I live in an island and almonds grow in the wild everywhere so it's real cheap to get 100% organic almonds!!!
You can stick the pulp in a dehyrdator to make almond flour for baking.
ALMOND MILK SHELF LIFE: Because it hasn't been commercially homogenized, or mixed with stabilizers, homemade nutmilk begins to slowly separate into 3 layers** in a few short hours less than a day, and will be fully separated (and fugly in appearance by day 3). A lot of people mistakenly throw out their nutmilk when it separates, think it's gone bad. JUST SHAKE IT UP ! From experience, homemade nut milks are best (if refrigerated) within 6-7 days, and give it a quick shake each time you want to pour a portion.
ALMOND PULP TIP: After I've accumulated several pints in the freezer, I'll thaw it in the microwave, buzz briefly in my food processor to break up any clumps, then load up my dehydrator by pressing the pulp flat on parchment to 1/4" thick (simply lay an unopened 1 gal ziplock freezer bag on top and press the pulp flat onto the parchment with the bottom of a sauce pan), and run it at 140F or so for 8-12 hrs or until totally dry ... then I'll buzz it up one last time in the food processor, and the vaccum seal it into a glass jar, where it will keep at room temp for many months. I use it in baking, and for making no-bake crackers, and if you want to turn it back into nut pulp in order to follow a recipe for same it's easy to add some almond milk back to rehydrate it (add 1/4 volume of milk to dried pulp). Anyway, it's high in protein and modest in fiber.
Ok, that's my good deed for the day. Thank you, John, for getting me to try Jackfruit.
------------------
** I refer to the 3 layers, from top to bottom, as Almond Cream, Almond Water, and Almond Lees.
I find that if you use just enough liquid in the beginning of processing whole foods,the pieces won't have the liquid capacity to float around in the blender,so the blending material will process quicker and finer since it is so close to the blade.Gravity will be more effective as well.
After you've gotten the desired consistency,then you can blend the rest of the liquid to make it a drink.
Ratio being 2 dry to 1 liquid in the beginning,depending on how juice filled the whole food is.
another reason to purchase from John is that he advocates on your behalf for warrantee issues. I bought a juicer off Amazon with a 10 yr warrantee but they didn't honor it. John is a good guy to support.
Noel Miller did you send in your warranty to manufacturer
OMG unbelievable so many people are dealing with "Almond pulps"😂 you know you can make almond into almond butter and add a splash of water in it, mix well, add one more splash of water and stir... Repeat. You do it and the almond butter will become weird in texture at the beginning and then get smoother and the color will turn lighter and when it's in a silky thin texture, you can add a lot of water in it at once. Then almond milk done. The mixing job can be done by a mixer. No pulps left that make you have to do a pancake or anything ..
I had to come back and tell you that I ran my almonds through the juicer like you did on yesterday to make almond milk. I love it. Thank you.
add those almonds to basil when you make pesto
I love your work! Thanks for keeping us informed.
Another great episode John! I'll have to keep my eye out for that coconut scraping knife. I didn't know it was so easy to open and process a coconut. Thanks for the lesson.
I have a vitamix and plan to get a slow start for my birthday ! I can't wait to make this.....
I'm so glad I found this video ,it definitely made me sub😋😋😋... I'm a vegan and Jamaican and I love both coconut and almond milk. I Grow up drinking coconut milk you definitely made me make my mind up on Purchasing my vitamix and my juicier, since I'm considering selling my smoothies and juices.
Great tips. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for another excellent video! I've received just a week ago Sedona Combo dehydrator. Thank you for a great product - LOVE IT!
Thank you so much for this wonderful information.
I just watched this whole video at 7am before going to sleep
Thank you so much. I've learned so much!
Hi John, Thanks so much. Love the thought of using my VSJ843 to finish my coconut or almond milk. Now I have to find another use for that nut milk bag ; )
Thanks so much, for the great info :) Keep up the good work!!!
Much appreciation! I have bought so many juicers and blenders over the years...I can't even count. I love the demonstrations so that I can compare the pros and cons. :)K
Genius... thanks from the UK John!
I have a Hurom slow juicer... should work... will try it!
Great videos! Can you make almond milk or coconut with the omega vert 350 or 350hd?
thanks for the videos!
Great video, thanks
John, thank you. I sincerely appreciate your videos. I've just purchased this model from you and am very excited to put it to work!
another great video thanks john you rock 👍
hi john, very helpful video as always:) I have the VSJ but no vitamix. will a hand blender (stick blender) also do?
Thanks so much John! Great Video. Will try this VERY soon. Need to purchase coconut tool soon. Janet Y
Janet Y use a dull knife. That's what we use before fancy tools back in the island
This is genius! I have been juicing nuts in just my Hurom for years.
