My Soya milk keeps on going off when put in clean glass jug (with lid) in my 4 Deg C fridge. Please help?

I don't understand the relationship between the Soya Power machine and a glass jug. Could you explain better, please? I had the machine for 2 years, and I have never had a problem: I make the milk in the machine, then pour it into a different container with lid, and store in the fridge...

I don't get it, are you putting the Soya machine to fridge, or the milk in glass jug? Please clarify. The question is very confusing the way it is written. Please explain what's going-off mean? Also, is your Soya machine is going off or milk is going off when put in the fridge? Are you putting in your milk in the fridge or refrigerator? I used the Soya for years, and don't have any problems so far, make a beautiful soy milk. I transfer the milk in a glass jar in the refridgerator and good for a week. Unlike the soy milk made from other machine, the milk made from Soya doesn't settle, and I don't even have to stir them.

Just bought it so not much experience, but it could be a result of the type of milk you use? I used 1% with no spills. Perhaps a thicker milk like 2% may thick up more (and spill over more) than others? Try experimenting and post back. good luck!

I started with 10ml-15ml and then just tested the milk to make sure it was hot enough. If it starts are room temp it may be too hot. If it started from fridge temp it should be fine.

Late answer to your question. I've had the same experience as SRM!: once in awhile a lid will leak when I'm shaking liquid in the jar. A couple of others have suggested using a another brand of lid or putting a new Ball seal lid inside the plastic lid. However, both of these options are metal, so if you're concerned about metal possibly touching your almond milk, here's another option: put a Mason rubber gasket ring inside the lid (available here on amazon) when you really need to avoid leakage. Works like a charm.

Hi Hana, My Soyabella milk maker is 110, but I suspect it could be attached to a converter. Do you want me to try it with a converter and let you know if it works (or self destructs!)? Kate Mayes

I have unplugged my freezer which the Ranco controls the temperature. I do not reset the unit it stays on settings until they are manually changed.

I empty out the milk once a day for the most and clean it off with a cloth + rinse the connectors and the hose.Because of the use I also ad fresh cool milk several times a day, so it never stays for more than half a day or the night over. Try removing the milk every night and rinsing the unit. The milk can be placed back in the refrigerator and added in the morning.This unit works to keep the milk cool BUT I do not think you can substitute a refrigerator with it.

I have tried making tofu using this machine several times using both store-bought and homemade soy milk. It has not set once! I also am not sure if the instructions are referring to liquid or powdered nigari. The milk takes on a terrible taste when I add 10 ml of nigari powder undiluted.

I sit my lids in hot, Hot, HOT (but not boiling) water with a scoop of OxyClean or 2 parts peroxide/1 part hot, Hot, HOT (but not boiling) water and let them soak for about 15 minutes. Make sure the water completely submerges the lid and maybe open and close the lid a few times while submerged. The oxy power eats away at any protein residue (milk, cream, etc.). Once this is done, rinse them really well. I do this every 1-2 weeks. Also, don't screw the lid on if either the lid or the container is wet/damp inside. This is a breeding ground for mold and/or stinky smells.I've had mine for about a year and have not had any issues once I started cleaning them this way.

I'm sorry dear, but I didn't purchase this fridge to experiment with it, I need it to keep my two insulins cool. Why would you need to turn it off? Are you transporting foods? Perhaps you should check out the DC switch and whether there is a transformer adapter you could use in the car. That's only a guess, since I use this for home use (A/C) only. I hope this helps you.

Michael, wife has made about ten batches of yogurt with hers and we have not had that problem at all. Must be a defective thermostat and I would ship it back to the manufacturer.

I have the same problem. Every time I turned it on, it started moving around and the pulp container came off. I had to turn it off, reassemble and clean the mess. I might have got a deceptive one.

It should be very hot after the soy milk is done. Maybe you selected the "juice" option which it will only cuts the fruit but not heating up the juice. Or your machine is not working properly. You should contact the seller. Their customer service will be able to help you.

As it is a fridge, its either turn up the temperature or unplug it.I think it defeats the purpose of a fridge then......

No. I haven't had any problems with that, the seal is really tight. We make almond milk, and it settles, and my daughter (14) does the shaking. I LOVE this item, and having read other reviews, clearly I wouldn't 'make' hot items in it. But duh! It only took me 2 reviews to figure that out! : ) Bottom line, it looks and feels great, and fits nicely in the milk door shelf. Hope this helps!

This is great. I use Elaine G's recipe too so this info helps. I wanted to know if I could use 2% lactose-free milk since I'm short on regular. I'm also going to add 5% cream- which I didn't realize had other ingredients in it- like "modified milk ingredients. " If you can make yogurt with soy milk- [which I would never use], I don't see why this wouldn't work. I'll try and see. I have also found keeping the temp. at the simmer point for a minute before cooling and the culturing temp. a little cooler than suggested makes a thicker, firmer result.

I've never had this problem with mine. In fact, I don't even use the lid anymore. I just put milk in until the stirrer is barely covered, and the the milk doesn't slosh over the edge. Is the lid's rubber gasket seated correctly? Be sure not to fill it above the "Max" line?
