I would like to grade walnuts and almonds for baking...can it grate them without them being all sticky?

I grind nuts in it often and it works great. The trick is to let them completely cool after toasting them, before putting them through the grinder

I've never worked with Walnut before but I wouldn't suggest using these bits on a hardwood. I used them on pine and experienced some burning after long use. I have a Bosch 3/4 straight bit that I use for hardwoods.

Have not tried it but I seriously doubt it. With any humidity--the sugar would stick it shut! It's made for grains--& I like the fact that it doesn't powder the grain to a fine cake flour. I mostly make Whole Wheat breads-artisan style, heavy & chewy!

It can grind it to that texture. I don't think it can get as fine as flour though.

Yes. It will work much better than putting whole almonds through a blender or food processor. Just make sure you get the BLANCHED almond meal flour.

Greetings,Not sure I would use it on nuts and seeds, they may have too much oils in them and it would be hard to clean the stones. I have only used it to make wet batters and it works great. Hope that helps

It will work great for almonds. Just cut the large end and the nut will slip right out.

I have made almond butters that are amazing. I did have to add oil, just as with a Vitamix. Almonds are hard, and more difficult to process than other nuts. I tried soaking raw almonds and it did not work. just became a gooey mess which I threw out. With the roasted almonds I find I have to pulse manually and use the stick, and it takes longer than the advertised minute. But, end result is great. Cleaning is easy. warm water a drop of dish soap and use the cleaning program. Then again with just warm water.

I've used them without greasing, or parchment....cookies did not stick. I did use a recipe that required allot of butter so maybe that's why. They do clean easy. Good luck!

It all depends on how close the prongs are. I used the rake for small figs and apricots that were too high for me to reach. Since the rake has an extender you can go quite high. I'm sure it will work for walnuts

I haven't tried it. Are you trying to create slivered almonds? If you want chopped walnuts or almonds, use a Pampered Chef chopper; just a few chops and your done.

I live at high altitude so baking is a real challenge. Therefore I rely on my gas oven which is more temperature consistent. I have only baked prepackaged baked goods, puff pastry items etc and it does well with those.

This machine is made specially for walnuts. It is not suitable for harder nuts

I haven't tried, but I think it would only work on larger nuts like walnuts, almonds, etc.
