I have made hummus with it. It did not handle chick peas very well. It worked, but we had to coax it through the process.

Haven't tried it in the blender but do make smoothies with pumpkin seeds, chia, hemp seeds, nuts and frozen cranberries and frozen blueberries. I do have a Cuisinart food processors that I make butters in.

I have made almond milk with great success in the ronco juicer. I find it much easier than using my vitamix and then a nut bag... I usually run the liquid through a second time just to make sure all small bits are out and it leaves you with a smooth milk. I have not used the juicer for almond butter. I am seeing that you sent me this email quite some time ago, and am wondering if you, at this point, have used the juicer for almond butter?

It works very well. I have a protein yogurt frozen fruit smoothie and it mixes with no problems.

I have not tried that yet. I have been using it for green smoothies, which it does fairly well. A few small chunks here and there

It works great for making almond butter. It comes out super creamy. I use raw almonds and do not add anything else.

Depends on what you are making. I made the mistake of making a pretty thick smoothie that didn't mix too well until I added more juice. As long as you have enough liquid in it to allow the ingredients to move, the blender works very well.

Absolutely! In a much better way. That is actually the reason why I purchased the blender and I'm extremely satisfied with its performance. Speaking of, I have a batch in the fridge. Throw in nuts it's awesome.

It's been almost a year since I had this, I returned it cause it didn't work well. I don't really remember if I used it to make nut milk or not. I now use the blendtec and it does a wonderful job, but you do need to use the nut bag but that certainly isn't a biggie. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

Yes. I've had no trouble with this. I love this blender; it's great for making soups.

I have not used it for Dosa butter. But I have found the Ninja Blender to be a much more efficient and all inclusive blender.

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 have made almond butter with a blendtec, I believe it has about 2000 Watts. The machine smoked and almost burned. Try to stir peanut butter with a spoon to get an idea what will happen to a high Speed blender. With care you can make almond butter with a blendtec. But I bet you will burn this nutribullet in 30 seconds. They are not made for differing Speeds and differing things, only for high Speed Juice.

I've used it to make peanut butter, but not almond butter. Really great machine for everything I've tried.

I haven't tried it myself yet (only smoothies and baking so far) but I think it would work with strong-flavored soups with a creamy base (to cover up the texture. I would whisk it in to some milk or broth first, too, to avoid clumps.

I also grind nuts into flour and nut butter but I prefer my Blentec blender for this job because of the HP. This does can do this job as well but it will probably burn out it used for long periods of time.

I didn't like mine, I try to make applesauce and that was a bust. I don't think it would work. I alway used a blender to make mine baby food.

I have never done chickpeas in this blender...however, I really like it. I have not had any problems with it and we make smoothies with fresh or frozen fruit and it comes out nice and smooth. Does the job. I have never had to stir up or shift the food around like I have had to do on other blenders.
