I've never tried, but you can adjust the grinding mechanism from fine to coarse so I'm guessing you could.

I don't know if I can completely answer your question, but I'll say what I can. While I'm not a professional chef, I've used it to foam several times with the standard SS blade attachment. I've also used the food processor to chop nuts, but with quite varied results in size. I've never tried grinding anything as I have a small coffee grinder that I've dedicated for spice grinding that does an excellent job. I would still recommend this product to anyone interested! Hope that helps!

Oh yes, it can grind nuts, pulse them if you don't want them finely ground.

Yes i have used it for grinding sesame, nutmeg, cinnamon, red whole chillies, coriander seeds, cashews etc. Grinds all of them to fine powder. Though I have never ground walnuts, I believe that the grinder will be able grind walnuts too.

This isn't what you'd use for nuts - this would turn them into mush.This grinder is for meat.

I wouldn't try it due to the oil content in the almonds. The machine could plug and it is very hard to clean out. Might try using a hand mill that can be easily cleaned. If it clumps or balls up in the hand mill it will probably plug the electric one. IF the almonds are very dry and I mean very dry then maybe, but I won't try it in my mill.

Yes, but you have to pack it in tightly and pulse it sporadically so it won't liquify. I have only tried it with whole almonds and it seems to work fine that kind of nut. Good luck!

I am sure you can use the machine with any kind of beans or nuts, I didn't try with almond yet but I did with black eye pea & soybean, it came out perfect.

I grind nuts in it often and it works great. The trick is to let them completely cool after toasting them, before putting them through the grinder

In general, no. You need the Wonder Junior to do a good job with nuts and seeds. However, there are a select few things like this it can grind. To answer your specific question, though, it CANNOT grind almond nuts, and it will VOID the warranty if you attempt it. Please contact us for more information on this mill or the Wonder Junior (its hand operated sister unit). We also sell other machines that would do the job very well.

It did a wonderful job on both almonds and peanuts. Coarsely ground and would be ideal for baking.

We tried making almond butter with this blender and were not successful. It's partially our fault for thinking that if you soak the nuts for a few hours it would help blended them up faster. We have not tried since then. I know this does not necessarily answer your question but thought I would share my experience.

No, I have only used it for coffee. I think that grinding moist substances, like ginger and garlic, would not work well unless it was fully loaded. I wouldn't do this with my mine.

No you should not do it , because manufacturer suggest that you should not grind anything that has oil as far as I know almond does contain oil.

Yes - I use it to grind all sorts of things to make Ezekiel bread - chick peas, lentils, quinoa, millot, etc. Works great!
