Has anyone tried this with almond or coconut milk? Do you recommend? Thanks!

I Have tried this with the almond milk and I didn't like it, didn't do so well. My problem with this frother is that the finish is coming off and I don't like that even though I don't scrub it with anything harsh. Love the way it froths tho. Wish I could get one with a stainless steel finish.

I used the froth plus with homemade almond milk and it works really, really well - thick foam just like regular milk. It does not work as well with almond or coconut milk out of a box - think it has something to do with all the additives/oils, etc...

I've tried almond, coconut, & almond coconut blend. Although delicious, very little ( if any) foam. Unsweetened soy froths up beautifully. Please post if you find a coconut milk brand that froths.

I have not tried either, I don't actually recommend this unit but I highly recommend Capresso 202.04 froth plus! This unit is esthetically pleading but MUCH hard to clean, I recommend the less expensive model, I use mine daily but sorry, haven't tried anything but regular milk.

One more thing is that I use just goat's milk it mine and it does a great job!

I have tried all of these home frothers and I found this one to be the best one. Almond, skim and soy milk will not foam as much but it does form enough to make a latte.

Sorry to get back to you late. I haven't tried almond milk but it works great with 2% and Soy milk, so I would think it would have no problem. As long as its still a liquid and not a pulp. But it is really strong, for example if you have it going and you touch the bottom it'll buzz your finger, and keep going. It doesn't stop easily. I've whipped through a marshmallow, thick coco powder, its fast enough to create froth so I think it should work for your purposes. I hope this helped! :)

Hey Alyvia B. They taste suprisingly good :) I use almond milk with mine, I think it makes it taste sweeter. They only thing I would give you a heads up on is if you let it sit for a couple of minutes, shake it before you drink again.

Coconut milk, soy milk, and almond milk can be ussed. The difference will be different foam

Yes, I just happened to have almond milk on hand, so I gave it a whirl. Works perfectly fine.

Greetings! Yes! :) I've "juiced" coconuts many times. Absolutely delicious! Crack open the coconut, drain the water in a blender (I have a vitamix)....make sure the water is clear, not cloudy. Crack out pieces of coconut, put in blender with coconut water, rough chop/blend. Feed into the tribest and watch as the milk pour out. Yummy. I freeze the dry pulp in ice cube trays and use when blending smoothies....great fiber. I absolutely love my tribest. The banana and peach "ice cream" is amazing. I keep frozen fruits in the freezer to make the ice cream or sorbets. Hope this helps.

I use almond milk usually. I also use Califia Farms toasted coconut and almond milk and it tastes like a vanilla shake.

Yep. I tried it once using a recipe I had for soy yogurt. The coconut milk I used wasn't smooth so it was like having yogurt with bits of coconut in it but it was definitely yogurt. Hope that helps.

I have used half and half along with regular coconut milk and or whipping cream and coconut milk. They taste great and do firm up.

First latte I made I used Almond milk and it tasted horrid. Though I like Almond Milk just fine in my cereal it made the latte' undrinkable. I now use 1% cow milk and its perfect.

You can froth both almond milk and soy milk. Someone mentioned earlier that the Almond Breeze brand froths much better than the Silk brand.

Kimberli, i haven't tried coconut milk with the Dash but that is an excellent idea. I plan to try it with Lactaid whole milk soon. I think yogurt works best with fresh whole milk but so many people use low fat that i recommend a little longer set time and the use of Yogourmet powders than using fresh yogurt starter but sometimes I use both. Making sure you follow directions on temperatures is important. I use a candy type thermometer and have best results when I follow Dash's instructions on temps and timing. I would be interested to know if you have success with coconut and/or almond milks too. Kimberli, i haven't tried coconut milk with the Dash but that is an excellent idea.

I personally have never frothed almond milk, but my son has told me that it works well with his Aeroccino. In general, the less the amount of fat in your milk, the better the froth (for example, skim milk or 1% will yield better froth than whole milk). Froth results can also vary between different brands of milk.

Haven't tried that but I have used chocolate milk which worked perfectly. I see no reason it wouldn't froth almond milk.

Yes! I have recently made the switch from cows milk to almond milk. I was a bit worried about frothing the almond milk in the nespresso. But I tried it and it worked perfectly. I'm so happy it can froth anything. I love my nespresso.

Yes, it should work satisfactorily with Almond Milk, but some brands of milk froth better than others.

I just received my Yolife yesterday and made my first soy yogurt using the Silk brand of soy milk. It turned out fine! Not as firm as store brands, but not runny either. Next time I'll try adding something like agar or gelatin to firm it up a bit just to see what happens, and then move on to experimenting with coconut and almond milks. I love my Yolife! It's hard to find nondairy yogurt where I live, but now the search is over.