Great!!! Thanks!
Hi John! The link has a comma not a period. Love the video. Good info as always.
I need to know all this i like this thank you
Thanks for the great video. How to make nut-milks if I do not have vitamix blender? Thanks
Love your vids!
Friggin' awesome vid .. Been drewling over a juicer for a while now .. But with the whole mlik debat and seeing this, I want to make my hot oatmeal with almond milk instead of regular milk .. Thanks so much
Excellent video, never thought about using my VSJ to make coconut or nut milk,. Goodbye nut bags.
Steve Zech Amen! 😂LOL
Does the Omega VSJ843 make nut butters? I watched your video on the Kurvings and liked that it makes nut butters. Thank you. I appreciate that you make these videos to educate us on the different juicers.
very useful video!
learned a lot!
I need these products for my Health Coaching biz.
Will this work great on a Kuving c7000 as well?
Made coconut milk a while ago with my Kuvings Whole slow juicer. Fantastic stuff. Funny how warm the pulp is when it comes out of the juicer :-)
I was surprised at that too, also how dry it was.
pdude1911 Did the coconut milk go up while juicing in the Kuvings?
John, great video as always! Question (and sorry if I missed it): it looks like the coconut water you get from the nuts isn't enough to make the milk? Do you have to buy more coconut water separately that is the processed type? If so and recommendations?
Thanks!
John, it is possible to do this on an omega horizontal juicer?
Great video John
Thanks , May The Lord Bless You Always !
I love this guy. I have learned so much about juicers and what they can do for my health. Thanks John.
Man these omega VSJ843's are freaking awesome! I need to buy myself a vitamix tho...I will buy it from your store in a week :)
Haven't heard from you yet. san antonioWhere did you get that about of coconut water to add to the vitaMix? Thanks janet from
John, thank you for this educational video. I want to buy my juicer through you but need to watch many of your videos first to make sure what I get will do what I mostly want it to do. You did a video with Fully Raw Kristina on the top 3 juicers that you recommend a few years ago. The Omega vert 330 Hd or 350 Hd was your pick. Surely an up to date Top 3 would be welcomed.
In this video you mentioned using the almond milk with a probiotic to make a cultured almond milk. Would using a kefir grains work as well and if so, would I want to use milk kefir grains or water kefir grains? (haven't figured out why there are 2 separate types in the first place...marketing ploy?)
This looks Great!!!
Can we make coconut cream, Coconut Butter & Coconut oil with the Omega VSJ843?
Awesome
An excellent, informative video, thank you John. I'm from Australia so I need to find out where I can buy those machines here.
Some varieties of almond trees will actually grow in the northeastern U.S. up to climate zone 5. Fresh coconuts are much more expensive and not always available on the east coast, so usually it's canned or dried coconut or nothing.
Do you have a video of making the nut milks in the slowstar? Would it work this same way or could you utilize the homogenizing attachment rather than a blender for the first step?
John is there a reason you used the dry container for the vitamix instead of the wet one?
Hi john good evening.. Finish watching you're video and was wonder if it is really necessary for me to get a juicer ..I have purchased a vita mix and hope to get it soon .. Please give me your best advice...really want to start being healthy my tummy is getting out of shape .my whole body at least....
Great video. How do you know which coconut is right? I see dark brown colors are they the same?
How well does the Tribest Slowstar make almond and coconut milks?
Great video!!! One question.....the coconut water that you added to the soaked almonds in the Vitamix....... Did you get that from young coconuts?
good vid enjoyed watching you
The high speed of the blender doesn't damage the vitamins and nutriments ? I thought that was the main point of a juice extractor, slow rotation, little heat dissipated, no damage done
i have a omega vrt 370 and a professional vita mix 3hp so this will be easy but I also got hurom HH-WBB07 which would be better to do the milk after i processed in vitamix
Hi John! Thank you for sharing, I can't wait to be able to make my own! So is this your juicer of choice to make nut milks? I've been trying to decide which one to get, so I've been watching so many of your comparison videos. I'd like to say thank you SO much for everything you do! I'm learning a lot about gardening AND juicing, and it's really exciting. Take care and God Bless!
PS...I hope y'all are close to getting your farm! =)
Yes, this is my fav juicer for making nut milks. Other juicers I have tested have not worked as well as I mention in the video.
Thank you, I just wanted to double check. I'm SO excited to get a new juicer and improve my families health! I started with a breville (Not knowing any better) and I'm ready for more yield, less oxidation, and to make the yummy coconut products that can break the bank in New England! =) Have a FABULOUS day and I hope you get to spend it in your garden, which by the way is AMAZING! =)

Hi John is this a juicer you would recommend for juicing leafy green veggies? i need a new juicer. the kuvings that i have tend to cause my juice to feel warm, & the machine itself gets hot when i'm juicing. appreciate it if you would send a reply.
thank you.
