Does this product get thick as it stands with liquid? If anyone tried RAW meal, it gets thicker the longer it stands, which I hate.

It does but not as quickly as RAW. RAW I had to gulp down very fast or it would get gross. This I can drink over the course of 20-30 mins and not be grossed out. I blend mine with ice and almond milk.

Hello! I don't know if it gets thicker, I generally mix it with vegetables, almond milk and drink it instantly. I've never let any smoothie set because it separates

Some kind of very fine mesh material - it seems stronger than cotton, maybe nylon? I have used it 3 times now, loaded it up with almond pulp, and squeezed the heck out of it; it seems extremely strong. Very happy with it. I just read an unsatisfactory review and will say this: my second batch of almonds soaked for 3 or 4 days - I was leery of the results, but it turned out fantastic almond milk, very thick and very creamy. I had no bits that made it through the mesh, maybe because I used a Cuisinart (don't own a blender) and perhaps it does not grind as finely as a blender.

I've done thick sliced bacon on this and there's no grease splatter (although I don't like the way it cooks bacon). when you grill or cook meats on the stove there is grease splatter because all that grease and fat is right on the heat. with this product all the grease falls to the bottom. as long as you have water in the tray there's no smoke and the grease is floating in the water. I really don't see a reason for a cover because grilling time is short and, hopefully, your not grilling thick meat. in my experience with this product anything over 1/4in is to thick, unless its fish (but the salmon I tried was a little under done at a 1/2in thick).

It is still liquid although thick. I bake with it all the time and I can pour it into a measuring cup. This is only for the Buckwheat not the other honey they sell which is more along the consistency of shortening.

As long as it isn't "chunky" we haven't had a problem with any foods. You might try heating it under some hot water as I've noticed it makes the food a little thinner.

Yes, I froze it all the time, in small servings. It does mess with the consistency a bit; I was blending it in smoothies and it wasn't a problem.

I find the texture soft when compared to the venison which is very hard...I add organic chicken broth to this and my girls love it. It is important to add liquid as the texture/flavor is enhanced.

If you go against the directions, who want you to use a proper held-held blender, I find it thickens fine by itself. I once used just a small whisk and hot water and it was quite thick. I don't think it needs any added ingredients, but you can always experiment.

Hello Sylvia, I had another product that worked pretty good. Sort of the same design but it had a gage that indicated when it was finished. This one did not work as well and I saw no improvement on my produce staying fresh. I would not purchase it again.

Please look on bottom of bottle of bottle for experation date on mine is 1/18. My GSE is thick and stickey. I don't take it because it makes me sick, too strong. It can be used for other things directions on lable inside flap. I will try it again when my system gets stronger. It would be a good idea to conntact the maker and find out what is going on and post answer for others that may be having the same questions. Emmy

Just like coconut oil, it will be solid at normal room temperature. As it states on the package, you can add warm water to dissolve it. I just break off chunks of it and then add it to a recipe if it is being heated. Make sure to keep it refrigerated after you open the package, which makes it even harder. I agree, I was a bit disappointed that it wasn't liquid as I expected it to be more like coconut water.

Maybe try doing 1/2 a scoop twice per day instead of 1 full scoop to dilute the taste and texture more. I personally put mine into my raw protein shake every morning with fresh fruit blend it in my blender and you can barely taste it. I hope this helps you out a bit... It's awesome stuff don't give up just try some different ways to make it work. I have noticed a huge difference since taking this product I highly recommend it!!!

Try cutting back liquid. Mine has turned out different when I use broth or stock instead of water.

Trying to figure this out myself. I shook it every time I used it and still have thick sediment. What I'm doing now is adding a little water, stirring it with a skewer and storing it upside down. I still love the stuff but it is a hassle. I've read other product reviews and the complaint was it was watered down? So???

Added to hot water or other liquid it dissolves quickly, but if you microwave it it is horrible. I think when you nuke it it changed the molecular structure. But that aside.... The stuff is horrible tasting !!! It ruins the flavor of every thing you put it in. Worse than dry powdered milk! Awful!!

I tried almond milk and Culturelle for the starter culture. It did finally thicken after 20 hours but there was a lot of liquid that I had to drain off. Taste was ok but texture ws very thin.

I have grated carrots and raw vegetables with it. You just can't be in a rush. I didn't like the way it grated the cheese either. I would not necessarily purchase it again if it broke....
