can I use raw nut to make nut butter

I have not used it for this, but, honestly, don't see why not. This is one powerful chopper!

Yes, but keep in mind the mini chopper is not made for thick type batters. For instance...Do not put raisins in it as it will cause the motor to overwork and smoke. Keep your foods 'light' and 'moving' in the chopper. I'm very impressed with this little mini chopper..extremely impressed! I have absolutely no regrets with this little powerful mini chopper!!!!!!!

I have not used it to make peanut butter from raw nuts, but it did puree dried figs (quartered and soaked in Marsala) very nicely. It should work on nuts.

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

With the Tribest SW-2000-B Slow Star Juicer you use the mincing attachment to make nut butters. The mincing attachment uses the auger and not the screen. When you run nuts through the machine with the mincing attachment on, the nuts will come out almost powdery the first time through. You may want to run the nut ingredients through up to 5 times to get a creamy consistency. The more you run the nut mixture through, the creamery it gets. You also may want to add a little neutral tasting oil to you nut butter to increase the creaminess. Many commercial nut butters have added oil. The oil can be added when the nuts go through the machine or after you are done running the nuts through the machine. I hope this information helps you. VeggieSensations

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.

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 should contact the seller. In my experience, raw nuts are never salted.

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 almond butter.

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 you can, I regularly make nut butters. For me it takes about 20mins at the most to get the nuts I've used so far to a smooth consistency (peanuts, hazelnuts). The blades do get build-up from process, so if you plan on making several batches, just wash the blades between batches in order to get the best results each time.

I recently made cashew butter with this model. I don't own a dry container, but the wet container worked great - very easy and yummy. Just pour in at least four cups of nuts (I like raw and organic the best) and use the tamper to push the nuts down into the blade. The only problem is getting every delicious bite out of the bottom of the container!

Yup. Well, I've only made almond butter, but I would think it's the same. I've also made raw cereal with it.

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. I made almond butter and chocolate. Like the first responder says, it's best to grind ingredients with a food processor or a coffee grinder first. The almond butter came out fine. When left a few days, a lot of oil came to the top.

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.

Unless Artisana has changed their sources, this is made from pasteurized, California almonds. If you're looking for raw almond butter from non-pasteurized almonds, you can Google "non-pasteurized raw almond butter."

We would not suggest using Raw Spanish Peanuts for making peanut butter for your grandchildren specifically because of the skins that are on the peanuts. You would use a Peanut Butter Stock or you could use a Roasted, No Salt Peanut, or a Blanched Peanut (either Raw or Roasted No Salt). For more information you may contact us at Western Mixers/Nutsite. Thanks!

I have never used them to make nut milk so can't answer that question. I buy the ones that are 20% halves with pieces and also the ones that are whole. I like the Kirkland brand as they arrive fresh tasting and if refrigerated stay fresh until they are used up.