I have held off buying a juicer for a while. I was thinking about getting an Omega Juicer, is this juicer good for juicing other fruits and vegetables as well? Or is it best for nuts and not as good for other things.
Hi John,
I had few questions about making my own milk I was hoping you could help with.
1. In the video you say 'make sure the juicer is set up for juicing'. What did you mean by this? Is it not always set up for juicing?
2. We tried your method for making coconut milk today, but it didn't come out like yours. The coconut fat seemed to get stuck between the screen and the screen holder and didn't make it in to the milk which made the milk quite watery. Do you know what we did wrong?
3. What is the difference between the 2 screens that come with the VSJ843? One has small holes and the other has slightly bigger holes. When should I use which one?
4. Should the grey pulp plug at the bottom of the jug be closed all the time? I seem to recall in one of your videos you say to keep it open when using the juicer for something, but I can't remember what.
Thanks
John, I tried this in VSJ843R round model, but it left so much fibre in the milk I had to use a milk bag in the end. Should I have poured it back through? Wonder where I went wrong? 🤔
omega d best slow juicer everrr..
What kind of coconut water do you recommend? I recently purchased the Omega VSJ843Q from you thanks to your helpful videos and i'm ready to graduate from grocery store bought coconut milk to the real deal!!!
Hi John, Why can't I just feed soaked whole almonds with water into the Omega VSJ843 Juicer? Why do I need to blend them before and clean 2 machines?
Awesome Job!! :)
Greetings-
John, what kind of coconut water did you add to the coconut and almond milk mixtures?
How do the kuvings juicer yield nut milks
Just curious, have you tried making acorn, beech nut or some sort of other foraged nut/seed milk? Acorn milk might be more practical as beech nuts take a lot of work for little reward.
Question..... when I put my coconut milk in the fridge the fat layer on top solidifies, if I shake it up I just get big chunks solid fat. How do I prevent this?
Can I use my Breville BJE820XL to make Almond and Coconut milk?
John, will the VSJ also do just as well with cashew milk?
I am wondering if I can use my tribest slowstar juicer instead? I love the video.
Yes, it will work, but maybe not as well. I share some tips about this in the video.
What brand of coconut juice do you think is best?
what/where did you get the extra coconut water from? just purchased coconut water?
ty bro
Thanks 👍✳️👍✳️👍✳️
But won’t you have to lean the screen fro the juicer? Not really saving cleanining but it is easier than squeezing [a nut milk bag] I guess. You can do this same thing with ONE machine Omega 8006. Use the blank screen to process the SOAKED and strained almonds into meal. Add pure clean water to the soaked meal. Then switch to the juice screen and ladel the pulp mixture. Less cleaning, no squeezing, and only ONE machine required.
I like this guy such a nice guy
Is the coconut water available in super markets, or do you have to get it somewhere special (organic, unprocessed) like a health food store? Also, I have a brand new Slowstar juicer. Will that work for me, along with a blender?
yum!
where can we get Almonds from Spain...here in NY
Hey where do you get your almonds from Jon ?
Hi can this be done with the horom
John What coconut water are you using please?
Sir, what if there is no coconut water? What can be the alternative? Cannot find one in Saudi Arabia... Thank you and more power to your channel!
Will my Omega VRT350 do this reasonably well?
Never mind. Found your answer below. 😁
I make nut milk every day so I was very interested to check out this video. But the main argument to switch to vertical slow juicer to strain the nut milk mixture is cleaning time. In my experience it takes me more time to clean slow juicer than nut milk bag. Although I have only juiced vegetables and leafy greens, together with some fruit. Maybe it is easier to clean slow juicer after making nut milk than juicing veggies? Thank you John!
ilijadobre Did you experience any difference in the almond milk taste or texture in the slow juicer? Did it get more fullbodied?
I would buy from you--but I am not sure it would work. I live in Canada... are there warranty issues or shipping issues?
Can the omega juice cube do this?
how much extra to order the juicer already put together?
If you soak the almonds in coconut water overnight would you get MORE almond flavor out of the nuts? thanks a lot for all you do!!
John can I use my greenstar instead?
I always struggle opening (Thai) coconuts. I do not have a cleaver. Tapping with a hammer does not work so I use the hammer and a chef knife to pry it open. The knife has now been downgraded as the "coconut opener" as its edge is all wonky and pretty useless. LOL. Btw in my country one Thai coconut cost $4.50!!!
