Soyapower Soy Milk Maker Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I'd like to say this product is amazing! I calculated the prices of soy milk in the store, about $4 per half gallon. I usually drink 2 a week. That gets super expensive! I also didn't appreciate all the additional chemicals and garbage produced with the containers (since soy milk containers AREN'T recyclable). I estimate that a cup of organic soybeans is about $0.10 and then I use my ZeroWater filtered water to soak and to make the soy milk, about $0.10 so I am saving about $3.80 per every half gallon. I also use this wonderful machine to make the milk for my soy yogurt. So that's another 2 half gallons I make just for that per week. I'm saving almost $10 just on the milk. (not to mention the cost of soy yogurt at about $2 per small container, and I eat 2 per day!) This machine has saved me a TON of money!
As for the use of the machine. Some have complained about the basket that the soy beans go in. I have tried both methods of loading the basket: pouring them through the small hole on the top of the machine with the empty basket attached (which in my mind is harder because the beans go all over) and just filling the basket and shaking the beans to be able to put the blades in and lock the basket in place. I prefer filling the basket. It may take a little time to fit the blades in around the beans, but I think it's actually faster than collecting the beans from all over that have spilled with the other way.
Others have also said it's noisy. Well, most grinders are noisy because they are pulverizing the beans, and it's only for a few moments. But I can still have the thing going in the kitchen and watching TV or listening to music quietly in the next room. It's NOT that loud.
One thing I will say for sweeter milk, make sure you get as many of the casings off the beans. Just mix up the beans in the water after soaking or even while soaking, and pick out the casings. Also rinse the beans until the water is clean. I always use my filtered water, not from the tap, I think it makes it better and without any added chemicals from the water it makes it healthier.
I am so thankful for this machine! I bought a secondhand machine because I wanted to first try it out, and I'm so glad I did.
I haven't tried to do anything with the Okra that is made from grinding the beans. I am trying to find recipes that I can make and I'm wondering if this stuff can be frozen so I can use it later, since I make so much, I don't think I can make things with it all the time. But if you don't want to use it, just dump it down the garbage disposal, it nearly melts when water is added.
