Almond Milk

[fcarabat]

did you have to upgrade your breaker to a 20amp? or does it work ok on a 15amp? thanks!

@okpapereat It's all right, but its noise is very very strong!

An important note for all: You cannot purchase truly raw (unpasteurized) almonds from grocers and health food stores. You may only purchase unpasteurized almonds direct from the farmers. The store varieties which are deceivingly labeled as "raw" are pasteurized as per FDA law passed in 2007. Pasteurized almonds cannot germinate and are essentially useless for any health benefits!!!

will the Almond milk separate in the fridge?

[antbekki]

@SolarYogaUSA No, Almond milk does not separate in the fridge.  However, since it does settle, you will need to give it a little shake before drinking it. And it only lasts up to 4 days. Except in my house it only lasts a day, because it is so delicious!

i wonder will i like almond milk if i do not like almonds? is the taste of the milk somehow different?

[TheLoserKingdom]

@TourDeMagie123 add dates honey and vanilla

Can the Blendtec grind the whole almond into a liquid, to make whole almond milk, rather than whats just inside the nut?

[okpapereat]

i love blendtech blenders they can blend anything

[funnyguise]

I'd love it! Thanks again! And now I know why to soak em. But is that true for other seeds, nuts or grains?

I totally agree with you on the cow's milk issue and it's great to see more people talking about it.

Say, do you think a 'cheese cloth' would suffice for straining? I live in S.Korea and don't think I'd be able to find a nut-milk bag. A lot o' nut cases, though;)

>>Do you know of a way to make almond milk without using a blender. The speed of the blades in the blender do damage the proteins and other nutrients.

Are you sure that statement is based on fact?

Let's look at powdered nutrition products from reputable companies -- green powders, etc.

Do you think someone sits down and hand grinds all their products with two rocks, or something? Everything is powderized with a fast, efficient process, and tests don't say these products are denatured.
