Can you use it to make vegetarian burgers make of lentils and barley?

I don't know why not. This device is just to shape patties. I don't think it would matter what you are shaping. Word of advice: put wax paper on both top and bottom of whatever you are pressing.

Yes you can! I have juiced thick kale, celery and many coarse veggies. Not wheat grass yet. In the book it says it works fine. I am not sure about the attachment. Make sure the inner core is well oiled. I use coconut oil so the rotating device with tiny teeth like blades rotate smoothly.

Betty ,I have never tried that but I woul think no. Whatever is milled must be fairly soft .......tomatoe, boiled potatoes etc. I think you would be much happier with a small hand meat grinder. Here is the least expensive example I found. Starfrit 093347 Manual Meat Grinder

To be honest I have only used it to blend oatmeal, bananas, peanut butter and milk, so I can't really say how it would handle those veggies. If those veggies were in water or chicken stock I bet they would blend fine.

You can cook and eat this barley, however, you may not enjoy it because it is unhulled. I would suggest buying hulled barley, where the seed hull has been removed (think about eating sunflower seeds with the shell still on, versus without it). If you want to grind this unhulled barley into flour, it would be fine for that. But for the sake of eating, I would definitely go for hulled barley. Enjoy!

No. My first hamburgers were very big. So decided to use 1/3 c. meat on each layer. You can stuff with bread stuffing like used in a turkey, then serve covered with beef gravy, no bun the bread is inside. A pizza burger with pepperoni, cheese, mushrooms and etc. The possibilities are endless. Try ground chicken, sausage. Good eating! DSM

I have only used it for meat. The item description says, "Crush beans, vegetables and nuts for spreads and pâté; grind beef chuck, round or sirloin for incredible homemade hamburgers; pulverize stale bread for breadcrumbs; or break up veggies for baby food." Other than that, I can't help you.

Yes you can. I made cheddar cheese biscuits with it. Little bit of a warning it will be too orange.

Hi, You most certainly can use the Ateco food ring mold set to shape burger patties. Thank you, Golda's Kitchen

You could, but it has the hulls on it, so it will not cook up like the pearl barley you can get at the grocery store. It would be very high in fiber, and maybe not pleasant to eat. But it would be edible.

you can. I am a vegan chef and use these a lot. I would peel first though. For grains, I would soak them first but still, it can even be used as a mill to make things like flax powder. If you want more advanced techniques, I have machines with 3 button capabilities and different carafes, one for dry and one for wet ingredients. Feel free to ask me any more questions. Joe Lucier

Yes. After the soymilk is made you must strain it using the included strainer/sieve. The remaining soy solids from the beans that you separated are called "okara". It is very good for making a number of foods. I like to mix the okara with another veggie burger product I buy and fry it in a little bit of oil until it's crispy for a nice burger sandwich.

Yes you can, it is a great product. I love it. this grill is very good for chicken, meat and fish. it worth it to spend the money on it. It is a good investment.

Yes for burgers or thin chicken breasts. Tried a London broil and it didn't cook well. Had to slice it up and then cook again. Meat dried out. But I've done marinated chicken and burgers with no problem

This is mainly designed for beverages. If you try it for mashed veges I would add some stock to the cooked veges.

I never tried that, but it does an adequate job with frozen fruits (while they are still frozen), so I would think this item would be a good and inexpensive way to blend cooked fruits and veggies for the wee one.

Yes. meat grinders work great on vegetables. If you like reibekuchen or kartoffelpuffer (German potato pancakes), this is the fastest, easiest way to make them. Much easier than grating the potatoes, and the texture is the same.
