This would make me very happy. I do have a decent vegan shortbread recipe, but it doesn't have the same richness as the non-veg*an variety.

UK startup launches oat milk powder which cuts packaging by 90%

Oat milk powder could be the next big thing, as companies tap into demand for plant-based milks without the packaging…

There was a start up here. I guess it went out of business. You brought your own container and there was a machine that filled it up with plant milk for you. I think it used powder too. but I suppose it wouldn't have to.

I looked up the powdered oatmilk ingredients and it had coconut something in it. I have yet to like homemade oatmilk, I often buy Aldi plain, or Chobani extra creamy with the carrageenan and stuff. I tried So Delicious and it was bad- it said plain but tasted vanilla

This almond milk machine just uses almonds and water for plain almond milk.
Seems to me to be a no brainer. like the peanut butter making machines.

There is a Canadian version available and it is very expensive - Organic Oat Milk Powder (Unsweetened Original)

That is only equivalent to two large regular oat milk at $8.00 for both.

Wait. What are you saying? In my book, $4 for a half gallon would be reasonably priced. Yesterday I bought a half gallon of Soy milk for $5. But I did have a 50¢ off coupon.

I'm not sure if Whole Foods have brought back their peanut butter maker machine. They also had an almond and a cashew machine, too. You poured nuts into the machine and made as much PB as you wanted. You was charged by the weigh at the checkout. But they took them out during Covid. Not sure if they brought them back. Molly Stone's didn't bring them back. but the manager didn't like them. Said they were always breaking down.

Anyway... I see plant milk making to be something parallel. Maybe bring your own container or use one of theirs that you can return. The machine wouldn't need to be refrigerated. Neither would the ingredients. The milk would be pure without the additives. And for those who like the additives - they could be sold separately.

I see big savings, monetarily. Savings in shipping. You're not shipping water. Savings in waste, no containers being thrown out. And a benefit to the environment in both gas and electricity in transport and storage.

The store might also see some savings. Shelf space, stocking, etc.

Maybe I should go on Shark Tank.

I see plant milk machines could be something

I was saying the powdered milk is very expensive - $30 for just 3.5 litres (not even a full gallon) of milk - the regular liquid is very reasonable at $4 for 1.75 litres.
