It sounds like the grinder is not making it fine enough - you want it to be almost like a dust. Also - Did you roast them first? If you roast them lightly (in the oven for 10-15 minutes, until golden brown) they will release their oils better when you grind them. You could add some walnut oil, linseed meal, almond butter etc to make it bind better... But, if all else fails, you could always order some from them! |

I thought that when I grinded them it would jsut come out into a butter ..|

Ok so roast , then grind into like a powder I can do that , it's jsut I didn't understand what to do next I thought that when I grinded them it would jsut come out into a butter ..
|

| So after there all powdery I need to add some oil .. but how would I figure out the nutrition , I tired it with only 1/3 a cup so I could know how many TBSP that made .. |
| ugh hmm maybe I'll take your advice and just order some from them! |
