perhaps i’m having a senior moment, but what is meant by ‘turn lid counterclockwise during blending’? what if i have a wildside jar only?
I love almond butter. Making my own makes so much sense.

I LOVED ALMOND BUTTER , I WANT TO WIN A BLENDTEC FROM JILLSGOODTHINGS
Hello, I Have a Blendtec Total Blender…It is amazing, but I am having trouble with the almond butter.
Recently I have been trying to make the almond butter. It is a pain to make. A pain suffered mostly by my blender. I follow the instructions to the letter, yet, when I start blending in order to make the almond butter, the instructions in the recipe manual fall short, and I have to scrape and blend and scrape and blend…etc. I do not mind the scraping, but every time I start the blending cycle in order to make the butter, the blender starts fine but then as I ramp up the revolutions it finishes the cycle with a few spams.
Long story short, the original container became damaged, the blade got loose and wobbly. I had to order a new container. Also, at the time of the incident with the blade, the rotating socket, where the bottom of the blade connects to the motor, began to emit some smoke. I ordered a new 4 side container (because I do not think the motor was damaged)…
So today my new container came. I put it to the Almond Butter challenge again. 3 cups of roasted almonds…etc…it performed well, but with the same spasm, scrapes, and blends…
As you may assume, I feel like I am going down the same road that might lead me to the previous situation…
If you have any tips, suggestions, comments, I would greatly appreciate them…
