alright! this is john kohler with discountjuicers.com! today we have another exciting episode foryou. and what i’m going to do today for you guysis actually show you guys how to make both almond milk, we got some raw almonds in here,as well as fresh coconut milk using some standard kitchen appliances. the reason why i wanted to make this videofor you guys is because i want to let you guys know that, you know, cow milk and otheranimals milks are not necessary, we don’t need to drink them.
but we’ve all been raised on that. i mean, one of the sayings i have heard isthat, you know, cow milk is basically baby calf growth formula. so everything in that milk is designed toturn a little baby cow, have you ever seen a baby cow, they’re so cute, into a thousandpound heifer. and i, i don’t want you guys turning intoheifers, right. so we don’t need this cow milk. but what we do need are we need the nutrientsthat are coming from plant foods such as the nuts and the coconuts, which do contain somehealthy fats in there for us.
now the thing i want to get into right nowis just how to make this stuff fresh. because you might be able to go to the storeand buy like, you know, canned or bottled almond milk or coconut milk. but the problem with that is when people startprocessing your food and not even people, it’s big corporations, let’s just cutto the chase here, they start putting in stabilizers and all kinds of things that you may not wantadded to your food. because they need to have it shelf stable. so they don’t lose their money. these things may not be so good for you, someof the things in there like carrageenan and
you know, potentially artificial colors andflavors and, you know, excess sweeteners and all kinds of processed ingredients. so i want you guys to be able to make yourown fresh broth using whole food ingredients in your home. and that’s what i’m going to simply showyou guys today using the, the vitamix turboblend vs blender. this is the blender that i like. it normally comes with a 64 ounce carafe. i’m using it today with the 32 ounce carafe,which i like a lot.
and then we’re going to use the omega vsj843juicer. no nut milk bag is necessary when doing thetechnique that i’ll share with you guys, you know. and here’s the standard nut milk bag. i mean, the standard way to make nut milksis the first half is basically blending up the nuts and the water and then strainingit through a nut milk bag. it’s kind of like you’re milking the cowbut you’re milking a nut milk bag. get your hands all like wet and stuff. and then you got to like clean this nut milkbag.
i don’t know if you guys look at that butthere’s a lot of fine little holes in there. and even, even cleaning it up really good,i still got some particulates from last time. and i really hate cleaning nut milk bags. if there’s one thing that i’d never wantto do again it’s clean a nut milk bag. and that’s why i was glad the omega vsj843juicer is the best juicer i’ve found to extract nut milks. and, you know, other vertical juicers, i’vedone it in the past in other vertical juicers, but the vsj843 works the best because i findthat on many other vertical juicers, you know, the pulp will kind of just get stuck insidethe machine and actually won’t flow out,
now you’re probably wondering, john cani do this with my juicer? well it depends on the kind of juicer yougot, right. if you got a centrifugal ejection juicer likethe breville juice fountain, the ones that spin at high speed, don’t even waste yourtime trying to use one of those to make nut milk. you’d be better off using a nut milk bag. now if you got something like a masticatingjuicer like the champion juicer, once again, save your money, save your time, get a nutmilk bag, it’s going to do a bit way better. but if you have a slow juicer, whether that’sa vertical single auger juicer like i have
today or whether that’s a horizontal singleauger juicer or whether that’s a dual gear juicer, all those machines will to some extentpress out the nut milk out of the nut mixture that we’ll be creating. and to varying levels of success. so i do have videos that i’ve done in thepast comparing and showing how to make nut milk in a twin gear juicer, how to make nutmilk in a horizontal juicer. i don’t waste my time with those juicersbecause i have the one that will do it the best and that’s what i want. i want the least amount of hassles and i wantto create the easiest nut milk with the easiest
amounts to clean, you know. when i’m done, it takes me 30 seconds toclean out the vitamix. it takes me about i don’t know under 3 minutesto clean out the vsj843, and i’m done. no more sitting around and scrubbing nut milkbags. so first i want to say if you enjoy this videoand enjoy my work, i would encourage you guys to support me by making your purchase of yourvitamix turboblend vs, which is the blender i recommend for making nut milks and if youwant to lead a healthier lifestyle including way more fruits and vegetables in your diet. and also that’s where we sell the omegavsj843 juicer, which is the juicer i use on
a daily basis to not only juice my fruitsand vegetables but also occasionally make nut milk. so it will also make things like nut buttersand frozen fruit sorbets. so you’re going to want to check my othervideos on that. but yeah, you want to make your purchase atdiscountjuicers.com. this allows me to continue to make these educationalvideos for you guys to share with you guys all the different features of the juicersthat not even the manufacturer is showing you. and why do i do this?
