I've purchased a soy milk machine, one that's similar to others which
takes soaked beans.

I'd like to make thick and creamy soy milk similar to that sold
commercially. Is this possible? How can I do this? Do I just soak
beans and put them in?

This machine, Yaoh, says its for Hemp and other seeds, but doesn't
mention soya.


Any help appreciated.


Thanks

The makers of this machine say that it doesn't accept soya beans, but
it looks like the usual milk maker, you soak the beans then put them
in with water.

I don't understand... it's a soy milk maker that doesn't take soy beans?

w

They say its made for hemp.

I've seen a machine that heats the beans..

Can I make thick, creamy soya milk similar to that bough in a shop, in
a soy making machine? Do I need the machine that heats up?


Thanks

Don't quote me on this, but I seem to remember reading somewhere that you do
need to heat the soya beans, to deactivate some enzyme or other. Do check
this out yourself though, since I might be misinformed.

New here, and just saw this post.
It isn't an enzyme, but an enzyme inhibitor that needs to be deactivated
with heat.
Enzymes are life!

Thanks, Lucy! I thought I'd probably got the details wrong.
