Does it do a good job on blackberries....especially the seeds? Intend to use it for smoothies that have blackberries.

It does a wonderful job, but it does not get all the blackberry seeds, or at least I haven't done it long enough to find out!!! I love this item. So glad I purchased it. Use it mostly for smoothies and it is wonderful with ice!

I have not tried it with blackberries, but it does a great job on frozen mangos

Cannot taste or feel the seeds on strawberries or even apples. Even raw, dry oatmeal disappears. No worries.

The instruction and recipe booklet with it says it does...I've never tried it...I just use it for smoothies.

I have only used it minimally for that....find it does okay with blueberries and softer fruit like that but would not use it for tougher fruits. Its blades are better suited to liquids and soft things like peanut butter.

I have only used it to make applesauce. It does a wonderful job of keeping the seeds, cores and peel from going through..I hope that helps.

The recommend way to use apiste is to grind and save the water you use to rinse the ground seeds. The water becomes a milk like liquid that you drink. To my knowledge you do not eat the seeds. I've not used it in smoothies however several friends have enjoyed that option.

Yes. It even emulsifies little things like flax seeds. It does that with the regular blenders very well. I didn't even try it with the flat blades they intend to be used for that yet.

Yes, it does a good job. I bought the grinder primarily for spices. I grind cumin and cardamon seeds regularly and always get the desired result.

Haven't tried it in the blender but do make smoothies with pumpkin seeds, chia, hemp seeds, nuts and frozen cranberries and frozen blueberries. I do have a Cuisinart food processors that I make butters in.

The seeds blend very well and if want you can strain but very little left in strainer. I would say seeds are great for smoothies, therefore eliminating cost and possibility of extra impurities in processing of powder.

Very good. Whether you use hard ice or frozen fruit it chops it up pretty well. My smoothies come out great. That's the main purpose I bought this blender and yes I would buy it all over again :) but it is very loud when you blend. If that doesnt bother you then it's perfect!

Yes. I use mine for both 6 oz. of blackberries and raspberries. In fact, I own two and have used one for small clumps of grapes.

I use the strainer as is for tomatoes, apples, grapes, blueberries, etc. It even gets the seeds out of blackberries. I like it a lot but it does need to be full to work. Just screening a handful of blueberries won't work right inside the shoot. It pulls the skin and seeds out of the tomatoes. I did clean them and blanch them really quickly before putting them in. I ran the peels twice.

I used 2 oz per gallon to kill blackberries (Himalaya) and salmonberries. It did an adequate job but I was late getting it sprayed. It should even better next spring to finish the job.

yes this works well for most fruits. For harder veggies i steam longer but it still mashes very well. I recommend it.

Manual, It seems a lot of skin and seeds come thru, with some pulp, but the pulp seperated is good. I bought it primarily for blackberries, their seeds are tiny, and my wife dislikes all the seeds in preserves. Does a good job.

I just flew through 2 lbs of strawberries. Although when I first got it I thought, hmmm, waste of money, not very substantial, blades kind of flimsy, and then kind of babied it, even removing caps (the green leaves at the top) as I did my first strawberries. This time I got aggressive with it, removed no caps, plunged it into the strawberry, twist of the wrist, done.

I ended up returning mine. It worked well on smoothies for a week or two then it wouldn't crush up the ice in the smoothies. I hope this helps.