i do this because i am passionate about thesekitchen appliances that allow you to maximize the amount of fruits and vegetables and otherplant foods in your diet. it’s the plant foods that are given to uson this earth are the most nutritious foods in the entire planet with the least amountof calories, the most amount of vitamins, minerals and phytochemicals that are the mosthealing and regenerative for us. so that’s what i want you guys to eat. and yeah, if you guys make your purchase atdiscount juicers, this allows me to continue to make videos, you know, sharing with youguys how to grow your food, why you should eat fruits and vegetables as well as demonstratethe machines like i’m doing today.
so thank you guys in advance, for those ofyou guys that will purchase your juicer from me or blender. and thank you guys that have made your purchasein the past from discount juicers. it’s much appreciated. so let’s get into this demonstration makinga nut milk. so as you guys can see we got a little jarhere of almonds today. these almonds are imported from spain. these are organic almonds from spain. you know, if you go to buy raw almonds atyour local health food store, and they’re
from california, they’ve been pasteurized. yes, even if they are organic. they could be, you know, chemically pasteurizedor steam pasteurized. now i definitely don’t recommend the chemicalpasteurization. the steam pasteurization is not so bad. but i prefer not to have pasteurized almonds. the only reason why they do that is becausethey are the almond, you know, farmers and commission are afraid of e coli contaminationbecause of the way in which they process and grow the almonds.
so if you don’t want to get pasteurizedalmonds, i do encourage you guys to get almonds that are imported. these ones are actually organic almonds fromtrader joe’s that are imported from spain. i’m not sure if they’re still sellingthese. i’ve had these for a little bit. or also the other way to get around this isto buy almonds direct from the farmers in california. farmers are allowed to sell the almonds directif they’re a small business to you guys without pasteurization.
if they go through normal grocery store channelsand all this kind of stuff then they must be pasteurized according to law. so yeah, so we don’t want to use these almondsjust out of the jar. you don’t want to just put the almonds inthere and add your water and then blend it up, right. bad idea. you got things like phytates and enzyme inhibitorsthat may cause digestive upset for some people, it causes me in some instances to like actuallybreak out on my skin because of some of the proteins or some of the things in there.
so what you want to do is you want to takethem and you want to soak them. so what i have done here is i’ve taken onecup of almonds, you know, just flattened out one cup, right here. and i’ve soaked them overnight. and i don’t know if you guys could see thatbut look at this water in there. that water is like murkily cloudy and nasty. like if you don’t soak your almonds, you’regoing to be eating this in your almond milk. so you’re going to go ahead and soak thisovernight 8 to 12 hours. i use one cup of almonds and then we’regoing to use between two and four cups of
water. that’s the normal recommendation. if you use two cups, it’s going to be astronger almond milk, maybe like a 2% milk. and if you use like 4 cups of water you’rediluting the fat a little more, then it’s going to be more like a skimmed milk for you. i like to go right in the middle, maybe about3 cups. so yes, since i’ve soaked my almonds, thenext step i need to do, i’ll do off camera. i’m going to go ahead and actually drainthis off and rinse the almonds. then i’ll come back with just the almondsthat have been drained and rinsed because
we want to throw out the soaked water, orbetter yet water your plants with it. i’m back. so now we’ve got the almonds basically drainedand then i rinsed them off through a strainer, and then i put them back in here. so i started off with one cup leveled of almondsfilled with water over the top, soaked it overnight, and then when they’re done itwill probably expand into maybe one and a quarter, one and a half cup because the almondskind of, kind of start to germinate and start to basically expand when they fill with liquid. so the next thing we’re going to do is we’regoing to generally you would add water to
this mixture between two and four cups, likei mentioned earlier. and instead of using water, i like to actuallyuse something that’s going to add flavor and further nutrition to my almond milk. and what that is today, that’s simply coconutwater. so i have some coconut water here. and we’re going to go ahead and fill thisvitamix carafe up probably about 3 cups. so let’s see, let’s go ahead, 3 cups. right, three cups right there. alright, great.
