I would think you would have no problems with Almond Butter and Peanut Butter. The measurements are the same as on the Amazon Website.

I have blended peanut and almonds with water into a very fine drink. If you don't have enough water the blender will overheat and shut off. I have not been able to make pure nut butter, but can finely chop nuts with my muffin batter or green drinks.

Sometimes Amazon does pair up boards with processors for a "deal". I don't recommend the "deals" because it may not suit your uses. It is best to research a processor for what you intend to do. For example, when I purchased this board I was building a gaming computer and a video/photo editing computer. Had I been solely interested in gaming I could have used a high end i5 processor but, because I wanted to do video editing I went with i7 processor with over-clocking capability.Hope this helps.

The manufacturer says you can make peanut butter with this unit. However, if that is all you want to make, I would look at a different solution. This is primarily a "juicer" that has parts to allow you to make peanut butter.

Ok, thanks for all these infos, but I know nothing much about computers except to use them, so I bought a msi u120 because I need to use it for personal office work and web browsing as well as msn chat. I'd also like to install a genealogy program on it. Can anyone tell me if its power will be enough for that. Don't laugh, but I'm pretty lost and I didn't even receive the beast yet. probably sometimes next week. so any advice before I start it and its capacities will be welcome. Don't laugh again, it's the first time in years that I buy myself a computer and my first laptop too.

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'm sorry but I cannot answer that question at all. I am just the purchasing agent for my wife who manages our kitchen. She helped select the processor and we ordered a selection of discs for it. That is the sum of our knowledge on the subject. I wish I could help you but I just cannot. I would suggest calling Cuisinart. They have been very helpful with my questions originally.

Ok, I did get chance to try the chopper to attempt to make some almond butter. It did struggle with the nuts. I pulsed it until it had a chance to break down some of the nuts and then turned it to full "on" button and the unit sort of wobbled to where I had to hold on to it to stabilize it. So, I would say that for this sort of thing, you would definitely need something a bit more powerful. Hope this helps. I actually learned something myself trying this out. :)

Hi Patdownsouth! Thanks - I did end up buying it and am quite happy with it. You're right, there are some major errors with some of the recipe (check out that water content for the 1lb raisin bread) and I'm still looking for a really good whole wheat recipe with seeds/nuts. The two paddles do work well. Mine does have three settings (1-1.5lb, 2lb, and 2.5lb) and it beeps in the middle of the cycle (which is not in the manual, and I need to look next time it does to figure out where in the cycle it is) and I assume that's for adding nuts/seeds/fruit. It is definitely much better than my 14 year old Zo! Hi Patdownsouth! Thanks - I did end up buying it and am quite happy with it.

The best advice I can give you is to return it. Even if it turns on, it is worthless. The motor is very weak and it will not do the job. I had this product and literally threw it away a week after I bought it (I had already threw out the receipt, so I could not return it). It is worthless. Bite the bullet and buy a better mini processor, like a Cuisinart. You will be happy you did.

I know this was asked a long time ago, but in case anyone is looking; Hamilton Beach has the Use and Care guide on their site; http://useandcares.hamiltonbeach.com/files/840174102.pdf And when you go there can clearly see everything that comes with the processor.

you google the board, find the maker, get the manual and read it. Or ask nVidia; whatever, I would not recommend taking technical advice from some anonymous poster. REMINDER: it's AMAZON, buddy, buy it, try it, and return it! EOS. Good luck.

I have used the grinder blade and definitely made peanut butter and almond butter with it. It's pretty amazing. I was actually just attempting to make almond flour out of it for baking purposes and before I knew it, it was butter!

We mixed it without a food processor, and it turned out great. I would probably let it raise a little longer, and do NOT over bake. It is done sooner than it looks. A food processor probably wouldn't hurt. I don't think we even used a mixer (just a spoon) the last time.

It was likely overloading the motor, I love my Kitchen Aid mixer but I have been beyond disappointed in the food processor. I tried to make peanut butter and it couldn't hack it the motor kept stopping. I had a cheapy $40 food processor before this one and it was better than this. Good luck, have you had any luck trying to slice veggies without them all getting stuck up in the lid?

It has plenty of power for nuts. You might have to use pulse mode to mix the nuts up more evenly. IfYou are trying to make peanut butter the problem is it gets so thick it doesn't fall down on the blades so you have to stop and push.

I went on line and got a recipe from a competitor for a 9 or 11 cup food processor. I tried the recipe that called for 4 cups of flour (2 loaves of bread). I may not have followed the recipe steps of adding what when??? It was too much and the processor just couldn't get the dough around the bowl. I put the dough into the bread machine and worked it there and it eventually was worked enough. I tried a 2 cup recipe twice and it made excellent dough both times with about a minutes worth of processing. I have the dough raising for the oven now and it is as nice or nicer than the Kitchen Aide mixer,or the bread machine makes. So yes, for my pizza dough recipe (-2 cups flour) and roll or small bread recipes it will be a snap. I may make up some pre-packaged bags for the freezer to take out and fix in a hurry. I was nervous and kept feeling for any heat from the motor, but nothing.
