Lékué Veggie Drinks Maker Kit 1L

Product number: 26317

Whether you need to avoid dairy products, or are just trying to add new, healthy ingredients to your diet, Lékué’s 1 Litre Veggie Drinks Maker may be just what you need to keep costs down and be certain of exactly what’s going into your diet. Making it exceptionally easy to create non-dairy ‘milk’ from nuts, cereal grains or soya – with the help of your stick blender – this simple-to-use system means you can be totally sure of every ingredient that goes into what you eat and drink and never worry about hidden sugars or inadequate food labels.

Just choose the nuts, grains or seeds you’d like to turn into a drink and follow the clear instructions to get a 100% natural, home-made drink that’s delicious as well as good for you. It’s easy to add natural sweeteners like honey, maple syrup or agave syrup if you wish, or to suit a recipe if you’re baking with your home-made veg-based ‘milk’ but, whatever you make, you can be sure you’re in total control of the provenance of your food.

A 2-part system, this kit offers a 1 litre storage container with an airtight silicone lid and a separate soaking container, so you can be soaking a second batch while you’re enjoying the benefits of one you made earlier.

Easy to make veggie drinks

  • Step 1 Soak your chosen ingredient in water for 12 hours*, following the easy-to-read levels on the side of the tall jar for the quantities.
  • Step 2 Blend the water and ingredients with a stick blender on its slowest speed for 2-3 minutes.
  • Step 3 Sieve through the fine stainless steel mesh insert once it’s settled for 2-3 minutes, then serve immediately or decant the ‘milk’ into the clear, lidded container for storage.
  • Step 4 The residue of ground nuts, rice or seeds that’s left below the fine stainless steel mesh can be used to bake energy bars, or ground into flour for biscuits, pastry and dough – so nothing need go to waste.
* For soya, quinoa, walnuts, tiger nuts and rye grains; after their soaking time, insert the mesh filter and drain off the water leaving the ingredients in the container – then remove the filter, add fresh water up to the mark and follow on from step 2.

Store in the fridge

Once your veggie drink is made and you’ve decanted it from the maker into the clear storage container, press the silicone lid on firmly and refrigerate. Shake well before you pour out each serving. Your freshly made veggie drink will keep in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Strong and durable, the Veggie Drinks Maker is made from poplypropylene, platinum-grade silicone and stainless steel. It’s heat-resistant up to 80°C, dishwasher safe for super-easy clean-up, and free from BPA.

"Lovely almond milk & oat milk"

star star star star star_border

It was the manufacturer's helpful tips which encouraged me to give this product a try plus the fact that I cannot tolerate cow's milk or the emulsifiers that are added to plant based milks - I had to find an alternative milk! I like the sturdy containers in which you can make up the milks, filter and store & wash -no need to use bowls, large mixers, nutbags, cloths etc. I found making almond milk the easiest: it needs to be filtered at least twice and I used a tea strainer at the end too. Oat milk required more filtering but again, it produced a lovely tasting product. I am really pleased.

"A good idea"

star star star star_border star_border

I prefer plant 'milk' to dairy and so was looking forward to using this piece of kit. I have so far made different nut milks and oat (gluten free) milk. The taste is excellent and the milk maker easy to use and clean. The problem I have found with it, is that the filter doesn't actually filter out all the residue, so, for example, there is always an amount of whatever has been used to make the milk actually left IN the liquid. This is fine for the nut milks but causes a problem when trying to cook with the oat milk as the oat residue ALSO cooks (it caused a problem in the soup maker).

"Not great"

star star_border star_border star_border star_border

I am vegan and so was really pleased when I saw this item for sale because I thought I would be able to make my own non dairy milks. The filter does not remove all the nut residue. This results in a unpleasant look and texture . The oat “milk” thickens when heated and also separates when stored separates into water and solids.

support_agent A note from the team

We’re very sorry to hear this and will be in touch shortly to arrange a refund. Our supplier has stated that: 1. If you blend thee nuts too small it means residue is getting through the mesh. They suggest to blend less then filter twice. 2. Always ensure you rest the liquid for 2-3 minutes after blending before filtering. 3. If you’re using a professional level blender then blend for less time, around 60 seconds. We hope you find this helpful
