Aroy-D coconut milk/cream (same product) in a can is very thick consistency, but in the carton it is watery/consistency of whole milk. WHY??

I wish i could help you there. That was one of the reasons I didn't like the product. Hope you find the answer.

The consistency of the yogurt made from raw milk is very different, not very thick. I use gelatin to make it less runny.

It has a watery consistency. It is not thick or viscous at all. The consistency works well under lotion or face cream. All is normal!

I have tried two different cases of this Natural Value Coconut milk and never found a can that wasn't gray in color and a consistency of wet paper pulp. I tried an immersion blender and also a high powered blender to get it smooth and creamy but nothing changed the consistency. Can't figure out why some people get wonderful, white and creamy milk in their cans.

Just be sure that you have used plenty of water so that you have good steam.I have used various grades of milk and found that the lower fat content seems to be better. Also be sure that you insert the steam knozzle deep into the milk and not just on top and use lots of steam and you will have good thick froth. Good Luck

My experience is the cream is much thicker than milk and is only interchangeable in certain recipes. Hope this helps.

no problem, that's normal. I keep mine in the fridge and it's also solid, it's just because there is some coconut oil in the mix.

There will be a significant solid chunk of coconut cream in the can (the good stuff!). This allows you to just use that for whipping or thickening foods but if you want the whole can, you can shake it but there will still be some chunks. I find a whisk will do a decent job but if you want a completely smooth milk, you'll need a blender, mixer, etc. to get it smooth. You can also warm it slightly which will also help blending. Hope that helps.

I am afraid I do not know the answer, as I have not baked with it. I can tell you that he texture of the coconut creme is harder than a regular creme. I would probably try coconut milk first.

You can use as creamer- just shake well. Adding water would be your preference. If you refrigerate, if turns to cream in can. I open a can at room temp and pour in a jar. I use 1/2 cup each morning in my protein shake and 1/2 cup unsweetened "cartooned" coconut milk. You can also use this for making dairy free whipped cream. Refrigerating causes it to separate. Open can and pour liquid off. (Save watery liquid for something else). Put heavy cream part in mixing bowl and beat until consistency you like. Add a little sugar and vanilla while mixing.

I do not know! Got me curious now. It does not disperse well in water and milk.... it is truly very oily. I'll try it tonight. I think I have some rum or some tequila floating around (I'm going to charge you for the tequila, though).

This is a clear liquid. There was a creamy bit in the center, but it was basically liquid also. BUT I also live in the desert and keep it in the pantry.

Yes, but it doesn't always come out as thick; sometimes your grains will get all temperamental when you switch things up on them (like even just switching milk brands can throw them off a batch or two). I use mine to make almond milk kefir and coconut milk kefir but it only ever comes out thicker if I add a tsp or 2 of coconut sugar (separation happens regardless). Sugar and minerals are what kefir grains ultimately feed on, which is why I add a tiny amount of coconut sugar (it's rich in minerals). It's also a good idea to do milk batches every once in a while, otherwise they'll starve.

No, this is coconut milk and is thinner than coconut cream. The cream does separate, though, so if you want to you can scoop the coconut cream out rather than mixing it up.

There is nothing added at all. From the box currently in my pantry:"Ingredients: coconut cream 100%. NO preservatives or additives. Product of Thailand."In case it matters to you, my understanding (when researching a couple years ago) is that Aroy-D is one of the VERY few coconut products that comes from a company not actively involved in the sex-trade/trafficking industry, as well (which is HUGELY active in that area). And, unless something has recently changed, the paper cartons they are packaged in are BPA-free also.

I use milk and I just mix to the consistency that I want a bit thinner at first as it will thicken , Hope this helped

Alex, I have tried a few kinds of milk from the grocery stores...Skim, 1% and 2% and they would not set. They came out very soft. Almost like a spread and no flavor. No one cared for it. Whole milk was ok, but the best is raw milk right from the farm. It was " GREAT ". So I'm thinking Almond or Soy milk ( which has no fat contents ) won't work well at all. I hope this answered your question.
