Is it good for macadamia nuts?

It cuts off about 1/4" off the end of the shell. Given the shape of macadamia nuts, I'm not optimistic that it would work well with them.

I love this nut cracker! Works well with Brazil nuts, pecans, filberts, almonds and walnuts. I haven't used it on hickory nuts, but feel confident that it would work. This nut cracker is adjustable for various diameters of nuts. I would recommend using it inside a shallow box indoors or to use it outdoors. Enjoy!

SnowyJay, have you used this for herbs, nuts, seeds, dried dandelion root, etc? If not, what did you end up buying? I am interested in purchasing ONE mill - mostly used for nut, seed, dry roots.

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.

It's not really designed for small nuts- you would have a hard time keeping a little nut like a pistachio in place. It is really designed for large, very tough nuts.

I haven't used it for chopping nuts but I can't see where it would be a problem. I am on my second chopper and I wouldn't buy another type.

We have macadamia nut trees and the nutcracker makes it so much easier! It works really well!

Yes - some how it works out - I put the nuts in a nylon knee high stocking and tie it with a knot. It is good for smaller loads or delicate things. You should buy a small amount to start with and make sure you like it. I have recently found a laundry product called ECOS it is a environmental friendly product and I love it. It really cleans well - I purchase it on VITACOST.

It does much better with dry ingredients than wet. Just tried it with peanuts and it worked well. The only problem I encountered is that while some nuts were ground fine, others were hardly touched. Good idea to shake the container half way through.

If the nuts are chopped fine it might work. If not then add the nuts as a topping for the muffins. Use work for mini muffin tins. Has great control of the amount of batter dispensed

I do not know about macadamia nuts. The only nut we have tried is the pecan and it worked great. Some of the pecans were not papershell--don't know if this will help you any or not.

Probably, although I haven't had occasion to use it for nuts. Have mostly used it for parsley, onions, carrots, other veggies.

100% macadamia nut oil with a beautiful full flavor of nuts. It doesn't work for everything but I love veges cooked in it. I mistakenly made mayonnaise once, that did not work. I love this stuff. It tastes decadent.

Yes you can grind nuts, but i don't know what is your expectation on the result. I used it to grind nuts and it worked for me.

I use it only for chopping vegetables. I would avoid it for nuts as the body is plastic...
