literally stopped half a minute before this video finished so i could make it, and it was easily the best oat milk i've ever had! i will never buy oat milk from the store again!
I finally decided to make my own oat milk since it's so pricey at stores. I followed this recipe but used a cheesecloth, and straining went much faster (only a minute or two). My hand got cold squeezing it though. Store bought oat milk tastes better to me personally, but I'm going to experiment with different flavors/additives.
Thank you, I love your simple comprehensive explanation. From now on I have only Oat milk. Quickly made, super fresh and costs less than a quarter than the ones from the shop. I still added 2 or 3 tbs Coconut Cream. You won't taste the Coconut, but it gives it a milky flavor.
Love your energy! and great explanation, good pointers on mixing time and filtering it. Will never buy oatmeal milk again after realizing how easy it is to make it at home and how delicious it comes out. Better then regular milk too by the way.
I think straining would be easier and faster if you strain the oat milk through the fine mesh strainer first, and then strain it through the cloth. I've seen other recipes where people recommended washing the oats before making the milk (put the oats on a strainer after soaking them for 10 minutes, wash until the water run clear, then make it as usual). Have you tried it?
BTW I used a coffee filter and it worked great! But first I strain it through a fine mesh strainer to get rid of most of the "chunks". If I use the coffee filter first it gets jammed very fast.
I watched a video on how they make oat milk commercially and they added boat load of oil and cooked the milk at a very high temp where it no longer feels healthy. This homemade recipe is a really good alternative.
Very nice, thanks. Am just finishing making almond milk, not excellent yet, first time. But I believe oat milk will taste much better. Although almonds can give you more energy. As for the clothes, pardon, I use wipes, I just washed them 😅😅😅😅 Lovely video. Thanks again....
You could add whole milk to your morning oats and have the best of both worlds. Porridge is one of the foods that kept humans thriving for at least a thousand years or so.
I made oat milk, even added ice to the cold water. I made haldi doodh “golden milk” so I had to heat it and it got mushy and thick. Is it not reheat-able without additives? 😩🙏
When you pour the liquids from your measuring cup try to do it slower. I had discovered that when the flow is "bigger" than the notch, it spills everywhere. Its not broken, you just some patience 🤭
Thanks for this recipe and the tips. I'm a Brand new subscriber. Other straining options, singularly or in combination... French Press Mesh Coffee filter Cold brew coffee filter Paper coffee filter Drip coffee filter
Thanks for the recipe and tips! Quick question, at what speed for 30 seconds? I have a Vitamix as well but wasn’t sure how high the blender needed to be.
Yup, it can take quite awhile to strain. But the more you strain the less potential for the “homemade oat milk slimy texture” that can happen sometimes. So take your time.
My oat milk turned out beautiful. I used sugar and honey only for taste. But quick question, it still tastes very oaty like grain taste and smell. Any way to combat that?
I think that's why he added maple syrup, vanilla, and pinch of salt, as these optional ingredients help to cancel out that oat grain taste and smell. Adding a date is also a good alternative to maple syrup, for a more subtle sweetness.
I like to add a date to mine, for a more subtle sweetness. You can omit the sweetening ingredient, though in my opinion it does seem to improve the flavour.
The way you first strained it showed to a T what I have always thought about men. They do everything the hardest way possible. I will be trying out making oat milk. 4 sure.
Use less water, try 3 cups instead of 4 for each cup of oats, and reduce the amount of maple syrup and vanilla by about a third, or add a small date instead of the maple syrup, it's a bit less sweet. Adding a few cashew nuts or a rounded teaspoon of cashew nut butter will also make it creamier.
He said one cup oats to four cups water. The measurements don't have to be exact. In the UK, cup measurements are slightly different to US cups, but it doesn't matter in this recipe. For a creamier milk you can use less water.

You should strain it with the fine mesh strainer first to get rid of the bigger bits that clog the cloth then do a second strain through the cloth.
Thank you for making this video! I made my very own organic oat milk today & put it in my coffee!! Feels like quite the accomplishment 😁
It didn't rain on your oats?? If yes, they are not organic! 😂
thanks for you video... you just saved me lots of money...

