  • How to make homemade oat milk.
    Oat milk is legit! And it's super easy and inexpensive to make. If you haven’t yet tried it, you need to. Whether it’s in your coffee, your cereal, or in your baking, you owe it to yourself to see what all of the fuss is about.
    With most things in life, making your own is a lot less expensive. Nowhere is this more true than in the world of oat milk. Buying it in the store, or online, can you could pay anywhere from three to four bucks, all the way up to eight or nine bucks for a litre of the ever elusive Oatly.

    By far, the most popular comment on this video, asks why I "throw out" the soaking water. Many people are concerned about the loss of fiber, nutrients, or just the wastefulness of the water in relation to the fact that I have titled this a "zero waste coffee talk". In short, the soaking water doesn't contain any beneficial nutrients, nor does it contain any fiber. The water that is discarded contains surface starches that when blended, can make the milk slimy. Can you make it without soaking? Yes. Will it possibly turn out more slimy, or less "milky"? Possibly. What else can you do with the water? Use it in smoothies, water your plants, use it to make oatmeal... The remaining water is not dangerous to consume, nor does it contain any magical elements that were leached out of the oats during the soaking process. In my experience, the soaking and rinsing of the oats prior to making milk, yields a better textured milk in the end. This is what works for me, and that's what I did in this video. If you decided to make your own oat milk, then take this simple idea of blending oats and water and make it your own. Additionally, you don't have to strain the oat milk after it is blended, but you will end up with a gritty milk if you don't. The oat fiber that remains after straining can be dried and use as oat flour, added to smoothies, or just composted. If you scroll through the comments, you'll see a lot of great suggestions. In the end, it's your oat milk! Have fun with it!
    Thanks for watching!

      Monson Made This try using the soaking water to water your plants
      If within 3 weeks you notice the plants flourishing. Then silicon calcium and b vitamins
      And other minerals Are indeed in the soaking water
      Best to use Distilled water when creating these milks
      I work for a holistic MD she has patients with skin disorders. Rashes, eczema psoriasis cradle chap etc etc use bath the area in oat milk 2 or 3 times daily
      Works like a charm

    Pulp tips:
    1. as your binder in veggie burgers

    Something about this video is so refreshing! I usually watch so many CZcams blogger ladies out there and so often the content is recycled over and over and there's so many fancy effects focussing on making the video pretty and aesthetic and making the ladies in them look beautiful and something to aspire to that it over rules the actual content. I really enjoyed this! You're so cute and seem very real and at the same time have great content and ideas, I thought I was going to just quickly skim through and watch the 5 minutes of oat milk making but I stayed for the whole thing and I'm glad I did because WOW that iced coffee looks good. I also agree with someone else below who said it's great to see more male representation in the zero waste movement.

      I really appreciate you taking the time to comment, Laura. It means a lot to hear that I'm doing something different in the wide world of vegan CZcams. There is a ton of female representation, representing the plant-based panacea, but obviously that's not my journey nor is it my story. I started this channel to give back to the community that helped me to transition to veganism almost 3 years ago. It's so cool that people are responding positively, and getting something out of what I'm putting on my channel. Thank you for watching, and again, thank you for your kind words.

    I had no idea oat milk was so easily made at home! I'm always looking for it in shops but it's so rare or expensive. Oat milk is great as it's one of the least environmentally damaging milks, milks using almonds and rice are very inefficient, but the oats like you said here can be reused at home for instant fibre too! My friend is huge coffee buff like yourself so I'm sharing this video on to him. Your kitchen is beautiful too, love the zero waste and vegan vibes.

    But when a foodie such as yourself recommends, I really should get cracking! Could be massive saving, too.

The oat milk could take a couple of tries to get it perfect in your kitchen. Over-blending it could make it slimy, so you need to get the time right for your equipment. I have used nut milks in the past, but I really prefer the flour sack towel for most plant milk recipes. Let me know how it goes!

    Okay. You never cease to amaze and enlighten me. I havent made coffee at home in ages. This morning I used my French Press. I am intrigued at the stove top contraption you have. Which do you prefer between the two of these? I think I tried oat milk before but made wrong...maybe didnt soak...cause was gloopy and I tossed it. I have to make it tonight though. If even for my youngest cause he goes through 4 cartons non dairy milk a week alone. You're phenomenal and I always look forward to your content.

    • @MonsonMadeThis

      Thank you for the love! Each contraption has a different result. The Moka style that unscrews in the middle is for making espresso, so if you wanted to make a latte or some type of espresso-based drink. I love the French press if I want to make a larger "pot" of coffee. Some days I just don't feel like refilling K-Cup after K-Cup. I go in phases where I favor one style above the other; kind of just depends on how much effort I want to put forth that morning.
      In terms of the oat milk, it is a bit gloopy by it's nature. It's definitely more viscous than a soy or almond milk, which is why I like it for coffee. Try blending it for only 30 seconds, and see if that helps with the texture. Over blending it can make it slimier for sure.

      Most people throw it out because it gets rid of some of the raw starchy taste. If that flavor bothers you in things like overnight oats, you’ll want to throw it out.

    Why can't you use the water you soaked the oats in? Do they lose anything nutritionally speaking from soaking?

    • @MonsonMadeThis
      @MonsonMadeThis  Před 5 lety +15

      Theoretically, that water contains a lot of the starch from the oats, which when blended could contribute to the final product being more viscous. Removing some of that extra starch at the beginning helps to prevent that a bit. I can't imagine it affecting the nutritional value much. I have made this using unsoaked oats and it came out fine, which would theoretically be the same as not draining or rinsing.

      You can use the starch water, if you want to make oat cream (more oats, less water, 1TS oil) and then freeze it like ice cubes. This is a great binder for sauces

    It gets slimy when you blend it for too long. You also can't cook with it since it will "gelatinize"

    • @MonsonMadeThis
      @MonsonMadeThis  Před 5 lety +8

      Absolutely. I have been telling people with "slime" issues to stop blending at about 30 to 45 seconds. And I have strongly discouraged the few who have inquired into cooking with it. Baking with it is a different story, though. I have found it works very well in baked goods.

      Thank you! And thanks for watching. I'm by no means perfect when it comes to "zero waste", but I do love finding ways to be more conscientious. Making your own milks is such an easy way to cut out excess packaging and waste. Let me know what you think of the milk once you've made it. Err on the side of blending too little. If you have a high speed blender, maybe only go 30 to 45 seconds. Over-blending can cause a somewhat unpleasant texture if you plan on using your oat milk in things like cereal. It may take you a time or two go get things calibrated right for your kitchen.