of course you could use regular filtered waterbut i like to use the coconut water. and then we’re going to go ahead and addour almonds. so once again, you know, normally you wouldput two cups of, of water to one cup almonds. or you could use three or four, dependinghow light or thick you want your milk. we’re going to then put the top on. and then we’re just going to go ahead andblast this up on high. ran that for a little bit. now we turn it off. we blended all the almonds up.
this is a very important step, you know. i know there’s some videos online and somepeople say once you soak your almonds you could take your water and your liquid andyour almonds and pour that through the juicer at the same exact time to make your almondmilk. now i don’t recommend this. and here’s the reason why. because when you pour the water and the almondsinto the juicer, basically the juicer has to crush up the almonds inside the machineand extract all the rich delicious goodness, whether that’s the essential fats, the vitamins,the minerals, the phytonutrients.
and in my opinion they kind of just don’treally mix well and then the, the milk comes out and then you got the almond meal comeout. and when you do it, you know, using the wholealmonds or the whole you know nut, your milk tastes more skimmed milkish. and i really like that milk that fatty richmilky consistency, right. so that’s why when you do it like this,you blend and homogenize all the different nutrients and flavors and, and phytochemicalsand lignins and all these things, in side there. and then you pour it through the machine.
so now the machine could easily separate outthe liquid milk from the fiber. and so you’re going to get a much betterand more complete extraction. so this is very important. and today i’m using almonds, but you coulduse literally any kind of nut or seed actually. so once we take this off, oops, once we takethis off you could see we just have a blended mixture of almonds and water. of course you can drink this but it’s prettydoggone pulpy. and it actually raised up the level there. so next thing, easy thing instead of pouringthis through a nut milk bag and strain it
out. all we got to do is turn this machine on. the omega vsj843 runs at 43 revolutions perminute. we’re going to take it and then just pourthis right in the machine. you want to make sure the machine is set upproperly for juicing. and as you pour this liquid through that containsthe fiber, what’s going to come out here is a nice clear milk with no fiber. and after a little while, you’re going tostart to see on this side some of the pulp coming out.
now one of the best juicers for doing thisis actually a press. so i show, this is a wells press. that will get the pulp like sawdust bone dry,right. but once again, with the press you got a presscloth which is pretty much like a nut milk bag that you will have to clean out. that’s why i like using this machine becausei’ll show you guys in a second the pulp coming out is actually super dry and thismilk is light, nice white and clear without all the particulate. so this machine is doing an excellent jobof, you know, getting all the delicious milk
out without the fiber. you might be thinking, john you’re wastinga lot of stuff, man, there’s nutrients still left in the pulp. well alright, there’s, so there is somefiber and stuff still left in the pulp and maybe some other nutrients. you could use this in baking, you know, youcould use it instead of flour in some recipes. you could use it to make cookies or otherthings. i’ll probably just mix it in with my dogfor and he’ll end up eating it. give him some extra fiber in there.
so yeah, as you guys could see, we pouredall this mixture through, all that all through. and now look at this. we added 3 cups of coconut water plus theone cup of soaked almonds. and on this measuring cup we’re well past3 cups, three and a quarter cups at this point. and the machine’s still working. let’s see let’s go ahead and scoop thisinto the funnel there and this little bit. so once you’ve poured the last bit of thealmond water mixture or almond coconut water mixture in this case, into the juicer, youwant to let the juicer run for little bit more before you turn it off.
