I use my pressure cooker quite often for beans and it occurred to me that I could use it for quick-soaking soybeans for making milk (I've had too many batches were I've left the beans soaking for too long). Could something similar be applied to almonds? It's no big deal since they need only soak about 4 hours or so, but I'm just curious ( Read more... )

Hello. I use a Soyabella soymilk maker, and have tried different ways of sweetening the milk after it's done, like brown rice syrup and agave nectar. It's fine in coffee or cooking, but I don't love drinking it straight. So I was wondering, what would be a way to preparing the milk to get it closest to texture and taste to Silk?

The past two nights, we've been using our SoyToy for making tasty beverages and such. Yesterday, we used the solid leftovers (called "okara" in Japan) from making almond/walnut milk to make veggie burgers (along with onions, carrots, celery, oats and a dozen or so other random veggie ingredients). YUMM ( Read more... )

I just got a SoyQuick maker.  It makes great meelks but I was wondering what other poeple who make their own add to it if anything to make it tastier and less "beany".  Oat milks, rice and almond suggestions are also welcome!

Dear LazyWeb,

I want, I need(!), a machine to make soy milk. My household drinks, yes no kidding, about a gallon of soy milk a day. I've seen one of the smaller machines but it just wouldn't produce the quantities that we drink.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

We recently discovered a company selling the Soy Quick soymilk maker in the UK - at a discount. Plus 1/2 kilo of organic soybeans and a tofu press thrown in for free. Having had a bad experience with the SoyToy a few years ago, I was sure to read up; Bryanna Clark Grogan says she uses a SoyQuick, and that sealed the deal for me ( Read more... )

I'm interested in getting the SoyQuick and I found one entry about it from February ( Read more... )

Okay, I checked the memories/tags, and I only found one lonely entry on this that didn't share much info.

I've been contemplating switching over to either powdered soy milk, or buying a soy milk machine to reduce my costs. Now... I know that I can make my own soymilk/ricemilk/oatmilk/nutmilk/tofu without the fancy gadgetry... but it ( Read more... )
