does it shell lima beans

Yes, it does, however you need to feed them through pretty much one at a time and it is best to make sure they are wet.

I actually got this for my Dad. He says it works better on Lima beans than his peas. Hope this helps!

I don't know if it will shell Lima beans but it should it shelled pinto beans with no problem and they are about the same size

I haven't tried it on beans but it's on everything else just fine. It's well constructed and a sturdy tool so it should work.

I have heard that it does, but I wear modular and have no experience with half shells

it worked excellent to mash cooked beans. I use it all the time. It is the best one i had so far.

yes it does, you just need to get the shell for it or have something it can fit into

No. You pur the beans in the hopper, you put water in the reservoir. Put your cup under the spout. Press the button and out comes a delicious cup of coffee.

Yes it does. But it's good for browning things. You just need to use plastic to stir-not metal.

Yes! That's the setup I have now. It gets a little stretched out, so going back to no shell might be a loose it.

No it doesn't. The degree of douse grind is a function of how long the user grinds the beans.

No Cavatelli does not make a shell shape it makes a tight curl that looks like a tight gnocchi I hope this helps.

I would say no. The openings are probably not narrow enough to hold the shells.

No, it only tells you how to bake the shells. I went on line to find recipes for Tortilla salads.

Yes, it does. Better get a traditional espresso cup or a very small tin one.

As I understand it, sand is a little softer and will cushion your hits a bit more, however the beans would toughen up your hands more. I think it's mostly just personal preference. I filled it with sand, I would imagine that beans would have to be replaced at some point due to breakage.

I've never used mine for anything but potatoes (& it works great!). My gut response is to say no, I think the bean skins would clog the holes.

NO!!! It says it does but the first time I tried, the metal cutter in the center broke. Kitchen aid, send me another jug and it got loose and impossible to fix the way it is made. Even mashing bananas would loosen the "cutter" and leak all over. It ended in the bin. I had bought it because it said it has a ice cube setting. The base is really heavy and strong, too bad the top is not of the same quality.

I have not tried it for that. It might work although it would depend on how sharp the shells are. I use it with the micro-plane(grater) so that I do not take off the skin from my knuckles. Sorry I can't be of more help. Good luck.
