I want to use this with roasted almonds to make almond butter. My brother has a Champion that makes butter easily. Anyone done any roasted nuts?

It will not grind anything with moisture, so nuts are not a possibility. It will ruin the grinder

kitchenaid's grain mill doesn't like oily/ 'wet' items so no nuts, coffee, or cocoa beans.

The Wondermill milling chamber will get blocked up if you use oily nuts like walnuts. When milling nuts like almonds, they should be roasted and dried or they will get stuck.

Yes, but you have to pack it in tightly and pulse it sporadically so it won't liquify. I have only tried it with whole almonds and it seems to work fine that kind of nut. Good luck!

I just read a review by some other customer about this product different brand "Compact Table Top Grinder -110volts 2 Ltrs". She has already bought and tried it for producing nut butter. I have copy pasted her question/comment. Since she has already bought it, You can probably ask her user experience. Normally, in my country we use this primarily for grinding soaked rice, lentils, beans and black gram etc. I bought this item to make nut butter for my raw food restaurant where we make our own almond butter. The most efficient way I have found to do this is to first process the nuts in a cuisanart until they are pretty fine, then add them to the stone grinder. We add almond oil for a smooth consistency. If you leave the top of and help it along with a spatula for the first five minutes and then let it go for another five. Another review said you shouldn't let it run for more than a half hour because the motor isn't that strong and it usually takes less than ten minutes to make about 4 cups of...

I really don't know. I would first research how other people make nut butter, what kind of tool they use. If they say a blender then I see no reason why you could not use this for that then.

I believe the instructions mention making butters with it but I've never tried. I imagine you could but wouldn't get it smooth like the commercial stuff. A VitaMix or food processor would work better. Hope this helps. By the way, it's GREAT for wheatgrass/greens.

Yes, I just made some this morning with these almonds and have used these before for almond milk. They make it tasty!

I would not use this grinder to make nut butters. (I make my own nut butters all of the time, in my 14 c. Cuisinart Food processor, which does an amazing job. In my experience, you need at least a 7 cup food proc. to make any nut butter). This little grinder is not meant for the motor to be running for as long as it takes to make nut butter.

Maybe if you add oil to the nuts before starting but it doesn't get creamy. Also you'll burn the motor out pretty fast. We make mayo every few days with the stick portion and the motor gets hot after about 30 seconds of blending. The instructions say not to run it for more than about 30 seconds at a time and when i make almond butter it takes much longer than that, so I use my blender.

Absolutely! I make some very easy to make but very yummy Almond butter. Nothing else needed beside this jar and the blender.

I've never tried it on a butternut. I just cut them in half and bake cut supine down the scoop out the flesh.

I have used this to make almond flour, but I have not tried peanuts or peanut butter.

I would be shocked to know this would work with nut butters. I wasn't even able to make them with my old Breville Blender, which was a pretty powerful blender. I make nut butters in my high speed blender withno problem. This immersion blender is awesome for use on the stove or whipping up quick salad dressings . . .but I really wouldn't recommend trying it on nut butters. It's great on juicy foods or foods with liquid them, though.

I'm sure you could, We made chocolate and it turned out very smooth, Nut butter would probably turn out good. You would probably want to pre-grind the nuts a little but cause large pieces can bind the machine up. the texture you get would probably be close to nuttella as opposed to peanut butter.

Hi DukeofURL sure you can ' ALMOND & peanut butter ... For the almond you need lots of patience takes like 20 to 30 minutes to the almonds to release the oils ... In the Peanut department it's way more easy and fast just make sure the peanut selection is very fresh and make intervals so you can scrap the sides and run it again ! Good look. Be healthy

My experience is thatthat it does a wonderful job off smooth nut butter. Lots of videos demonstrating that very thing.Bob

Yes. But it will take at least a half hour with the "s" blade. Almond butter is not a quick process.
