Arcmira Automatic Nut Milk Maker

Im starting off with 5 stars will update if any issues arise down the line. I have only used it once to make a "milkshake" for my daughter. I like this machine, it is decently powered and will happily murder whatever you put into till its liquid. Cleaning is a little time consuming but I wouldnt say hard, I use the wash setting after washing the lid and wiping the rim area that the lid covers then I carefully rinse in the sink making sure to keep the water inside and not drizzle down the body as I rinse the soap out, it's not hard just not very fast, if there's soap and such on the outside I damp clean it and wipe dry. The machine is attractive on the counter and small so it's not in the way and looks nice, I can't say if it's over priced as I've never had a different machine for comparison aside from a blender but my blender is not capable of getting things cut down as finely as this little machine does, but I also just have an average blender, not some fancy nutribullet thing or ninja, since I rarely use my blender I liked this for the price and size as it fits more to what my needs are rather than getting those types of blenders which are costly and quite large. *It is easy to use, just tap the menu button till the desired program flashes and then leave it alone, it will auto start in a few seconds, only cancel and the menu button are touch, the rest of the display is just informative of which program you chose and how many minutes. *If what youre putting in is frothable lower the max a line or two. Since this is designed for nutmilks which are very low froth it is something to pay attention to. Adding milk based things even in room temp setting requires reducing the amount, this is not a downfall, we are just using the machine outside it's design. *Next, if you need a quick stop you can lift the lid on the side of the handle, this way you don't have to fully remove it to trigger the shut off which is handy for a quicker stop than the cancel button. *A big note as it might seem like this unit is two pieces, IT IS NOT TWO PIECES.

My mother in law recommended this milker and I really liked this. I made a purchase for my parents who loves 콩국수 (kong-guk-su: soybean soup cold noodle - korean, one of summer's popular dish). Over the summer may parents' and my in-laws' cook their own, one of their favorite, cold noodle. They have to soak the soybean, grind it, drain it, mix it, and all kind of things to make the soybean broth/soup/milk. It takes them a long time to make, perhaps a day. However, with this product, it became so easy and still very delicious. It takes only 10~15minutes!! Plus, they have an option to enjoy the noodle hot! Beans/nuts do not need to be soaked prior, easy to clean, bit loud but very manageable, does not take up too much space, pretty, and there is a recipe booklet. Only downfall is that it makes only 2 servings at once. But I'm sure I can wait another 15mins. I will try other recipes.

Even if the light worked on the panel, the lettering is so small it almost takes a magnifying glass. My panel had no light. The buttons did not work. It looks like you can put the top in the refrigerator, but I did not separate that I could find. You can't put the whole thing in the refrigerator because the base has electronics in it. Also, POORLY DESIGNED. Where the spout is it is not sealed. So if you fill it when it churns liquid will come out the top of the hole. We did not test this. Half full it was reaching the hole where the spout was, but if it was full we would have to stick some paper in it to make sure liquid did not come out. For us, the panel is unreadable, no light, and the buttons only worked in one small place that was off in a strange location. Whatever the buttons or how the buttons were suppose to work it did not make sense. As you can see, this is a poorly designed product that you have to "make work" not that it was designed for consumer use. We turned it on one time and are returning it.

