Do I need to strain the milk?

No, you don't.

Straining milk depends on how you want to use the milk. If you want to use it in cooking, baking or in a smoothie you can leave the pulp inside as it is more nutritious. People strain the milk when they want to use it in their coffee because they can feel the pulp in their throat.

Do I have to soak the ingredients?

No, you don't.

MioMat can make milk from any ingredient even without soaking them first. However, we recommend it because the milk will be creamier and more nutritious.

How much ingredients do I need to make one batch of milk?

About half a regular measuring cup.

This depends on what consistency you like your milk to be. We recommend starting with one MioCup of ingredients (1/2 regular US cup or 100 grams) and going from there. Most people like this milk immediately, but some like adding more ingredients for a creamier and denser milk.

Can MioMat make coffee creamer?

Yes, it can.

Just double the amount of ingredients from the milk recipe to get coffee creamer or even more. It depends on your liking :)

People are saying it is overflowing. Why?

Missing grinding cylinder or overfilled MioMat.

MioMat will go at the highest speeds during the milk-making process and if the grinding cylinder is not attached, MioMat will spill out water. Always make sure to have a grinding cylinder attached and water between the lines indicated inside the MioMat.

Why does MioMat not have build-in strainer?

Because it makes the milk more watery.

Build-in strainer greatly restricts the water flow around the blades which results in watery milk.

Can I fortify milk made in MioMat?

Yes, you can.

It is always best to get the needed nutrition from whole-natural ingredients but if you need to, you can fortify your milk with powder supplements.

Tip - Use sesame seeds if you need more calcium dense milk.

Why does MioMat not have a delayed start?

Bloating.

You do not want to make milk with the water you have been soaking the ingredients in because it causes bloating.

Always toss the water you have been soaking your ingredients in and make your milk with fresh water.

How long will the milk made in MioMat last?

2-5 days.

As milk made in MioMat is purely from natural ingredients and does not have any artificial preservatives nor is pasteurized, it will not last as long as a store-bought counterpart. When refrigerated and without salt it is good for about 2 days and 3-5 days if you add a pinch of salt which acts as a natural preservative.

In what should I store the milk?

Glass bottle.

Glass bottles are ideal because they do not interfere with the flavor of the milk and maintain its original quality.

I like flavored milks, can I make them in MioMat?

Yes, you can.

In addition to the endless options from what ingredients you can make your milk, there is also many possibilities for how to add flavor.

You can add natural flavor by using fruits like strawberries, raspberries, bananas... or cocoa, turmeric, cinnamon, vanilla, ginger, cardamom, cloves, etc.

Will the milk made in MioMat separate?

Yes, it will.

As milk made in MioMat does not contain any artificial stabilizers or binders, your milk will separate over time. To fix it just shake the bottle you have your milk in and it is good to go.

Is MioMat noisy?

Depends.

As the core of creamy homemade plant milk is powerful blending, MioMat does make blending noise but it is quieter than regular countertop blender.

Thanks to MioMat having double walls and the motor being on rubber standoffs it is relatively quiet given how big the blending power is.

Is MioMat portable?

Yes, it is.

MioMat only weighs 4.8LB (2.2kg) and its dimensions make it quite compact, making it easy to move around and store if you know you will not use it for a while.

MioMats dimensions are 7x9x12 inch (18x22x30 cm).