because sometimes it takes a bit to, to workproperly. and when the pulp stops coming out of thechute here, then you’re ready to basically stop the machine. so looks like no major amounts of the almondmilk are still coming out of the spout. so let’s go ahead and turn this machineoff. let’s go ahead and plug that spout. and i want to show you guys just for a second,i mean, this is the almond meal. look at that in there. can you guys see that?
i’m going to go ahead and pull some outwith my hand. we’re going to go ahead and take this inmy hand and i’m going to go ahead and squeeze. and look between my hand, look. and my, can you see me squeezing out any liquid? i mean, i’m squeezing quite hard. all i see is like the pulp patty. you know, i’d venture to say that this iseven more efficient than some people when they press out their nut milks in the nutmilk bag. also it’s significantly easier to clean.
and it’s done a really excellent job extractingthe nut milk, you know, compared to any other device that i have ever seen out there. so if you make large quantities of nut milks,you know, this is the machine you simply got to buy. so finally we’re going to go ahead and pourout this nut milk. let’s go ahead and pour out this nut milk. let me show you guys this consistency. look at that. like very little if any fiber in there.
the vsj has done an amazing job at strainingit all out. wow! over 3 cups. now i’m going to go ahead and try it. mmm! that’s a good, wow! i really love those almonds from spain. they really have that like almond essentialoil. like some people add like, you know, whateveralmond essence to their nut milk to make them
taste like almonds because they’re likecalifornia almonds like suck. this one actually has that really good flavorbuilt in, like that almond extract flavor. it’s quite delicious. there is some fine particulate in there. and so i would encourage you guys if you don’twant that in there to strain the milk further to get that out if that’s not your desiredeffect. now once you have this, which is your basemilk, you know, i would store this in the fridge for no more than 3 to 4 days max. and once you have this base milk, now youcould do anything you want with it.
you could add this to smoothies if this isnot sweet enough for you, which is actually quite delicious for me. you could blend it with some fruit, whichi recommend, you know, to make it sweeter. you could actually blend it with somethinglike some dates or some raisins to add some sweetness. you could put some, add some vanilla beanin there to make it the vanilla flavor. you could add carob powder or carob powderand some vanilla to kind of give it a chocolatey flavor. you could add your own probiotics in thereto culture this into a, you know, a cultured
almond milk. i mean, so many different things. but it’s only available if you guys makeit fresh at home. so this is the almond milk. let me go ahead and put that right there foryou guys. next what we’re going to do is we’re goingto go ahead and re-setup and we’re going to go ahead and show you guys how to makesome coconut milk. so now i’m ready to make the coconut milk. and it’s super simple.
now actually i prefer the coconut milk actuallyeven over the almond milk. number one, coconuts are going to be cheaperto make the coconut milk. one coconut like this costs me about a buck. and the almonds that i used to make that muchalmond milk which was about 4 ounces, and i don’t know if you guys priced organicalmonds lately but it’s sometimes it’s like $15 a pound. so i don’t know, what’s that like, $4or something. and it’s going to cost you a lot more tomake almond milk unless you dilute it down. that’s why i just simply like coconut milk.
in addition, the coconut has the medium chainfatty acids which i like a lot. and also the almond milk, one of the negativethings is, is that they may imbalance your omega 6 to 3 ratio or 3 to 6 ratio, howeveryou want to look at that. and we want to really maximize the amountof omega sixes we have. so the thing i would recommend you if youare going to make almond milk, you know, add a couple tablespoons of flaxseeds in whenyou soak your almonds, so that gets blended up in there. and that will help offset the, all the highomega sixes from the almonds alone. so to do this what we’re going to do iswe’re going to go ahead and open up this
coconut. now i’ve had many people watch my videosin the past and say john, can i use like, you know, coconut flakes to do this, to makethe coconut milk? and i, i do not recommend that. you know, coconut flakes, unless you makethem yourself are a processed food product, i’m highly confident even though they don’tlist it in the label that they do do some kind of bleaching to it, because i break out. i think they’re adding sulphides or somethingin there to keep it nice and bright white. i break out, you know, when i have the coconutflakes.
