No it does not make but butter. It is predominantly used to make batter using rice and different kind of dhals. This batter can be used to make dosa or idli

I have the non-tilting Premier Wonder, 1.5L. I use it to make peanut butter, chocolate and even pulverize blackberries to make jam without getting seeds stuck in our teeth. Made about 10 batches of each so far, but you should add dry stuff very slowly, preferably partially liquefied.

Iam happy with this product. Delivered on time and so far no issues. Doesnt make much noise. Easy to handle but little heavy that is acceptable because of the stone.

Hi Paula.. honestly have not tried.. but cannot imagine that it will be difficult.. The machine is based on stones running against each other and we routinely grind rice. Rice is quite hard and hopefully almonds can be ok too... But.. no clue if the apparatus is a good option for the almond butter process overall.. Hope this is useful.. take care.. Rajesh

I have made almond butters that are amazing. I did have to add oil, just as with a Vitamix. Almonds are hard, and more difficult to process than other nuts. I tried soaking raw almonds and it did not work. just became a gooey mess which I threw out. With the roasted almonds I find I have to pulse manually and use the stick, and it takes longer than the advertised minute. But, end result is great. Cleaning is easy. warm water a drop of dish soap and use the cleaning program. Then again with just warm water.

I make nut butters using a earlier version of this processor, and I accidentally stumbled onto the key to making almond butter in a flash (works with other nuts, too.) I microwaved 3/4 cup roasted almonds (raw works, too) until they were quite warm, but not hot. I put them immediately into the food processor bowl and started it up. I stepped away for a few minutes to make a cup of coffee -- thinking that even with the warm nuts it would take at least 10 minutes to make butter. However, when I stepped back the butter was done! Using the pre-heated method makes smooth butter in a few minutes, with no danger of over-heating the motor.

No I have never used it to make nut butters however I've used the whip attachment to make mayonnaise? I would think you would use the multi-purpose blade to break up the nuts to a paste, then may be use the mincer or something to smooth it out? Probably would help to use a tall narrow vessel such as the 600 mL beaker.

Yes, you can. The time will vary, but as long as you keep at it, this machine will make almond butter. At first it will look like a lot of chopped nuts, possibly powder. Let it continue. It'll start looking clumpy and slightly wet. After a while, it becomes smooth. Mine takes less than 15 minutes.

Not sure what you're trying to make, but I'd say no. I put in peanuts (only), turn it on, and get peanut butter. I'm not making any additions, nor is there anyway to grind the nuts less. It is good peanut butter though.

Yes. I put almonds in it to make almond milk. I just have to add them in with water. If you want to make nut butter you'd have to use the mincer attachment.

Yes, I make almond and cashew butters all the time on this machine, using no added oils. Simply put whole nuts, turn machine on, and let it go. I stop mine every few mins, let it rest for a min or so, and then turn it back on. I do NOT add any oil. Be patient...you'll think it's not going to turn out, but keep the machine running and it will. The cashew butter in particular is fantastic.

I used it to make pasteles, which is a traditional Puerto Rican holiday dish. It was capable of grinding bananas and other hard vegetables to a pasty consistency, so I guess it will work for the nut butters you mention.

Yes I have. I make almond butter. I takes a lot longer without oil, so the second time I uses a little almond oil and it was much better. The third time I made it I used a little almond oil and a little melted coconut oil. omg! it is GREAT.

You really want a blender for creamy nut butters - you can do the initial chopping in a food processor, but a blender will give you better results. :)

I use it every other day to make Pommogranate juice. I also tried other berries like Blue-, Black- or Rasberry. But it didn't work outo. I never tried any nut butters. Sorry Rainer

It came with a smaller container that is supposed to be for food processing. Yes, you definitely can make milk shakes. But, I have no idea if it could make peanut butter. I wanted it to make smoothies, but it does not chop or blend frozen fruit well at all. That is why I bought it, so I was disappointed from that aspect. I would just be concerned that if it can not chop frozen fruit well, it may not successfully blend peanuts into peanut butter.

Sorry, but don't know. Simply have never tried using it for this, or any other butters yet. Great for everything we have tried thus far though.

Yes, it has a blank to do nut butters. This is a fabulous juicer, had mine for 30 years and still the same!

Yes you can and no oil! Go to google. Type in myfrugaladventures.com/.../easy-homemade-almond-butter It tells you how to what to and enjoy.

I've made a nut "cream" with soaked cashews and the soaking liquid, with good results. I use my food processor for nut butters, and wouldn't even try it in this blender. I think that it wouldn't work well and it looks like it would be a pain to scrape a nut butter out of ANY blender. UPDATE: I decided to try it myself. This blender had no problems being adequately powered for the job. The cashew butter that I made turned out much smoother and creamier than with my food processor. I did need to add water so that it would blend without my scraping the sides every few seconds. But when I refrigerate it, it will be solid enough.
