Learn how to make oat milk that's not slimy! I'll share 3 tips plus a secret trick. Oat milk is a creamy, vegan, plant-based, dairy-free milk. All you need are oats, water, and a blender - it's easy!
One thing to keep in mind when making oat milk is that store-bought options are heavily processed with additives. That's how brands like Oatly can achieve a certain consistency and even become frothy. And while homemade options don't froth up the same way, you'll know exactly what's going into it and you can make it fresh on demand. Enjoy!

@@Nirmadify I actually did buy it and had hoped to use it, but you're right, it's super concentrated. After doing the math you would have only needed 1/10 of a teaspoon for the quantity of this recipe and I thought that would be too difficult for most people to measure. But for larger batches it would work great! :)

Please may I ask, did you try just washing the oats, as you would rice? I would think that would remove a lot of the starch that makes them slimy just as washing the rice makes them less gluggy after cooking! But I'm curious if you tried, I've tried many but my son (who's drank store bought all his life) is close to not trying any more that I make as he hates the homemade stuff!

Hi there! Food scientist here! The sliminess actually comes from a soluble fiber found in oats called beta-glucan. It's one of the things that makes oats so healthy. Beta-glucan can polymerize like crazy so the more you break down the oats, the more b-glucan is released from the matrix of the cells and the more slimy it can get. Heat can also help release the b-glucan and the friction in blenders can create heat that makes it more slimy. So your tip for cold water is spot on! Now, about the enzymes you added, I think the soaking step could've also played a role in reducing the sliminess, not just the enzymes because you can wash part of the b-glucan out. Just some nerdy stuff haha! :)

@@thebiglie865 My thoughts exactly. I'll try it and report back. Maybe we can make two kinds of oat milk, i.e. use the slimy one for things where it doesn't bother.

There's a huge difference between oat milk and avena, as well as rice milk and horchata. You see, oat milk and rice milk are marketed as trendy health foods and are more expensive. Also many hipsters are secretly afraid of ethnic foods and prefer them to be more "dumbed down" sort of like the difference between real Mexican tacos and Chipotle.

FYI: That enzyme you are using from the capsules can be found at brewing supply stores. It's directly used for breaking down starches for making beer and spirits from grains. In fact if you are interested in going that route, research beer brewing to get some tips. It probably wouldn't hurt to cook the oats a bit before adding the enzyme in this process.

I use the two metal nesting sieves you can get from Dollar Tree, doubled up. I had to move the oats around with a spoon when the oats clogged the sieve, but by doing this the liquid would eventually run through. When the pulp in the sieve was looking pretty dry, I dumped the ball of oat pulp into a bowl and poured another batch through. It took a little longer. If it is too thick, I add a little water and shake it up. I cooked up the oat pulp with some extra fresh oats for oatmeal. I'm going to try my metal superfine coffee strainer and may even try my French Press to see if those would work better.

@@eltorillavega Hey! I don't think it will. The digestive enzymes are amylase, which means that this enzyme is only designed to break down starches- not any other nutrients. Your body also naturally produces enzymes like amylase to break down starches you eat- from your saliva in your mouth to the stomach, so it wouldn't be removing any nutrition from the oats.

As Jim noted, amylase is used by brewers during the mashing phase to convert starch to sugar. Amylase occurs naturally in malt. Perhaps adding a little malt and tuning the process could result in oat milk that's naturally sweeter and less slimy? Alpha and beta amylase are most active around 160F/70C and 140F/60C, respectively.
@Downshiftology
@Downshiftology 4 жыл бұрын
Because I'm gluten-free I can't use malt. But yes, I think you're 100% right. For those who aren't gluten-free I think that would be another interesting option to tinker around with. I also debated adding straight amylase (I actually purchased from a brewers website) but then realized the amount needed for this small quantity of oat milk was 1/10th of a teaspoon, and I thought that would be too difficult for most to measure. So defaulted back to the enzyme capsules. :)

@@Downshiftology Love the video! I work as a barista and my customers have been very excited that we started carrying Oatly to make their lattes with. I also do work in brewing and fermentation, and as Ketil pointed out the "active" temperatures of amylase is well above the temperature you treated the oats with in the video. I see that you are still getting results, but I would love to do some experimentation with your technique, as well as bringing the oats up to the actual activating temperature of the enzyme while they soak. Another thought is that sprouted oats also produce enzymes, and it may be possible to get the same result from using a small portion of "malted" oats in the recipe to acquire the enzymes. Thanks again!

Could the rincing get rid of tiny particles that could then thicken the mix making it slimy? If on top of that the amylase did not have the best conditions to have any reaction with the oats. Any thoughts?

1:16 I always find labels like that kind of funny since quiet often despite any "gluten free" labels they can still have labels on the back saying "this product may have been packaged in a facility that packages wheat, pork, tree nuts, ground nuts, sea nuts, shellfish, and thermonuclear weapons". I've also noticed that they sometimes charge extra for foods with a gluten free label even if the food wouldnt have any gluten anyways, just because they know some people will pay extra if they see that label because they assume that means its a health food. It can get kind of comical, I saw _kosher salt_ at the store the other day with a "gluten free" label.

It takes me only 10 mins to make oat milk. I use it on oatmeal cereal and smoothies but don't drink milk so don't worry about the texture much and don't need sweetener. I use 3 cups water to 1 cup oat formula and usually make 1/2 batch. I find it works better to blend the oats dry for 20-30 seconds making oat flour and then add water for another 45 - 60 seconds then twice through a mesh metal strainer, done. 1/2 batch is gone in 2-3 days so never spoils.

The amylase breaks down starch to sugars. Adding it to unblended rolled oats does not expose most of the starches to its action. By washing the oats, you have just washed away the broken down sugars too. Amylase should have been added to the extracted oat milk instead. The process should naturally sweeten the milk.

Depends on your goal. You would do this if you are trying to ferment (because in a few days that would start to occur) or if you are trying to add sweetness. This is done, however, to remove some of the starch so it doesn't thicken when heated. It's not for the sugar created that's a by-product. I use a recipe that you soak for 2 days in the amylase and then after blended you heat to deactivate the amylase so it doesn't start to ferment. The sweetness is kept but light. And I can froth that milk without clumping or thickening.