so i really don’t like to buy them. and you just don’t get the same textureor consistency that you do and it’s not going to work as well. because, you know, you’re losing a lot ofthe water content. i mean, freshest is always best. so anyways, i got a little fillet knife herewith the nice little fine point. now just go through one of the holes on thecoconut. there’s always two eyes and a mouth on thecoconut. looks like a monkey face.
the eyes have a little brow. so i like to use this little knife. i could get in there and, and poke out theone hole. then we’re just going to go ahead and, youknow, drain that into our blender carafe. looks like we’re about drained. and it looks like we’ve got about 8 ouncesof the coconut water total. so what i’m going to do is we’re goingahead and add additional coconut water. and once again, we’re going to go aheadand take me up on this one actually i’d like to do up to about little bit over 3 cups.
and then we’re going to go ahead and nextstep is actually crack this coconut open. so cracking a coconut, it’s not that hard. if you’re not skilled with the knife, youcould put it in, you know, triple plastic bag and then smash it against the concreteground outside. i like to use a standard meat cleaver. and i’m not using the front blade, i’musing the back of the blade, the blunt end. and i just basically tap this coconut aroundthe equator. tap it and turn it. and the shock wave will go on the coconut.
and as you guys could see it was easy to cutit in half. now i want to inspect the coconut, smell it,you know, looks alright, smells alright. sometimes a bad coconut, if you got a badone, it’s very important to pick good ones, is to you know make sure when you shake it,it’s full of water. if it’s not shaking and you don’t hearwater inside there, that means it’s probably a bad coconut. also go to a store that sells lots of coconuts. so like mexican markets i usually find sellsa lot of coconuts. or asian markets, you know.
generally supermarkets don’t sell coconuts. and a lot of the produce guys don’t knowwhat to look for when there’s a bad coconut. and they just see the coconut, oh it’s alright,because they can’t tell it went bad on the inside. and yeah, so, and return it if you don’tget a good one. anyways, now we got a special tool to carveoff the meat. we’re going to go ahead, let me just putthis tool in between the, the shell and the meat. and we’re just going to go ahead and simplypop it out.
so there we go. we got the meat off now. if you do get some of the, the shell on here,it’s called the testa, it’s like brown, you don’t need to sit there with a knifeand cut it off. it’s alright, it’s like the skin outsidethe almonds, right. you don’t have to like take off the skinsof all the almonds actually. there’s extra nutrients in here in my opinion. so we’re just going to go ahead and crackthe coconut meat up into different pieces. and put it into our blender carafe.
now i just got to get the meat out the otherhalf. got that last bit of meat out the coconut. i mean, it’s easier to soak almonds, butman, i really prefer the flavor of the coconut milk over the almond milk. so once again, you know, what we really wantto do is once we add the coconut water and the coconut meat, we really want to be upat about the 32 ounce mark or a little bit above that. that’s kind of like my standard referencerange. then once again we’re going to go aheadand put this lid on the vitamix.
and we’re going to crank it on high. so once you’ve blended it up pretty well,it’s all, you know, homogenized and blended up in there, no big large coconut chunks,once again you’re going to go ahead and take this mixture off. and, you know, you could totally drink thismixture. and this is why the people say john, you shoulduse a blender not a juicer because you’re going to keep all the fiber. well i don’t know about you but drinkingthis mixture with the thick fibrous chunks in there is not too fun for me.
i want to, you know, extract all the fiber,feed that to my compost bin, all my beneficial bacteria in my compost bin, and i want todrink the delicious coconut milk. now much like the same thing with the vegetablesspecially when juicing, right, people like to blend up their vegetables. and i would, you know, say it’s definitelybetter to blend vegetables than to not eat it at all. but in my opinion it’s better to juice thembecause there’s documented research studies that show you get higher levels of phytonutrientswhen you juice the vegetables, in this case, broccoli, at a lower rpm than running somethingat a very high rpm.
