Two important things to look for in a soy milk maker:
Automatic Operation: A Temperature Sensor Precisely Controls the Cooking Temperature
You want to invest in a soy milk maker that automatically heats the soy milk. Heating soy milk without boiling over or scorching is the most important and difficult part of making soy milk. Make sure the machine you buy heats at the correct temperature automatically. Some juicers can make soy milk with special attachments, but they don't heat it, thus leaving the most difficult and time consuming work to you, since soy milk must be properly cooked before consumption. The SoyaJoy has one temperature sensor and one boil-over sensor. The machine automatically starts grinding the soybeans when the water is heated to 177°F. Independent research confirms that "hot grinding" the soybeans virtually eliminates the "beany" flavor.
Flexible Control: Separate Controls Allow Customized Adjustments for Grinding and Heating
The SoyaJoy has two separate controls that allow you to adjust the length of the grinding and heating cycles to suit your taste. These separate controls allow for differences in water and soybean quality. The manual settings of the SoyaJoy, in addition to its automatic program, allow you to heat or grind the soy milk/soybeans for more or fewer cycles when desired. Most likely, the one-button automatic program will serve you well, but it is nice to know that the extra features are there if you need them.
SoyaJoy is a premium quality machine. It has been rated the best in every apple-to-apple comparison test conducted by experts. Below are reviews that have been published by several well-known and well-respected professionals.
IntSoy has selected the SoyaJoy Soy Milk Maker as the best out of all soymilk machines tested.
Dr. Karl E. Weingartner, Senior Food Scientist &
Director of IntSoy, an independent non-profit research organization widely recognized for its authority and expertise in soybean utilization research.
We are most pleased to announce that IntSoy (International Soybean Program) at the University of Illinois has conducted vigorous testing of the SoyaJoy Soymilk Maker.
Here are the original words of Dr. Weingartner at IntSoy:
IntSoy recently tested three different brands of soy milk makers. Based on the results of these tests the machine we recommend is the SoyaJoy Soymilk Maker from Sanlinx Inc. The machine was tested using both hot water and cold water for making soy milk from soaked soybean according to the supplied user manual. It takes us about 15 minutes to make soy milk from cold tap water, and 12 minutes with hot water. We noted that the taste of the milk is better when the hot water is used. The instructions are easy to follow. The machine is very suitable for home use and is among the best we have tested. The stainless-steel container is also a plus.
IntSoy is an independent non-profit research organization widely recognized for its authority and expertise in soybean utilization research. It has facilities to test and evaluate home use soymilk makers, as well as large-scale commercial soy products equipment.
Well-known chef and cookbook author Ellen of Ellenskitchen.com highly recommended the SoyaJoy as the best soy milk maker.
This is the second time Ellen recommended the SoyaJoy. "This machine is still the best value for the money and recommended by me and Intsoy." Ellen has over 20 years of experience as a professional chef, nutritionist and author.
SoyaJoy also got rave reviews from Marie Oser.
Marie Oser is a best selling author, syndicated columnist, and lecturer specializing in health and nutrition, with an emphasis on the plant-based diet. Her popular weekly column, "The Enlightened Kitchen," has been gaining readership steadily since its debut in the Philadelphia Inquirer on October 10, 1999. Marie also has a regular column in Vegetarian Times, the most popular vegetarian magazine.
"Commercial soymilk can vary pretty dramatically in flavor, texture, and price. The refrigerated varieties are very popular, however they are the most expensive of all. For many of us, especially parents of growing children, the expense of keeping lots of soymilk on hand can be considerable. The new automatic soymilk makers have become really popular among health and budget conscious consumers. Why? Because making fresh soymilk at home for 42 cents a gallon is pretty hard to beat. And it¹s delicious and FUN! The SoyaJoy Soymilk Maker has become a favorite among many homemade soymilk aficionados. Its sleek design and seamless stainless steel construction
are considered superior to other brands. In my experience with the SoyaJoy machine , I have found the quality and consistency of the soymilk and the ease of maintenance to be deciding factors."
SoyaJoy also has a great editorial review from the most popular vegetarian website, vegsource.com.
"SoyaJoy gets VegSource's highest rating! Jeff and Sabrina have been having a ball with their SoyaJoy Soymilk Maker, coming up with a variety of different flavors and consistencies. You can't go wrong with a SoyaJoy—we love it! Don't be fooled by imitations and Johnny-come-lately ripoffs— SoyaJoy is the original, the granddaddy that started it all! The quality of construction, the safety and the power of the machine are the best out there. It's made of the finest materials available—a surgical stainless steel cooking pot with smooth edges all around—and it's built for safety and ease of use. It's not only the best, it also happens to be the most reasonably priced! Compared to SoyaJoy, other soymilk makers look like toys! ... "
Jeff recently tested the SoyaPower and here is what he has to say:
You've taken a great soymilk maker and made it even better! It's so easy to use and clean up, and the soymilk it produces is a big hit with the whole family. Thanks for continuing to be a leader in spreading soy to the world!
