Ok, I think I'm going to buy a soymilk maker! I can get Joyoung ones quite cheap on ebay. Does anyone have any experience with this brand? I might go into China Town too and see if they have any in the shops.



You should! Then report back!

I had a Soyabella, but couldn't stand the taste of the soymilk from it -- I think the machine heated up the soymilk too much for my liking. I wound up giving the machine away to a young vegan family who, thankfully, love it.

I was soymillk maker-less for a while because I couldn't decide on what kind to buy. Finally, I just took a leap one day and bought a Soyapower Plus machine.

I was really happy to learn the machine is designed so that filter cups are now a thing of the past!! This machine is filterless and super easy to clean--much easier to clean than my original machine and easier than the Soyabella. You filter out the okara at the end, through a nice fine-mesh stainless steel strainer that fits perfectly on the supplied pitcher. The soymilk tastes pretty decent after sweetening and vanillaising and the okara is a very nice texture. MrQ loves the milk, but it's still 'beany' to me (but all soymilk is beany to me).

This machine will also make rice milk and nut milk, but MrQ prefers soymilk, so that's what I'm making.

This machine is way, way quieter than my previous machines. The carafe and motor unit top are more insulated than my other machines, so it barely startles the cats when it starts doing its thing. The end-of-cycle beep is also very very quiet, which I appreciate (though others might like a loud alarm-type beep).
