Install the homogenizing screen or blank in the Omega NC800 HDS juicer instead of the juicing screens.

Place a collecting bowl on the end of the juicer.

Use dry almonds, ensuring there are no shells.

Process the almonds through the juicer, noting that it will take a few passes to achieve almond butter consistency.

After the first pass, the almonds will come out as a meal, not yet spreadable.

Continue processing the meal through the juicer for a second pass, observing the texture change to small chunks.

For the third pass, continue to process until the mixture starts to become stickier and oil begins to separate.

After the fourth pass, the texture should be improving, but still not spreadable.

On the fifth pass, the mixture should be warming up and becoming more cohesive.

After the sixth pass, let the almond butter sit at room temperature for a day to allow the oil to work itself out, which will improve spreadability.
