I've just been reading this post as love these little cakes and quite a few of you have referred to the hidden vegie pasta sauce. Did anyone make this in TM and can share the recipe? 

I know- the person who sent new blades wasn't the one I spoke to yesterday when I told them the problem is still happening. He kind of reasoned that there's not much else it could be and that maybe it's not a problem??? I'm really not sure.

I've got 6 months left on warranty so no massive hurry, but I'm really not sure if I should keep grinding away when it's sounding like a whipper snipper!

Hi there

I have uploaded to Youtube.  http://youtu.be/pqJ8aVWf87o

This sound is after 40 seconds of the usual loud nut grinding sound (unfort I had to stop half way through as bubs needed me).

I've tested it out some more today and it did NOT do it with 250G of straight ice, but it DID do the same noise with 250G of frozen banana + coconut ice blocks + pecans (was making icecream). Is generally doing it with nut butters all the time now. Doesn't do it when I just turn it up to 9-10 with nothing in it. Doesn't do it when juicing either.

Would appreciate opinions.

Thanks

great idea. thanks. right, off to get nuts to make nut butter again - just as well we eat a lot of it!

Hi All

I've had my TM for a year and a bit and I'm noticing a TERRIBLE noise when I'm using it on high speed for certain things like nuts (making nut paste) and an ice frappe drink I made yesterday and coconut ice cream (also made with ice cubes). I've made nut paste twenty times and never noticed this, but the other day I made a half quantity so wondering if that could be it. Same with the drink and ice cream - I only made small amounts.  

But it's not the ice/ hard things, as it's fine for my morning juice in which I put 5 ice cubes with lots of fruit and veg + bit of water.

It is the most horrible grating sound a bit like a gardener pruning hedges or something. It actually makes you cringe. Not like the usual very loud sound of nuts chopping which is fine, but this is a really grating sound.

Has anyone else experienced this? I think I should start recording it.

Thanks for this- makes sense!

Hi there

I've made the vegetarian nut paste quite a lot and love it

I just want to make plain almond butter

Iv'e only found this recipe which seems a little ..... odd.  has anyone tried it and has it worked? Are you meant to Keep the timer going and temp at 37 while you carry out the rest of the step?

What would happen if I just grind up the almonds for few mins?

Thanks

Anyone tried these without the chilli? Not sure my kids would like the chilli in them
