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.

Tips and Tricks / Any brushes recommended for cleaning TM?
« on: December 04, 2012, 06:19:32 am »
I'm looking for a brush that can get into the blade angles and also scrub the base without pulling the blade out If possible. I make porridge every morning and the milk kind of sticks to the bottom a bit no matter what I do. Am sick to having to pull the whole thing apart to clean it.
Any product reccomendations?
Thanks

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

Babies and Kids / Brown Rice cereal for baby
« on: July 29, 2012, 01:17:34 pm »
I'm just about to start introducing solids to bubs and am wondering if anyone has made their own brown rice cereal?

A prev post I found suggested milling rice and then cooking, and another blog suggested the opposite- cooking in washed rice oven first and then milling. I would like to jsut use TM if possible but need it to be digestable for bubs

Any thoughts and anyone done this? It doesn't matter the size of the grain does it as it's milled?
