    Anytime you have burnt on stuff or a pot that has burnt looking stuff at the bottom. You put baking soda in the bottom and undiluted hydrogen peroxide enough to make a thick paste. Then you heat it on the stove and the heating action makes it spanking clean

    I recently cracked great soy and cashew yoghurt. Chinese soy milk maker (like a cross between an electric kettle and a coffee grinder). 50g soaked soy beans, 15g soaked cashews, top to the right level with water (total 800ml including beans and nuts) use soy milk program. 27 minutes. Let cool, put in small glass jars and in the yoghurt maker with culture (4tsp total previous yoghurt, or 5 probiotic capsules) for 8-9 hours. Thick, lovely. No straining, no "milking", no beany taste. Easy clean up. Soy milk maker €65, yoghurt maker €25.

    I have been soaking my soya beans overnight or 24hr and then I massage them to remove as many of the bean skins as possible. I found this makes it taste less beany as does cooking the milk- soya milk after straining for 15 mins in the Instant pot.

I wish i knew why or how it affects it, or if it's just a superstition 😅It'd be nice if it's just an extra step we could skip. And no idea how everyone manages to make soy milk/tofu without destroying half the kitchen, i really don't get how we manage it. Thank you so much for the video, and i hope it encourages people to try ☺nothing better than freshly made IMO.

    So happy to see this video ! I hate paying through the nose for something as simple as yogurt ! In another tutorial, they strain the milk BEFORE cooking it, therefore it is not burning hot. Then, they cook it 20 minutes and put it in the IP for 8-12 hours. I tried once but I had very few soybeans so my ratio soy proteins-to-water was a bit off and my yogurt was like a block !!! It is still pretty good though but I will use it as a starter for my 2nd generation. I bought the starter Cultures for health from Amazon. Before, I made chickpea yogurt, which does not even need a starter. Unfortunately, chickpea yogurt has a real beany taste. So looking forward to my next batch of yogurt. Speaking of tofu, I will definitely try it in the near future but I am not against trying red lentil tofu or another bean.
    So YES for recipes woth okaara and other types of tofu ! Thanks for all you do !

Also, for those without an instant pot, we simple pour our soy milk into 1/2 gallon jars and place it in our crockpot (unplugged). Then we wrap the jars in towels and let in sit at room temperature for 8 hours.

    I've made yogurt a number of times using store bought soy milk. I find it is less runny if you don't put the lid on the instant pot all the way. Leave it cracked a tiny bit which I think helps the moisture escape some and the yogurt is thicker in my opinion. The instant pot does allow you to do that on the yogurt setting since it doesn't come to pressure on that setting.
