Great product, but a few things you should know...
|
| Review Date: December 30, 2007 |
| Reviewer: Roger Sharp, Portland, OR USA |
I've had the SDZ-5 for about nine months now, making 2-5 batches a week. I agree with all the favorable assessments posted here about ease of use and quality of contruction, but I do have some tips for its use. Here are my top 5:
First, my family and I found we didn't like plain "undoctored" soymilk, at all. You'll find that there are plenty of recipes on the internet for making soymilk that approximates what you buy in the store. We add 2T uncooked oatmeal to the soybeans in the machine before cooking. After cooking, we add 2 T sugar, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1 T vanilla to the finished product. Very tasty!
The end product still won't taste exactly like the brand of soymilk that you're currently drinking, but give it a couple of weeks and it'll probably become your new favorite. If you're like us, you may remember that it took you a while to get used to soymilk when you switched from dairy. Same thing here.
Second, we filter the cooked soymilk/oats through a piece of cheesecloth rubber-banded to the top of the unit, before adding flavorings. If you don't, you end up with with a fine, somewhat grainy sediment (okara) when you get to the bottom of the batch. You can get cheesecloth in a lot of grocery stores and kitchen shops. My machine came with cheesecloth for use in making tofu, but I found it so tightly woven that it tried my patience waiting for the soymilk to drain. Regular cheesecloth does the trick just fine. I rinse the cheesecloth and throw it into the laundry so it can be re-used.
Third, make sure to give filter a good scrub after each use (I throw it in the dishwasher afterward for good measure). The mesh is very fine, so it's easy for it to get gummed up, and easy not to notice.
Four, use a nice big piece of cheesecloth in a nice big colander to filter out the "whey" when you make tofu. As mentioned above, the included cheesecloth is too finely woven and too small to be of use.
Five, once you run out of the little packages of tofu "coagulant" that come with the machine, you can use 1 tsp of Epson salt as a fine alternative. Epson salt is a naturally occuring mineral salt (magnesium sulfate). It's perfectly safe to consume epson salt -- it's sold for internal use as a, ahem, laxitive. Happily, the small amount that remains in the finished tofu is too small to have this effect! |
Perfect Customer Service

| For some reason my machine decided one day to not work. Period! I called the customer service number, went through the test check no luck. Since I just purchased it 2 months ago and had the SDZ5 they are replacing it! The service was pleasant and courteous even with my phone out of whack and disconnecting twice while we were on the line. I love my machine and the service is wonderful! |
Great soymilk maker

| I love this thing. Actually my husband is the one who does the work but I love the milk it makes. It's super-fast (something like 15 minutes) and easy to clean. We've only used it a few times so far but hopefully it will last a long time. He adds a little bit of sugar which really covers the beany taste. He also makes tofu with the tofu kit. Very yummy but still figuring out how to press it firmly. I highly recommend this product. |
Terrific Soy Milk Maker

| Reviewer: J. English, Oxford, NJ |
| WOW!! What a terrific machine. I was so excited to find this machine so my children could enjoy the wonderful benefits of healthy milk. The Soy Quick is so easy to use and makes alot of milk. The machine is extremely cost effective and most of all makes delicious milk. I know I have found the best product on the market. The best part is that Soy Quick stands behind their product and will do what ever they can to ensure the customers happiness and continued use in their machine. |
compact and simple

| Reviewer: Verne BEDWELL, KITWANGA BC CANADA |
We purchased this machine in 2006, love it!
Tasty milk in less than half-an-hour; the soy milk produced can also be made into great-tasting tofu with a little extra effort and the tofu press that came with my machine. If one wants to make tofu one can purchase soy-quick coagulator from Kitchens Best.
The leftover pulp, known as okara, can be added to many recipes and can also be frozen for later use. In addition to soy milk, this machine makes wonderful rice milk and both cooked and raw nut milks. We like to add almonds to the rice milk. You can experiment with adding different flavorings and sweeteners to taste.
Cleaning consists of using a little care (as with most small kitchen appliances) to keep the power head out of the water while cleaning the attached grinding unit. Both the pitcher and filter are good quality stainless steel and easily cleaned with the provided scrub pad.
My daughter has accidentally dropped the machine into a sink-full of water, and, although I wouldn't recommend doing this, it still works great.
We really appreciate the removable cord.
Last but not least was the awesome service provided by Kitchens Best staff!
I called them on a Friday afternoon, they said they wouldn't be able to ship until Monday, yet Monday morning it was at the Post Office in our small northern B.C. community. We later ordered an extra tofu press and a quantity of tofu coagulant which we received with the same good service. They provided courteous and dependable service, a real delight to speak to real people and not a machine, a little old fashioned and we like it.
We enjoyed the comfort of an extended warranty though we have not had to use it.

| Reviewer: tallmilk, |
| This is the best Product Iv seen on the market because its backed by a 2 year warranty ,I was going to take it back because it only makes 3 cycles of milk a day. I need more than that a day for protein.Then I called soyquick costumer service and they were very help fool and told me they would sale me another machine for used for half the price ...that helps because I need more protein than the average person ...this product does save you $ you can go to Asian markets and get dried soy beans. 99 ranch is a good place to shop .....don't go to rip off health stores ... |
Great Product a little hard to clean if you don't do it right away.

| Reviewer: findoutthebest, |
While it is difficult to clean I actually have found it easiest to have a dish full of water and then wipe down all of the parts when it has cooled down enough.
I have been making soy milk for almost a year.
Last week I made 4 batches in 1 day so that I can use it in macaroni and cheese. If I soak it at least 8 hours and only fill it around 2/3rds full I haven't had any problems with it not grinding fully. I can get 48 oz of soy milk with only 85-100 grams of soybeans. |
not so good one from my point of view

| Ordered one since I found previous reviews are so good. But actually this machine is just so so compared with the one I used before. I will put more details later.. |
Disappointing
|
| Review Date: December 31, 2007 |
| Reviewer: Charles Byrne, Champaign, IL |
As a longtime vegan, I was looking forward to owning one of these. Unfortunately, the 'milk' it generated -- despite numerous recipes and types (soy, nut, rice) -- was disappointing. Not undrinkable, but not anything like your standard store brands. Worse, however, is the maintenance the thing needs: it requires a lot of very intricate scrubbing, and if you don't do it *immediately* after making a batch, it becomes nearly impossible to clean. Particularly annoying is the filter basket, which they claim *must* be completely clean, but which has holes so tiny this task is nearly impossible (and uses a disappointing amount of water, energy, etc).
In any case, be *certain* that you are willing to live with this item's disadvantages before purchasing. The company claims a '30-day money-back guarantee' free trial period; what they don't reveal to you is that even though they ship the product to you from within the US, if you wish to return the item, it must be sent to Canada. With the weight of the item, this will cost a *minimum* of $25 -- which is a pretty pricey 'trial'. |