specially the most valuable phytonutrientsand phytochemicals can be damaged at high rpm when oxygen is constantly being introducedinto the mixture. at a low rpm such as 43 rpm, there is muchless oxygen infiltration which is causing less oxidative damage to the nutrition that’sbeing created in the juice. and so in tests that they’ve done with broccolijuice made in a slow juicer so much of this, and broccoli that was processed through ablender at high speed, they put it in petri dishes with six different kinds of activecancer cells. and the one with the juicer had the leastamount of cancer replication. so the cancer did not grow as fast.
so it had more inhibition effects than theblended because in my opinion, based on the research study that’s been published, it’sdue to the oxidative damage. so that’s why i like the juicing. and also it’s very important, speciallywith the vegetables, you know, we want to break open those hard fibrous cell walls toextract the nutrients out. and that’s why you guys are doing the sameexact thing with the almonds or the coconut. because you want to extract the nutrients,specially that one called fat. now fat is just one of the many differentmacro nutrients. but i want you guys to focus your diets onthe micro nutrients, the vitamins and the
minerals, the phytochemicals, all these kindof things are much more important than just the fats, the proteins and the carbs. alright. so let’s go ahead and pour this coconutmixture through the juicer. once again, i did not clean it after doingthe almond milk because we’re just doing another milk. and the mixture we just pour it down the chutethere. this mixture is a lot thicker than the almondmilk mixture was. but as you guys could see, we’re instantlygetting that creamy, light milk out.
and as you guys could see we got a, a littlebit of the extra almond pulp coming out but now we got the clear white coconut pulp comingout. and let me tell you man, you guys just gotto get one of these juicers to make this recipe, coconut milk, one of my favorite things ever. i’ve turned my nose up to all those bottledcoconut packaged junk. and don’t, when you make this kind of coconutmilk it’s not like that condensed coconut milk in a can, right. this is like a totally different thing. it’s like much more creamy, frothy, rich.
and once again, you know, this is the recipei like to use, about, you know, four cups total. but feel free to add more liquid or less liquidbased on what you’re doing. if you want to make a coconut cream, right,use just the coconut water that came in the coconut without adding extra coconut water. and this will allow you to make a really thickcream. but make sure once again you’ve blendedfirst. now the problem that you’re going to havewith many slow vertical juicers aside from the vsj is when you pour this mixture in likei did today, it’s basically going to back
up in the chute and it’s actually not goingto eject the pulp and it’s not going to eject the, the milk out for you guys. now the reason why it’s doing that is becausethe juicer’s designed to juice not extract coconut milk. so i found that this machine extracts thecoconut milk the best. so in that case what you want to do if it’sgetting backed up, then you want to add something. maybe add a piece of carrot to juice at thesame time you’re making the milk. so then you’re going to have carrot juiceinfused milk, you know. i’ve also just done this technique in thevsj with something like cactus fruit or you
know, celery or cucumbers or carrots or beets. and that’s, that makes an excellent soupbase. so now i’m making turning your soup into,turning you milk into even something else which is amazing. plus if your juicer is not working because,you know, on the vsj, you know, that’s going to help it work better. so i mean, look, we’re already done, stopped,pulp’s stopped flowing, the milk’s stopped flowing. looks like on this one we made 28 ounces total.
