@@barbaraeinzig4257 I’ve always wanted to try almond butter, but never have. It’s kind of expensive and I am on a very limited budget because I live on nothing more than Social Security income. I have to go to the food pantry for food security… They have never given me any almonds or peanuts, but they have given me a few bags of walnuts and pecans though. Do you think those would make decent nut butters or no? I don’t think I’ve seen anyone make nut butters with those types of nuts. I was randomly gifted a Vitamix last Christmas from my mother, so I would like to experiment with making a nut butter one of these days with it!

So whenever I want to make nut butters I have to make sure I'll be at home at least 2 hours. I get there in the end, but I just can't complete the whole blending in a single session.

Apparently EU version is different from USA version because of the safety requirements. This is why some of the containers in USA sites cannot be used for EU version. Thats what I was told when I enquired about purchasing USA containers. So I'm guessing maybe that's why some have issues with the usage and some don't .... are you still facing the same issues now?

I already changed 3 containers. Vitamix said you can't make a butter running the machine for more than 1 min. otherwise the connector (I don't know how it calls) pops out from the bottom of the cup and it becomes wobbly. from Haydee: "Our repair technician received your machine for service and it is working on it right now. He called me to advised me why you are having the problem. You are making nut butters and you are running the machine too long. When processing nut butters you cannot run machine more than one minute. If you run machine too long the container gets very hot and it will start to melt causing the blade to melt into the container. "

I've been making homemade almond butter in my Vitamix for about 15 years now, which I started doing because nobody was selling organic sprouted almond butter at the time, let alone even regular, non-organic almond butter. I used to have to buy organic almonds, sprout and dehydrate them, then blend them down in the Vitamix. We've come a long was since then, and now you can buy sprouted almonds, almond butter, organic sprouted almonds, organic almond butter, and even sprouted organic almond butter (which is the most difficult to find and quite expensive). Roasting the almonds first makes for the best flavor and texture, but I don't mind losing a little bit of that the way I make mine (if using sprouted almonds, it's best to go slow so it doesn't get too hot while blending them in the vitamix). Also, Vitamix's have come a long way since I bought mine in 2008!- nut butter and cleaning cycle settings?! Great video!

My oven temperature in selected by increments of 10, so I bake the almonds at 180 Celsius. I bake them for exactly 14 minutes and remove the immediately to cool. During processing I use 3 tablespoons of coconut oil to make the resulting almond butter smoother and more easily spreadable / less thick.

Thank you for this!! I just made it in my Vitamix- and I totally thought it was going to overheat, but it turned out great! Just curious- I see so many other videos on KZfaq where people are making Almond Butter in a Vitamix in 1-2 minutes. Do you know how they're able to do this? It seems like their methods are the same- roasting the raw almonds, letting them cool beforehand, but my Vitamix definitely needed about 8-9 minutes of blend time on high. There was no way it would have been done in a minute or two. Have you ever been able to make the almond butter without blending so long?
@TolgahanBozkurt 3 жыл бұрын
I have E310 and I made this in 1 minute tops. In fact even the method in this video is wrong. I prefer not to poke around with the tamper and quickly you’ll see the nuts will start to become creamy and create that vortex effect like you’re making a smoothie. And with that affect, you’ll have a nut butter in 1 to 2 minutes at max depending on how much nut you put. I tried it with 550 grams of cashews and it only took around 60 to 70 seconds. I’m talking about silky smooth, almost watery like nut butter, not chunky. I only used the tamper in the first few seconds and that was to clean the sides where nuts stuck. I didn’t push down in the center. If, however, you’re poking around with the tamper, you’re not giving it the chance to create the vortex effect. That way it’ll take longer.

You say this is RAW and you baked the almonds! :-) Also slightly warm almonds grind Much Better than room temperature or cold. Also the Vitamix Scraper Accessory is Essential for Scraping out the nut butter without ruining other rubber or silicone scrapers which don't work well and get damaged. I CELEBRATE whomever designed that scraper because it saves a lot of frustration getting your nut butter out!!

Can you over-blend?? My almond butter wasn't as liquid as yours so I kept blending and it started coming out of the bottom! I didn't realize this until it was quite the mess. It was all over my landing pad and took forever to clean the bottom as so much got stuck between the black piece and underside of the bottom of the container. Praise God I didn't give up and got it clean (I know you're not supposed to take that piece apart, and I didn't), but also praise God for Vitamix customer service! She suggested next time to do 3 cups instead of 4 (I have a 48 oz container and Vitamix previously told me min 2 cups, max 4 cups). I did everything else exactly as you guys shared in your video. It never overheated either. And very strange, but it got more liquid after sitting a little while. What did I do?! 😆 I just read through several comments, and it sounds like it still got too hot and melted the seal?? I want to keep making almond butter and not be afraid of using my Vitamix! I read perhaps just running it for 1 minute at a time? How long do I wait in between minutes of blending? Love your channel - thank you!

Tried to make a small portion - only 300 grams. Did not work well. I followed all the other instructions. Apparently the low weight was not enough to push the almonds down to the knives although i used the plunger. After some 15 minutes I got a paste but quite grainy. By the way the Vitamix book tells you to add oil - it is not my intention to add extra calories to the already quite fatty butter.

I made this on Sunday but my blender overheated. I have a 3300 model and got an error message. After googling it, I realized it was the failsafe. Sucks, but oh well. I think I may have been running it on too low of a speed, which made the motor work harder than it needed to. I should have ran it at a low speed for a few moments and then cranked it up to 10 for the rest of the time.

I am starting to make homemade almond milk...and almond butter eventually. Can you tell me how to soak raw almonds (about one cup) and how much water and salt to use. Hope my 2011 Vitamin 5200 can do it, never failed me yet!
@marciedesmond7157 4 жыл бұрын
I soak mine overnight. Then dump the soaking water and rinse the almond. After soaking, put the cup of nuts in the blender with the desired amount of water - I use 4 cups of water to one cup of nuts. You can vary the ratio of water to nuts to get the level of creaminess you want. Some people do 2 cups of water to one cup of nuts for a creamier consistency. Some people do 6:1 to make it more economical but I find that a little watery. 6:1 think skim milk, 4:1 think whole milk and 2:1 like half and half!
