Hi Jezza
A see through lid and a larger capacity bowl would be nice. But if Thermomix wanted to bring out a see through lid they wouldn’t need to change the whole machine.
Having said that, I make use of the Varoma in my cooking and I never need a bigger bowl. I’m Cooking for an 18 year old boy, 16 year old, hubby and myself.
Thank you for your comment.

Sue says
The Magimix actually isn’t a bigger bowl. It may be bigger but the useable volume for fluid or cooking is either the same as TM6 or smaller
Courtney says
I felt very the same to Angela. I had a 31, then got a 5. I love Thermomix but I now have a family of 7(even family of 5 it was a struggle) I’m desperately hoping a TM 7 has increased capacity. I know my 5 still helps with prep etc but I don’t use it as much unless I want to cook dinner twice. Alot of the other copy cats have larger capacity so I do hope TM is working with this. I am holding off until a 7 is out! I am desperate for all the functions of the 6 but simply can’t do it as it is a luxury item not a necessity with current capacity.
Julie Carlyle says
Hi Courtney
I can understand what you’re saying. A bigger bowl for larger families would be a good option. Knowing the recipes that make big batches of food is also a factor. I have a recipe on my site that makes 2 kilo of pulled pork in the Varoma. When the pork is nearly cooked you can toss in some mini corn cobs and serve with coleslaw and wraps. This is a really easy meal and I’ve served 10 adults with this easily. https://www.thermo.kitchen/thermomix-pulled-pork-recipe/
The Varoma is my secret weapon🤣

Marli says
I’m hoping bigger capacity also. I have the 5 won’t get the 6 but hoping 7 has a bigger bowl..
Family of 5 and the meals are just not enough unless you’re cooking multiple times on it.
Julie Carlyle says
Hi Marli
I do understand this sentiment. Have you tried using the varoma to add steamed vegetables whenever you are cooking something below in the bowl. I use my Varoma almost everytime I cook so I can bulk dinner out and add more greens 🙂
Happy Cooking
Julie
Angela Giordimaina says
I have a TM5. At the moment there is a trade in offer where I can upgrade to the TM6. Last time I traded my TM31 to the TM5 the TM6 came out. It was too late and I couldn’t afford that just a few months after paying to upgrade and trade in to the TM5.
Has this offer to trade in and upgrade to the TM6 in preparation for the release of the TM7?
Julie Carlyle says
Hi Angela
I absolutely promise you that Thermomix has learned from the mistakes of the past. They are not preparing to launch a TM7. If there was something coming we would have heard a lead up plan. Nothing has is in the pipeline, not even in Germany.
I would love to help you with your trade up if you aren’t currently speaking with a consultant.
Kind Regards
Julie Carlyle