Feel free to use that as an endorsement on your site, should you wish to.
All best,
Jeff
Soy Milk Recipe
To make plain soy milk with this Automatic Soy Milk Maker, you do not need any more than the instructions in the User's Manual—add water and soaked soybeans and press the START button! To make soy milk with your favorite flavor, just add the flavoring of your choice after the soy milk is made. You can add a bit of sugar. Do not feel guilty about adding sugar because most likely you have added less than what is in commercial soy milk. You can also use sugar alternatives. Some people like to add a little salt. Vanilla flavor is also a favorite and is known to neutralize the "beany" taste pretty well. Some customers have reported that blending cold soy milk with banana is great.
How to Make Creamier (Thicker) Soy Milk
Use 100 grams of soybeans instead of 70 grams. Note that machines shipped after March 2002 include a 100-gram measure cup. You can check your User's Manual to confirm this. Adding between one and two tablespoons (1/16 to 1/8 cup) of rice or oats (oatmeal, oat bran, quick oats) to soaked soybeans will make thicker soy milk. There are detailed recipes packaged with your SoyaJoy Soy Milk Maker. Rice needs to be soaked for the same amount of time as soybeans, but oatmeal or quick oats can be added without soaking.
Keep in mind that commercial, ready-to-use soy milk contains significant amounts of additives (such as starch and sugar) for consistency and taste—read the labels. One reason for making soy milk at home is to know and control the ingredients. Without those additives, your homemade, fresh soy milk may taste slightly different from commercial soy milk that's manufactured to have an extended shelf life.
Rice Milk
The SoyaJoy is as good as any soy milk machine at making rice milk. But the truth is that rice milk is more difficult to make than soy milk. The reason is partly due to the huge variety of rice types available. Also, rice milk is very sticky, which necessitates more cleaning. Monitor the machine closely the first few times you make rice milk. Below are a couple of rice milk recipes for you to try so you can determine which one works best for you.
Rice Milk Recipe #1
1. Rinse 80 grams (use Measuring Cup) of brown rice. Soak in warm water for about 4 to 6 hours. Rinse again after soaking.
2. Add water to machine between the water marks.
3. Add the soaked rice to machine (same procedure as with soybeans, see User's Manual for details).
4. Press the START button. When the machine beeps, the rice milk is ready. Serve hot or cold. Add your flavorings before use.
This milk is very plain and can be flavored with oil, vanilla, salt, etc.
Rice Milk Recipe #2
1. Measure 3/8 cup (regular measuring cup) of dry white rice. Place the dry rice into the Filter Cup.
2. Add water to the SoyaJoy container to between the water level marks. Connect power and press the START button.
3. When the machine beeps, the rice milk is ready. Serve hot, or cold. Add your flavorings before use.
Almond Milk
1. Rinse 70 grams (use Measuring Cup) of almonds. Soak in warm water for about 6 hours. Rinse again after soaking.
2. Follow same steps for making Rice Milk.
Milk Recipes for Other Nuts and Seeds
Once you understand the principles of making soy milk and rice milk, you can easily make milk from many other nuts and seeds.
The first principle is to soak the seeds or nuts in water (cold, warm, or hot) long enough so that the seeds/nuts become soft, but not so long that they sprout or spoil. They will take longer to soak in cold water than in warm or hot water; however, hot water is probably best avoided. Once seeds or nuts are well soaked and swollen with water, they can be ground and made into milk with the SoyaJoy Milk Maker.
The second principle is to use the correct amount of seeds or nuts for each operation. The rule of thumb is that soaked seeds or nuts should not exceed 2/3 of the filter cup volume. If you add too many seeds at once, the machine may not grind them fine enough to extract as much milk as possible, or the milk will be so thick that it will scorch the heating element.
Use common sense when you try something new for the first time with the Soy Milk Maker. Be prepared to stop the machine by unplugging the Power Cord after pressing the START button if you hear unusual noises or see something unusual happening.
People have made milk from the following seeds and nuts:
Brazil Nut Milk, Cashew Nut Milk, Coconut Milk, Hazel Nut/Filbert Milk, Macadamia Milk, Millet Milk, Peanut Milk, Pecan Milk, Pine Nut Milk, Pumpkin Seed/Pepita Milk, Quinoa Milk, Rice Milk, Sesame Seed Milk, Soybean Milk, Sunflower Seed Milk, Walnut Milk, etc.
