You're Welcome, Momcat. I would try a batch with the soaked beans in your

present machine, if they'll fit, and see what difference the soaking makes and

which milk you like the best. ;)

 

Debbie, I've also tried that trick of pre-soaking and either refrigerating or

freezing the beans in a baggie or small container, and found it's handy and

generally works really well. You sometimes need to be sure that the beans aren't

either soaked too long or kept too long or the milk can too easily separate,

depending on how hot your machine cooks the milk in it's cycle. If you've never

had any problems, that's a pretty good sign. How long do you usually soak your

beans before freezing them?

 

I think the soymilk machines are great. In addition to saving you a lot of

money, they give you okara, which you can make burgers or bake with, or just use

in a pot of rice or compost with some of your favorite plants. The soymilk

machines stop the need to recycle all those cartons and let you have all the

milk and yogurt you want, or as little as you want, basically for the price of

bulk beans, which can be stored for a fairly long time without any special care.

I usually soak them overnight (8-ish hours) or a couple of days in the refrigerator.  I've never had any problems with separation.  I do confess, though, that I prefer almond milk to soy milk and so rarely make soy milk any more.
