One of the best purchases I’ve made. I bought mine about three years ago and use it every day. Makes enough milk for two latte’s and two smoothies. The almonds from almond cow are the best ones I’ve used. I do soak overnight which helps. If you’re thinking of purchasing, it’s a great investment, hands down.

I hesitated to buy yet another kitchen appliance...well I am elated that I did! I love our new Almond Cow, making almond and cashew milk has never been easier. I even took the pulp and mixed in cacao and peanut butter powder with honey and made granola. Unfortunately, there are so many chemicals in store bought almond milk. My wife feels like bloating is no longer an issue with the homemade almond milk. I recommend the Almond Cow highly! You will not be disappointed.

I really wanted to love this, as it was presented as an easier and quicker solution that using other more manual methods (e.g. cheesecloth and vegan milker). On my 6th round of almond milk and it's so watery. Have followed A.C.s instructions (as well as user suggestions) and it's unfortunately not living up to the hype. Especially for the cost. I'll give it a try on other types of milk, but I'm a bit disappointed for the cost.
But I love the milk jug. So there's something.....
ACAlmond Cow20 hours agoThank you for your review, Stacey.🥛
Here is a link to some tips to help make creamier milk: https://almondcow.co/blogs/tips\-to\-make\-creamier\-milk/
You could also try the creamer method when making milk. It makes less milk but is creamier. Check it out here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1LDeW8Fyjms
Cheers! 🐮✨
