I can no longer recommend Magical Butter Machine

[SHRED]

I bought mine in 2015. Used it less than 10 times. It developed the dreaded handle crack that is well documented as an issue online. Bad plastic. Faulty manufacturing.
I have been told I'm out of warranty. Nothing they can do but offer me another at a discounted rate of $99.

This should be a recall with say a 5 year window in my opinion considering they know it's their fault.

I've also learned that the MBM2e is a glorified soy and ricemilk maker. Look there for a less expensive unit that does basically the same thing.

1. I was thinking of buying one

Thanks for the heads up. I make edibles, butter, olive and coconut oil. It is bitch on the stove top, Crock-Pot to extract and remove all the solids so you can make fine candies and pastries. I was thinking of getting, perhaps winning one on Facebook, now I'll settle for winning only.

2. Search around for "soymilk maker"

Basically the same thing.

They grind/blend and heat.

3. Great stuff

I met up with a person that makes this and was given a jar of it to try. I've been waking up at night with severe pain in my feet and legs and I rub it on them hoping I'll get back to sleep. It helps a lot! I'm going to go find this person and get some more soon hopefully.

I hope you find an easier way to make this! Great stuff!!

4. I just ordered one, direct from the manufacturer's website

Does the dreaded handle crack affect the machine's operation?

5. It can if it completely breaks

Keep an eye on the top part of the handle.
If it is within a year they'll replace it.

You just mix equal parts then apply to the area. I generally clean the area with alcohol and a cotton ball and then scuff it up with a little sand paper before applying the putty. It creates a super strong bond and you can sand it to smooth out after it dries. I'm guessing there are similar product rhat might a ligher color.
I'm not exagerating that the stuff has probabky saved be a grand or two. The repair is usually stronger then the original part.

The marine grade version works great in wet environments.
