Has anyone tried this shaker with crushed red pepper flakes? If so do they flow out at a decent rate? TKS

Hormel Bacon Bits goes through the shaker good. Parsley Flakes and Onion Flakes will flow through at a descent rate. I haven't tried Red Pepper Flakes. Be sure the top is secure, because sometimes it comes off while shaking the container.

I serve red pepper flakes in a small ceramic dish with a small wooden spoon. No shaker needed.

Haven't tried it for that but it's great for sprinkling semolina on your pizza peel. Looks good and feels good in the hand as well.

I ususally put a large leaf of kale in my shake, stem and all. I don't know if I'd say liquify, but it definitely doesn't leave chunks. I'd say the one thing is could liquify a little better would be the ginger. I only use a little but it's very strong. I've used celery, spinach, half of an apple with seeds removed but skin on. My shakes are drinkable no spoon needed. I used plain yogurt and water as my liquid at the beginning, now I use almond milk. Yum.

I've found that when I use it in my shaker cup it mostly dissolves. Sometimes I will get bits that aren't completely dissolved but it's not too often. And it's not like it's a mouth full of powder either.

I use it to make shakes with ice cubes. Crushes the ice very well. I have also made home made dressings, grinds spices that are in oil well. I have not tried to grind a chile pepper though. Not sure how fine ground you need it though. I don't think it would pulverize it. There are two blades in the small container and three in the larger. I am very happy with it for my needs.

If I don't use my salt shaker for 3or4 days the Celtic salt has a tendency to cake up. Maybe that will help you determine if they use any flow agents.

Mine does the same thing in a shaker bottle, however if you just let it sit for a moment then SWIRL the contents together at the bottom of the bottle (including the foam) it'll all even back out again. :) Hope this helps!

This product will mix well in a shaker. I mixed in 1litre water bottles with mio type flavorings. Product mixed well by shaking. Very cost effective. If it clumped it shook out easily.

I've never tried this, so I did a "shake test" for you. Using the 1/2 gallon pitcher (I think the 1 gallon would be rather heavy to shake) I filled it 1/2 way with water, put the lid back on, and made sure the pour cap was securely in the closed position. First I shook it vigorously in an upright position. No problem - the lid stayed tight and the cap didn't open. Next I turned it upside down without shaking - there was a very slight drip from around the cap. Then I shook it as if I were mixing the contents while it was upside down, and there were only a few drips from around the cap. Forgot to test while shaking side to side. My recommendation would be to put a folded paper towel or cloth over the lid/cap while shaking and put one hand there. I don't think the lid will come off or the cap fly open, but better to be safe than sorry. I should note that my pitchers were purchased several years ago; I can't speak for the quality of ones sold today. Like it or not, sometimes quality changes.

When I use the plant Fusion, I mix it with cooked cooled rice. I like mixing my shake mix with something, it keeps me full longer. I think it has A good taste.

Are you blending it or using a shaker? When I blend it, I don't find it grainy at all. Even if it were grainy, I still think it's a great product with high protein and low sugars.

No I never did. I out mine in the dish washer and it ages like any used wooden spoon which in my opinion makes it better. It is a little big so have a large cocktail shaker in metal or you will hate it. If large it works nice.

I just looked at the top of mine. I think too much pepper would come out. When you put confectioner's sugar in it, it produces a thin layer of sugar in a couple of shakes.

I give it a little shake when I first fill or refill it, but after that no shaking seems necessary for it stay mixed.

I use mine in a regular shaker and add a little rice to it help with the moisture and helps it to shake out easier. I doesn't shake out quite as easily as regular table salt, but the rice in it helps a LOT.

I did not find it dissolve well in a simple shaker cup. I recommend a blender.

It would depend on how many drinks you had, but generally speaking, it should pour out nicely if it's not a thick mixture being poured!

I am having the same problem. I used the shaker five times and the strainer seemed like it was built in to the top piece. However, the strainer piece came off during my sixth use and it appears, after trying several times, that it is unable to fit back on. My shaker is now useless.
