Are Rice Krispies too small for this machine? Will it crush Captain Crunch?

Nope, haven't had issues with any cereal. I had both those in there and they were fine.

this machine is well designed. The delivery wheel at the bottom is flexible so it will not crush nor let small pellets like rice krispie escape at ease. In addition, it does have a cover for both holes to keep the content fresh. I definitely recommended.

I don't see how Rice Krispies or Captain Crunch would be a problem. We have used ours for corn flakes and cheerios with no problem. We have had ours for at least 2 yrs. and my husband uses it all the time, works great... he even refills it! :)

This will "rice" anything soft. I think it would be ideal for making baby food.

Depends on the size of a box. If there's an OXO that holds 32 oz, it will hold 32 oz of cereal. I think.

Hi, It makes a decent size donut, little over 2 & 1/2 inches. They are at least twice as big as the "mini" donut maker size. I get two to three bites per donut, and can only eat two or three at a time. I love them because I'm on a low fat diet and can make them with a basic cake recipe using egg substitutes, buttermilk, and canola oil. I make different kinds by adding bananas, strawberries, nuts, cocoa, sugar, spices, etc. Try using biscuit mix or cake mix. Don't make the batter too thin. Enjoy!

I think they would be too small. I served bread pudding and it was about 2 bites of pudding. Worked great for me though!

You can make crunch rice, but the bowl needs to be really hot and the rice needs to be not too moist. If the rice is too moist, it cools off the bowl before the rice crisps.Since this bowl is thick ceramic instead of stone,it does not hold the heat quite as well, but it is certainly sufficient.I clean mine with vegetable oil and a paper towel just like I do with terra cotta bakeware and cast iron. Food should not stick to it, but if it does, you can use a plastic scraper.

I think this is as small a processor that you are going to find that dose the work like a big machine. I do not have much Counter space either so one of them big machines would not work for me and this saves me time and I do not find it hard to clean.

I don't think you could use it for larger cereals, like shredded wheat, or maybe even mini-wheats. But certainly granola, lucky charms, cheerios sized things will definitely go through it. I use mine for parrot food and the pieces are about the size of cheerios, some a little larger. It works great.

this machine is great, but t only makes 3-4 cups at a time. i suggest getting Ben & Jerry's ice cream book because their recipes are about this size. the French Vanilla is oui oui !!

I served brownie shooters and there was not a lot of space., I don't think you can get enough fruit in the cup to be satisfying. I really liked the size for what I served but I think they may be to small for that.

Its a little small for the really large boxes of cereal. I bought the buddeez all-purpose dispenser with handle ($14.62) for the larger boxes of cereal. The cereal box itself won't fit but I remove and open cereal bag, slide it into the dispenser, cut out the front of the cardboard box and slide it in along side the bag (do back of box if kids like the games!), then fit the lid on - tucking the pour spout into the cereal bag. Works perfectly!

Yes. Some of the "value size" boxes of cereal will fit but others will not.

The slots are too small for smoothies. Look for xox cups, etc for toddlers. They are great.

May be there's something wrong with your machine? are you using the right kind of sugar? I noticed that if I put more sugar than I'm supposed to it doesn't make as much cotton candy and it comes out crunchy. Good luck!

It will definitely crush ice and rip through softer foods, but it is not compact the shaft is probably around 11 inches in length. But the thing has plenty -o-power.

Not to my knowledge. I often pop Ladyfinger popcorn (I like hulless corn) and it is about half the size of regular corn. I will say that larger kernels pop very large and fluffy but that is as much a function of variety. I have never tried 'rice popcorn' I'll have to give it a look. I don't use salt during the pop as that can make the kernels smaller and more tough. I pour in my corn, mix the oil with the popcorn with a fork to make sure each kernel is coated, then pop for a little under 2 minutes. I get nice, crunchy corn and I toss on the salt as soon as it leaves the microwave. VERY nice. But I have never seen any restriction on kernel size.

I was thinking about using larger hardware store chips and just grinding them in my Vitamix. I think it should work.
