I love the M1 and I own the original Nama and the J2 but their is no comparison when making Nut milk. The way I see it Health is wealth no price on my health and what I put in my body. I appreciate your video is spot on and love how u touch all points.
Thank you for taking the time to detach the filter and show the pulp after extracting the plant-based milk. All other unboxing videos I've seen so far stop right after making the milk, so we can't see the dryness of the pulp or whether it'd be easy to detach and clean the M1 components. I'm sold!
Yeah! That’s an important step for sure. Nama really designed it well with the centrifuge spin to dry out the pulp and then the way the scraper pulls the pulp off the screen. The silicone pad and pouch are super convenient too! Glad you’re sold! You’ll love it! If you need a discount code, mine is: JFM1 Appreciate you tuning in!
The versatility of the silicon pad is top tier. I am not even a a plant based milk lover BUT anything homemade/made from scratch is ALWAYS BEST in my book. I am definitely going to purchase in the near future.
Love that you mentioned pre-soaking is a good thing! Just because one can skip a step doesn't always mean one should skip a step. The machine looks nice, and I'm somewhat tempted, but the price feels steep. Mostly, I make hemp seed milk. I use a 17-year-old Vitamix. It takes a minute or so to get my ingredients together, a minute to blend, and about 2 minutes to clean/dry. I don't strain. There's little need with hemp seeds. I just store my milk in a Mason jar and shake 'er up before using. Stays fresh for 5 days in the fridge. I do make occasional batches of almond butter, and I make roasted almond milk to clean out the Vitamix after. I don't strain that other than using a sieve, as it really doesn't need it. Raw almond milk is lovely, of course, and probably better health-wise, but fresh, roasted almond milk is outta this world for taste! I could see using this machine for pumpkin seed milk, which I normally do with my Sana 727, though it's a two-step process. The trouble is that I can't afford the pumpkin seeds often enough to justify the cost of a dedicated milk machine. If I could convince my husband to use home-made plant milk in his coffee, but so far, I've had no luck with that. He prefers artificially sweetened processed creamers. I tasted one of his once and couldn't stand it. The odd bit is he likes the low-sugar juices I make. I don't know what he has against my plant milks. I use my hemp seed milk in coffee and it is wonderful! Creamy, frothy, rich! We share similar tastes in coffee too. He likes a medium roast, and I like dark, and he likes hot coffee, while I prefer low-acid cold brew, but we often buy very similar beans. Maybe if Nama does a good sale at some point in the future.
Yeah! Lots of variables to consider for sure! It’s definitely a premium price. The creamers you can make on it are super easy and very rich so I like that too. If one buys a lot of plant based milks at the store, or makes a lot at home, it would pay for itself in a very short time. But if one just buys milks or makes them every so often, then it indeed would be a luxury. So it really depends on the perspective. 15 year warranty so it’s a good long term investment for someone who makes a lot of milk. Nama usually has a Black Friday sale so stay tuned to my channel for that when they do! Thanks for tuning in and let me know if you have any other questions!
@@JuiceFeaster I definitely like the warranty, and will be watching in case of a Black Friday sale. I'd love to get hubby off the processed coffee creamers, but that may be a lost cause. I'm sure I could have some fun with the machine though.
@@GrayHomeVideo yeah!! The warranty is unbeatable! You may have to slip in a plant-based creamer version in disguise to get your husband to like it haha Yeah! Stay tuned to my channel for any sales that might come up!
I’m so glad that Nama rolled out this milk maker! The other makers I’ve used just don’t do the job, and the milks I’ve tried from the store are either full of junk or so thin they’re tasteless. Can’t wait to fire this baby up!!!
Thank you for this video. I am definitely intrigued. In general, what's the shelf life for homemade Cashew or any other plant based milks? Would it last a week or so in the refrigerator? Thanks.
Great question! Fresh is always best, but you can store it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. If you make a recipe with fruit in it, I’d recommend using it in 2 days. It separates naturally in the fridge, but a quick shake and it’s amazing. You can get longer fridge storage, up 5-7 days with vacuum sealing your jars. And you can freeze it too, just be sure to drink immediately as soon as it thaws. And leave a 1-2” headspace in the jar to avoid breaking glass from freezing expansion.

