Are Soy-Milk Makers Worth Buying?

I'll answer the last question first. YES! By making your own soymilk you save money, control your intake (you control the ingredients), and you also cut down on the inherent costs to the planet in packaging and transportation costs. But the soymilk you make at home is not the same as the soymilk you purchase in the store. First, there is no binder in your homemade milks, so they do tend to separate out. All you have to do is stir the product up before using it, but this does tend to freak out some people. Secondly, with all the soymilk makers we've experienced, you have to strain the soy milk again, otherwise you'll wind up with a slightly gritty milk. Thirdly, homemade soy milk has a very different taste than the soymilk you buy in the store. If you do nothing to the milk (i.e. add vanilla and sweetener) it will have a "beany" taste. Finally, the milk you at home is not fortified, so if you're counting on getting a healthy dose of calcium or vitamin D from your milk, think again. Try some turnip greens or bok choy, or white beans instead.

So, in summary, Jane and I would recommend the Soyapower Plus soy milk maker, rice milk maker, nut milk maker. If you would like to see all of the popular models available, you can check out the current best selling, just click here.

Alternative milks cost much more that conventional cows milk. If you are committed to making the transition to non-dairy milk, or have already done so, you may want to consider investing in a soy milk maker. A good soy milk maker can save you a lot of money over the course of a year.

The buying public completely agrees with us. Those consumers who have purchased this soy-milk maker and have reviewed it on Amazon have given it a collective score of 4.85 out of a possible 5.00 ratings. That's nearly a perfect score! It's very rare to see any product get such a high score after it has been reviewed by many people. Here's a sampling of some of the comments that real consumers have written about this soy-milk maker:

Overall, I am very happy with it. It is so simple to use, almost foolproof!

The Soyapower Plus soy milk maker makes absolutely delicious soy milk.

This is the best Machine EVER. it is so easy to use. And cleaning it is so simple and fast. I have their other SoyaPower and this is even superior.

Finally, a product that does what it says!

I love my SoyaPower Plus Soymilk Maker.

Comparing the SoyQuick and SoyaJoy:

Because the SoyQuick, which was formerly marketed as the “SoyLife” brand, and the SoyaJoy are basically the same machine, the operation, results and product reviews comparing these two machines are identical. Both of these machines are excellent, well-made soymilk makers that consistently perform well and produce a wonderful product. I have recommended the SoyaJoy and been very happy with it in my own use. And since testing and personally using the SoyQuick and the updated SoyaJoy model (SJ-5) side by side, I am happy using and recommending either model. Both machines tested performed equally well and are identical in function.

Comparing the SoyaPower:

The SoyaPower is the next offering in the soymilk maker market, distributed by Sanlinx, the company which also distributes the SoyaJoy. The SoyaPower has exciting new features (see the SoyaPower Product Review) that, in my opinion, set it apart from either the SoyQuick or the SoyaJoy, even though both of those machines are excellent quality machines and perform well. As noted in my review, some of what I consider as disadvantages of the SoyQuick and SoyaJoy, have been addressed and rectified in the SoyaPower. I am thrilled with the new features of the SoyaPower, especially for families with young children, as the features create a safer environment when making soymilk at home. Since the performance of the SoyaPower equals the SoyQuick and SoyaJoy, the added features add another option and choice of soymilk makers. Since all three are U.L listed and perform extremely well, I can recommend all three machines as solid choices and good investments.

Comparing the features of the SoyaPower to the SoyQuick and the SoyaJoy, my personal preference is the SoyaPower.

Conclusions:

The SoyQuick, SoyaJoy and the SoyaPower machines are well worth the investment. The machines perform consistently and identically. I suggest finding the best price, either at your local store or online (the distributors often have sales and specials). Check for the best warranty and Customer Service. The SoyaPower has added features that enhance the soymilk making process which makes it an excellent buy and wise investment.
