Re: Peanut butter_Small container

[Guest guest]

Is anyone using the small container for nut butters? I am assuming that I would

use half of the volume of nuts in this container (1 1/2 cups) vs the 64oz

container at 3 cups??

Hello Carol, It still takes at least 2.5 cups to easily make nuts - there is no significant difference in the size of the 32 oz. wet container at the bottom. You could use fewer nuts (give 1.5 cups a try) but you will need to use your tamper over, and over, and over because you will form REPEATED air pockets. Every time you push the tamper in one corner, a new air pocket will form and you will need to push the tamper again to pop it.

Hello - it depends on you and how you would use it. There is a lot of helpful information to help you decide here: Links > 2 - Container Questions/links/2___Container_Questions_001327025225/
