      Yes, it can make peanut milk too.

        You had me at peanut milk! Never heard but tell me more…

        • belongsinforums on 14/08/2021 - 13:44

          Half a cup of peanuts and half a cup of rice

      Better than bonsoy I'd say cos you will be making fresh 100% soy milk. :)

      Bought from this seller and even went to their store in Campsie, they sold a lot of Joyoung product in the store and great service too. Look for Ronald.
      The Soy maker was great, easy to use but a bit hard to clean after use

      • Synticulous on 14/08/2021 - 14:46

        Right now it's buy from them on eBay and get great customer service from Ronald regardless.

        I've gotten 3 joyoung products (this, a rice cooker and a teapot thing) off them, everything came in stupid fast and they called me for each purchase since I live in an apartment for ATL as auspost is slow but the couriers will leave it somewhere.

  • sol3x on 14/08/2021 - 12:31

    It was $250 on eBay a couple of weeks ago with the 15%/17%off coupon.

    Wow we bought one from a shop in China back in 2018 for $60aud

    It's a blade with a built in heating feature. Doubt it's worth $280 but covid prices / people buying overpriced stuff lol

    • dajackal on 14/08/2021 - 13:05

      Is there a filter

        CCP filter approved!

      • jimojr on 14/08/2021 - 13:27

        There is no filter in this one, the bottom half of the milk will be a little bit thicker if you don't mix it before pouring it out.

        • dajackal on 14/08/2021 - 13:30

          Hmm ok thanks no dice then.

      You got it in China though, of course the price will be vastly different…

      • lplau on 14/08/2021 - 14:34

        Haha, if you Taobao it and get them to ship it over via sea. It would cost around $100.

    I have one of these - not this exact one. Heads up that the soy milk it makes tastes nothing like commercial. If you've grown up on home made you will love it, if you've been encultured into overly processed soy milk like me, you won't like it. It's basically a blender that heats.

    • ATangk on 14/08/2021 - 13:38

    Bear in mind these soy milk machines usually can’t handle high concentration of beans:water ration (meaning a more dilute soy milk) — had a machine for a while but still found myself buying soy milk from the Asian grocer especially when making bean curd desserts!

    Worth learning to make your own — the ratio is usually around 300g beans : 1.8L water

    • Doy on 14/08/2021 - 12:57

      I tried to make some recently and it ended up SUPER thick and unpalatable. The Okra was nice to make gnocchi out of, though.

      Mind sharing a method or a link?

      • priceaintright on 15/08/2021 - 02:11
        +2

        Method I use is 300g beans (soaked overnight - can speed up process with using hot not boiling, like 50°C, to have usable beans within a few hours)

        I measure out 1.8L of water separately (don’t use the soaking water) and blend the beans and water together then strain the mixture by squeezing the liquid through a muslin cloth (this is the bit that takes the most effort) — I double fold it in case of any tear/ruptures.

        Then bring the strained liquid to almost a boil (gotta watch it, it froths up at around 95-98°C almost instantly!). What I generally do is let it froth up twice ie. high heat until it froths, then low heat until it settles, and repeat once more.

        The milk shouldn’t have a raw bean flavour, and should be as creamy as the Asian grocer ones!

      • ulun-lpg on 16/08/2021 - 20:10

        my ratio, i seem to enjoy it.
        1.5litre water
        130gr beans
        30-40gr of dates (more/less depending how sweet you want it)

        add pinch of salt if you want extra flavor

    Aldi makes my soy milk for $2 a litre from the fridge section. Well content with that. Don't need to clutter my kitchen with another useless gadget.

  • tsunamisurfer on 14/08/2021 - 13:12

    How do these work? Do you just add washed soy beans and water and come back later?

    Does it need anything else?

    • browser on 14/08/2021 - 13:42

      Just add soybeans and water, 15 minutes later you get soy milk. It's basically like a heated blender.

      All natural and tastes great.

      Only downside is clean up, and you may have to filter the soy milk to for better enjoyment.

    • kogi on 14/08/2021 - 13:42

      I normally soak soy beans overnight.

      But yes, just chuck it in and press the button

      • tsunamisurfer on 14/08/2021 - 14:18

        What do you add for tofu fa?

        • kogi on 14/08/2021 - 14:34

          You need to make tofu from the soy milk, I haven't being able to find where to buy powdered nigari / magnesium chloride.

          If you are in Sydney, easiest would be to drop by Hoa Hung Tofu. It's made fresh daily

          20ml white vinegar for 1kg dried soy beans，here is the video.

          • kogi on 14/08/2021 - 17:42

            @jimojr: No, using vinegar would get you hard tofu.

            You can't make "tofu fa" from hard tofu

        • Shijun on 14/08/2021 - 18:07

          I used to make tofu with a bit of lemon and the Joyoung soy milk. It worked but not really worth all the effort.
          The soy milk is worth it though. My Joyoung is a much older model from China but it works really well.

  • Mechz on 14/08/2021 - 13:46

    280 bucks buys a lot of milk. And then there's the beans and time cost on top of the initial purchase.

    • NETBEAR on 14/08/2021 - 14:22
      +4

      Well it's like compare buying a coffee machine vs buying coffee out right. The long term saving is there if you use it frequent. Also fresh soy milk taste is much different to processed soy milk, the fresh one is much better.

    • kogi on 14/08/2021 - 14:38

      Difference is the freshness and the lack of sweeteners/additives. Plus there are much cheaper models.

      Also you can just use a pot and a stick blender.

  • hishaken on 14/08/2021 - 14:14

    What voltage for this unit? Is it 220v or 230v?

    • lplau on 14/08/2021 - 14:42
      +3

      220v, 230v and even 240v are typically the same.
      Which is why some manufacturers state "220-240V".

      Typically only problem you have are using Japanese or American appliances which are ALOT lower than 220-240V.
      Japan 100V and US is 110-120V, Most of the time you can use Japan appliances within America.

      If you got a Multimeter and measured the voltage at your wall socket, I can guarantee you that it is not 240V, and likely around 230V, and the legally allowable of voltage variation at Australian wall sockets are: between 216 and 253 volts.

        "If you got a Multimeter and measured the voltage at your wall socket, "

        Just to be clear, dont do that if you dont know what you are doing.

      • BilboBoggles on 31/08/2021 - 11:48

        WE had an issue a little while ago where our mains voltage was sitting around 270v peaking at 276v at times. Discovered this because our solar inverter was tripping offline every day. Appears the power distribution on our street changed, and they adjusted our transformer… Still sits around 250-260v most days.

  • thewrongbeckie on 14/08/2021 - 15:02

    I've got a Joyoung soy maker 6 years ago and still loving mine. I make soy bean milk, green bean, red bean, corn milk, etc. The sky's the limit. I usually put mine before bed and wake up to very healthy treat for the whole family. Especially like the timer function so i can set and get fresh grinded drink tomorrow.

    I took the soy milk maker out this morning, the process reminded me why I put it away. :D

    Very easy to get started, add soybeans and water, then press a button and wait 15 minutes.

    It’s the post processing to filter and clean, it took 45 minutes all up for about 500ml of soy milk. Too much hassle. But fresh soy milk tastes so nice, just too much work involved.

    • spy on 17/08/2021 - 17:06
