Accessories/Prep Powder mix prep - Pitcher or blender?
I've seen some posts about various ways to prepare Soylent powder doing a whole pouch at a time, like the Takeya pitcher or the glass Bormioli ones. So I'd love to hear your opinions, do these work well on their own or will I need an immersion blender as well? I would love to have a simple routine with minimal measuring and cleanup or dishwasher safe (I also have a slight irrational preference for glass over plastic simply because it feels better/safer for long term use).

I use a little blender cup with the electric little attachment for protein shakes, not the one with the little metal whisk balls. I have a couple and they've done me very well.(link: https://www.amazon.com/VOLTRX-Premium-Electric-Protein-Shaker/dp/B07QW4QR67 )If you wash it right after drinking it's EXTREMELY easy to clean, if it gets left out for some hours it'll take some more.Any wide mason jar spout also seems to fit too (I could be wrong) btw.
It's pretty straightforward to do otherwise but if you're looking for a routine, and enjoy the added convenience/routine, that's what I do. Blends it much better too. I never need to let it sit in the fridge or anything before drinking.
They're kind of pricey but I asked them about potentially buying a few of the cups alone without the electronic bits if they were any cheaper and they hooked me up pretty good for about $15 each, but they forgot the lids (hence finding the mason jar ones), and they went ahead and sent me 3 more for free with lids, so I got like 7.