I love the machine itself. I've made soy milk and hemp seed milk. I even made a thick cashew cream that is a great whipped cream substitute. Making the cream was a little bit of a strain on the motor and it shut off, which is a good thing. It has a built in motor protection. I let the motor cool down and finished the process. The soy milk was super awesome. I love it much better than any store bought soy milk. And it only took one scoop, which is about 1 tablespoon of soy beans, to make a little over one cup of soy milk. So, I'm thinking it will be much more economical and convenient than buying heavy soy milk cases at Costco. And I'm thinking healthier too with no additives or added sugar. I did soak the beans over night in another container and drained and rinsed the soaking water off. It takes 18 minutes to make the soy milk. It's pretty cool watching the machine cook and blend the beans. It blends the beans so well, no need to filter through a nut bag. Not too loud. It is a little inconvenient to clean the machine. I added hot water and a drop of soap while using the self clean mode, but still needed to use a sponge to clean the sides. It had a little bit of oily residue that didn't come clean with the self clean mode. I think the most inconvenient part is filling the container with water. It is glass, so you have to be very careful not to bump it on the faucet. Maybe it's my sink and faucet that makes it harder. Would be easier with a deeper sink and one of those curved faucets. I like the fact that it is glass, but I'm a little nervous that I will break it at some point. I tend to break things too often, so this might just be a person issue. But if the glass container was detachable, it would make it a lot easier to clean. Having to unplug it every time you clean or pour is a little inconvenient, but it's not that hard to do. Just reach around to the back and it easily unplugs. The buttons were a little confusing to me at first, but I did figure it out. You push the right button to the mode you want and then the machine starts on its own in a few seconds. I kept thinking I needed to push the start button, but I think that was putting it into pause mode. It's a little hard to see the words and I had to put on my reading glasses. I'm imagining that with repeated use, I will just know the settings without having to bend over and read the tiny words. Even with the complaints I have, overall, I'm happy with the soy/nut milk maker. It's a great size and easy to operate and super nice to be able to easily make soy or nut milks at home fresh that was so well blended. Very reasonable price also. Hopefully it will last many years.

After seeing a lot of ads on TikTok and given the fact I used to enjoy making my own fresh soy milk, I researched and ordered this model. So far i've made almond, walnut and soy milk with it and very happy with the results. Soy milk (hot) takes about 20 minutes and the other (room temperature) milks about 5 minutes. The machine is aesthetically pleasing as it's made of high quality sturdy (pyrex-type?) glass, and easy to clean with the (1 minute) self-clean option. For the soy milk, I ordered organic soy beans online (my local Whole Foods no longer stocks them), and learned that less is more, so about 2-3 spoons of beans is enough with the water level on the max level. Otherwise you might end up making Tofu... There is a timer, so you can set for example a ten hour countdown at which point, your new alarm will be this noisy machine waking you up with fresh soy milk. Downsides are that it's noisy but no more so than any other kitchen appliance, and the writing is very small for choosing the various options, but it's fine once you've learned the positions of the various options. Also, for soy milk, I don't run it through the accompanying cheese cloth but that's my tasting preference.

Not very easy to clean. Even with the self cleaning mode, there’s still some soy residue that get stuck below the blades that’s unreachable.

I bought this product because I wanted to control what is in the nut milk that I'm drinking. I don't like the fact that the store-bought ones seem to always have some type of oil in them. After trying different nuts, I have settled on cashew milk. Just 1 cup of cashews and some water makes a really good, creamy nut milk that I enjoy in my coffee or on my cereal. I have not used it with the heat option. I always make it at room temperature. It's easy to use, easy to clean and gives me peace of mind that I know what I am putting in my body.

If someone hadn't made me try their homemade soy milk, I might never have ordered this or dared to try it myself. How lucky am I! Not having all the carageenan and other assorted mystery or troublesome ingredients in the creamer for my coffee or tea is spectacular! Making fresh yogurt with real, homemade soymilk? OHMYGOSH. The difference in taste is worlds apart and if you don't even like store bought soymilk you could LOVE the real thing because the flavors are complex, nuanced, and nutty. (Spoiler alert, you might moan.) My first try was a bit messy because I didn't know to hold the nut bag loosely. I was trying to force the hot liquid out with my hands. It wants to come out on it's own, and this is the easy way. There are videos. Also love that you don't have to soak the beans beforehand with this appliance, you can just charge ahead. So, what are you waiting for? Charge! Your life will thank you.

So much fun to make my non-dairy-milks (NDMs)! And best part is I can make them exactly to the consistency I need - thicker sometimes, thinner other times. AND I can make them on demand so I always have a fresh batch of my NDM in just the right quantities. Making NDM is so easy with this machine. It is quieter than I expected and in 5 minutes (for oat and coconut milk anyway) I have a fresh batch. For my needs, the size is perfect.

This product does not last. It is leaking after 10 months of use. Warranty is only 90 days. Also the self cleaning function doesn't work very well as the blade only rotate in one direction and some small debris get trapped at the bottom where the sealing gasket meets the glass. Due to short life span and short warranty period and poor cleaning, I wouldn't recommend this product.

Bought it sor wife for Christmas, she loves it

It’s worth full. easy and works good. I love it.