Thank you Justin! I like oat milk way better than almond!Will be making my own with your recipe!
This looks like a good option, besides almond milk. I’m lactose intolerant, so I’ll definitely try this recipe. 👍🏼👍🏼
Yes totally agree. Oat milk can be thicker than almond milk which is nice for coffees and smoothies. Hope you love this recipe!
Love health healthier choice is the best.
Looks great!! I'll give it a try using the fine mesh strainer, fingers crossed!
Update: the strainer works!! Great texture and taste, thanks Justin!
Great great video I will be making my own oat milk very soon

I make oatmilk an it was slimy thank you so much for this information I'm going to use cold water next time 👍
I have the same pyrex jug and trick is to pour slowly and your liquid wont spill. it took me a while to figure it out.
Yes that's how we do it in the island of jamaica cloth and strainer
I LOVE OAT MELK
I am going to try this.
Great! Let me know how it comes out for you!
This good for me I have alot of oat boxes in. The house

I always need more patience 😂
This looks so good, I'm going to try it tomorrow 🤗. Can you please tell me how many days it will keep fresh in the refrigerator? 🤔 thank you 👋
A week maximum. Hope it come out great for you!
Wow you just saved me tons of money
Wohoo!
I LOVE MELK
I have a Blendtec blender and wonder what setting it should be on and for how long. 🤔 It looks so good!
Hmmm I haven’t used a Blendtec, what are the options?
Wow. I would do this
Wonderful! It’s a really fun process.
Thanks
You are very welcome!
Soak the oats at least 15 minutes before blitzing. That reduces phytates.
Also, double the oats for more creaminess.
The milk will be slimy if you soak the oats
Thanks for this recipe and the tips. I'm a Brand new subscriber.
Other straining options, singularly or in combination...
French Press
Mesh Coffee filter
Cold brew coffee filter
Paper coffee filter
Drip coffee filter
Looove the French press idea!!!
Healthy milk
Thanks for the recipe and tips! Quick question, at what speed for 30 seconds? I have a Vitamix as well but wasn’t sure how high the blender needed to be.
I would say medium high speed. Sorry I can’t be more specific but every blender is different. How this helps!
Great recipe..loved it 👌👍
I love hearing that! Thank you for letting me know 😀
@@cookingwithcoit your always welcome Chef✨
What are your thoughts on soaking the oats first for 30 minutes? Can we use ice cubes to blend so the oats don’t get slimy? What is the salt for?
Why not a cheese cloth? You also could double strain first using the fine mesh strainer then the clothe
You could use cheese cloth to strain your oat milk too. Recipe looks good 👍🏻😋🥰‼️
Great call! I need to pickup some cheese
cloth!
Thanks for video! Any nutritional content per cup? You know, the basics we find on a label?
Im straining it at the moment with fine mesh and thin t-shirt, its taking a long time and seems very light coloured and watery.?
Yup, it can take quite awhile to strain. But the more you strain the less potential for the “homemade oat milk slimy texture” that can happen sometimes. So take your time.
Hi can I pour this milk in my Nespresso frothier to make Cappuccino!
Does your oatmilk mix well with coffee? I've tried store bought almond milk but it seems to separate.
Oatmilk in coffee is life changing. Its soo creamy.
@@umpus now i gotta try it!! Thanks for the response 😊
It separates when poured into hot drinks. I just mix it with a spoon and continue drinking.

Tastes delicious with cereal and every other way but not nice with my coffee. I don't know why?! 😔
Can you use agave or another sweetener other than maple? I have a weird child that doesn’t like it at all.
You could try honey! Does your child like that?
I’ll try that. TY. Can’t wait to give it a try.
I used molasses and it's honestly very delicious too!
I like to add a date to mine, for a more subtle sweetness. You can omit the sweetening ingredient, though in my opinion it does seem to improve the flavour.
What can i use the residue /pulp for. Oats are expensive where i live so dont want to throw it away
I’m using it to make pet treats.
Why is mine coming out watery, following this recipe to a T? Is it my blender?
if you used an aeropress it would be so smooth
I made my first batch of oat milk but it would not froth for my coffee!
The way you first strained it showed to a T what I have always thought about men.
They do everything the hardest way possible. I will be trying out making oat milk. 4 sure.
i put oats in my smoothie, so its become flavoured oat milk
When I tried it, the milk ended up too watery. Any advice? I used the same recipe
Use less water, try 3 cups instead of 4 for each cup of oats, and reduce the amount of maple syrup and vanilla by about a third, or add a small date instead of the maple syrup, it's a bit less sweet. Adding a few cashew nuts or a rounded teaspoon of cashew nut butter will also make it creamier.
Dude! Get yourself a "nut milk bag"! Easiest to use, and has the finest strain......just saying
Those hugs always spill, I have owned 3 and they all spill. It may be the make?
Birdy
1 cup oat = 120 grams
4 cups water = 480 grams
Is it right?
He said one cup oats to four cups water. The measurements don't have to be exact. In the UK, cup measurements are slightly different to US cups, but it doesn't matter in this recipe. For a creamier milk you can use less water.
Simp with the pouring
Won't it get slimy with hot drinks?
you are pouring too fast! keep the stream fitting in the pouring lip, and it wont do that
Not best video - use a nut bag and add quarter of cashew nuts
This recipe is fake
Ill stick with my healtier alternative, 2% milk thanks. Oat milk, almond milk, soy milk, etc. When did you ever see milk from oats or almonds? 😂😂🙈
Dairy allergic folks can't stick with 2% milk