and looks like we made a lot more pulp thanon the almonds. but we had a lot more, you know, coconut inthere. so once again, you know, i want to show youguys this pulp. that’s the pulp there. here’s it in my hand. i’m squeezing this as hard as i can. i can’t even get it to get a drop out. now, you know, when i juice vegetables inthe vsj, you know, depending on the vegetable that i’m juicing, you know, there will bea drop or two but doing it in this method
gets it completely dry. and once again, i don’t recommend you guyspouring the coconut water and put chunks of coconut meat. that’s not the same as doing this the wayi did it with the blender. that’s going to put extra wear and tearon your screen and it may break your screen. plus it’s not going to get the level ofextraction or the level of delicious goodness that i showed you guys today. now i got to try me some coconut milk. and we’re going to go ahead and pour thisout so you guys can see the consistency on
that. look at this. that’s a nice milk consistency. we’ve got that froth on the top, which issome of the fat starting to separate a little bit. so you want to shake it up. go ahead and pour this out. nice coconut milk. you know, i do recommend you guys drink differentnut milks, whether that’s almond milk or
once again, the coconut milk will store inthe fridge 3 to 5 days is what how long i like to store it maximum. this stuff’s not going to last more thana day hanging out in my house. it’s a treat for me to make the nut milks. i prefer to, you know, have maybe a handfulof nuts or seeds or a coconut a day. i don’t generally like to, you know, makenut milks because i find that if you continue to make nut milks, you’re going to maybe,you know, raise the amount of fats that you’re eating in your diet. so i like to use it for a special treat onoccasion instead of just the main stay in
my diet like many americans make cow’s milka main stay in their diet. i would encourage you guys to make fresh vegetablejuices a main stay in your diet. and use this for treats. but that’s just my opinion on it. let’s go ahead and try this coconut milkhere. mmmm! now i’m tasting some particulate in there. you don’t like the particulate you’rejust going to want to go ahead and run this through a little strainer to get all thatstuff out.
but other than that, i got to say it’s totallydelicious. i much more prefer the coconut milk over thealmond milk. you guys see we’re getting some of the separationin there. so you just cap this off and shake it up. it will recombine. but yeah, store it no more than 3 to 5 days. and once you have it to this level, you know,then you could add it to smoothies, you know. you could use the juicer to juice vegetablesat the same time or fruits to make other kind of concoctions, you know.
fruit and coconut milk concoctions. you could use it to make coconut milk infusedwith turmeric and ginger and carrot juice or carrots for a soup base. i’ve done it with bell peppers and tomatoes. i mean, the possibilities are endless whenyou guys have the right appliances to do the best job at home. and this is what i encourage for you guys. you know, instead of like playing with stupidnut milk bags, getting your hands all dirty and then trying to clean that thing, pickup these appliances, both the vitamix turboblend
vs and the omega vsj843. not only will be able to make nut milks, youwill also be able to enable your family to get healthier by eating and including morevegetables and fruits in your diet. specially the leafy green vegetables. because this makes leafy greens much moreeasy to eat. like i couldn’t just sit there and eat allthe coconut meat out of this. some of you guys like to do that. i don’t like to do that. i would much rather drink the coconut milkto get the nutrients from the coconut meat.
and i’m not, this is not coconut oil, youknow. coconut oil is a 100% fat. we do have some fat content in here. i’m sure some of that went, came out withthe pulp. but that’s a pretty, you know, low fat pulpthere at that point it tastes horrible. i tasted the almond meal off camera. i, i had to spit it out. it’s like ugh this doesn’t taste good,so dry. but i want you guys to get your fats fromwhole food sources, you know, such as making
your own almond milk and extracting your owncoconut milk with the machines. and these what, that’s what the machinedoes with the vegetables. it could take one pound of leafy green vegetables,you juice them, you make one cup of juice. hey that’s a, that’s a cool thing. you could actually juice your coconut milk. and then add some, you know, vegetables andthings in it and have a coconut milk vegetable juice. and then you’re going to get, guess what? you’re going to get higher uptakes of thephytonutrients in the vegetables because when
you’re adding some fat into that, you know,it hangs out in our digestive system longer so your body could access more of the nutritionin there. so yeah, i love these machines for makingthe nut milks. and now you guys learned the best way to doit possible. and if i learn any new ways to do it, i’llcome out with newer videos. but at this point i don’t know how thiscombination could be beat for making any kind of nut milks out there. if you guys enjoyed this episode, hey pleasegive me a thumbs up. also be sure to support me and my work bymaking your purchase at discountjuicers.com.