@@kelele291 it makes a great fruit too! In this review video, you can see me make a tomato gazpacho at around the 9:00 minute mark. I also make a raspberry cashew milk at 9:48 minute mark. Lots of recipes use dates and other fruits too. Let me know if you have any other suggestions!

Can you show whether it is possible to make soy milk? There are no videos showing this on youtube which makes me wonder whether it is possible or are people not showing it because you still have to soak the soy beans overnight?
Hello! No, the M1 isn’t designed for soy milk because soybeans need to be cooked before being processed into milk, and the M1 doesn’t have a heating function. Great question! thanks for asking!
Great question! While it works well with making fruit infused milks where the ingredients are nuts, seeds or grains etc, and water, to just put fruit, vegetables greens or herbs in without adding water, won’t really work. You could certainly add those juicing ingredients and then add water which makes a more diluted version of a juice. For example I like to make a raw gazpacho with tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, some cashews, spices etc on the M1, but it requires about a cup of water to allow everything to be blended then strained in the spin cycle. Hope that helps answer your question! Let me know if I can help further! You can check it out additionally here: geni.us/NamaM1
@@JuiceFeaster got it so because it needs water to create the suspension it’s not really juicing. But it’ll blend and separate those fruit particulates/pulp no problem. Thanks for the thoughtful response.
Your review of this product was excellent, however the company will not get my sale because the the hopper where the extraction takes place is plastic. I'm curious as to why glass was not used if this is such a high-end barista quality product.
@@SB-cu2uy thanks! I’m glad you valued my review! Appreciate you tuning in! That question is definitely best directed to Nama, but here’s my assumptions: 1. Cost reduction. In order to keep the cost at a reasonable level, and keep the quality and functionality superior at the same time, my guess is that BPA free, food grade plastic was seen as the best option by Nama. 2. Weight. To keep the machine light and compact, my guess is that they decided to use BPA free, food grade plastic. Also, freight costs are higher with heavier glass or stainless steel. Not only for shipments to customers, but truckload quantity freight to distribution warehouses. 3. Risk / Benefit. With low, cool temperature and low exposure time to the BPA free, food grade plastic during the milk making process, my guess is that Nama doesn’t see a danger or detriment to the quality or safety of using BPA food grade plastic vs glass or stainless steel. Once again, these are all ASSUMPTIONS on my part and not at all statements or facts from Nama. I realize that everyone has a different opinion and / or tolerance of plastic and their effects. For those who feel that way, there are other options. Almond Cow has all stainless steel for the milk making chamber and parts. However it’s awkward to use and doesn’t have the secondary spin cycle like the M1, so the milk isn’t as rich or creamy and the yield isn’t as good. So in my opinion, from a milk quality and quantity standpoint it’s not as good. You can check it out here: geni.us/ACow AlmondCow.co Once again, appreciate your feedback and thanks for tuning in!

Absolutely! And juice and frozen fruit sorbets too! And while the milks are good on the J2, the difference is in the flavor, texture, richness and creaminess with the M1. Here’s why: the M1 uses a high speed emulsion blender initially to emulsify the fats and oils in the ingredients and then a spin cycle to extract the milk from the pulp. The screen pore size on the M1 is much smaller too. The J2 doesn’t do any of this, and this makes an incredible difference in the quality of the milks. So, you’re right, the J2 does make good milk, but the difference in the quality of the milks is night and day once you experience it. Appreciate your comment and appreciate you tuning in!
@@JuiceFeaster And then you’ve got to chase it down twice a day weather you want milk right then or not. Wipe the poop off its utter and then sit there yanking on its tit for 15 minutes. Been there, done that. Buy this. It’s way easier, cheaper, cleaner, healthier! 😆
@@LadyElina1 yes! That’s a crazy amount of work! And then the differences in how much water and resources necessary globally for dairy vs plants… crazy! Plant milks all the way! ❤️🌱🥛💚✅
