I believe that it can crack a Macadamia nuts. It does a great job on pecans so it should work on Macadamia nuts.

We have no idea, but it does crack Pecans with ease. You might go on a Macadamia Nuts site and talk to someone. Sure wish we could have help you. Good luck.. Joy

Haven't tried. Wouldn't need much pressure to crack a peanut shell with this device, but not sure if the internal contact points are small enough.

this is an one hand job, use only one hand. after cracking the nuts, there is cracking sound, just turn your hand over, the nutcracker upside down, then everything come out from the open end right away, you either use your another hand to get everything, pick up the shelled nut. the size of this tool for smaller nuts such as pinenuts, hazelnuts, macdamianuts, little smaller for walnuts.

Yes you should be able to use just one hand to crack the nuts. I only cracked pecans so far but was very easy to use.

While this would work it's a little bit of overkill as it was designed for tougher nuts. This is how we do pecans and it works great, especially since you get complete halves most of the time. Hope this helpshttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zGSR8t0bYRw

I just nicely cracked a small hazelnut. For pine nuts I don't know, my guess is what you want to crack has to be at least 6 to 8 mm in diameter. The best woud be to send a mail to Drosselmeyer at : info@drosselmeyer.se

In all sincerity, can any nut cracker be used by just one hand? This nut cracker is in my storage drawer. I find it almost useless. If one hand can hold on to it, and the nut is small enough, give it a try. It might pop out when you squeeze the handle. Personally, I would not buy it again. I was disappointed in usIng it, but you might like it, depending on the nut you prefer. Hard shell pecans did not crack well for me. English walnuts crack fairy well, with one hand over the top; they tend to move up when you try to crack them.

No. It's a grinder. It would probably just grind up peanuts into smaller pieces.

Wouldn't think that would be a problem. Might try placing different ways to see which is best way to crack.

Yes the whip does crack, however, the cracker doesn't last as long as what it should. So you should probably look into getting a different whip. Unless you know how to make crackers for a bull whips, then you shouldn't have a problem.

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.

It's not hard to squeeze the handle, if that's what you mean. I've not tried Brazil nuts. It opens pecans well. I bought it for pistachios that weren't open at all. This product is made of solid metal. The first one I received would not come apart. Amazon kindly refunded that order and I purchased another. The second one works fine.

Have not tried Macadamia Nut Oil to make mayo. I believe it would be great.

I used this nutcracker primarly for the black walnuts. The only cracker that can handle a shell this thick. you will have no problem with cracking pecans.

It will pick up acorns but it may hurt the impeller chopping them eventually. The metal impeller is much stronger than the plastic one in my older model that I replaced with this model so it may not be bothered by the nuts.

This is mostly a meat grinder. I am afraid it would turn nuts into a pulverized state or even slight paste. Although, Weston All-Purpose Seed, Nut and Spice Grinder might serve the purpose.

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