    Now this I have to try! Could you talk me through how you do this? Just read a quick article on it: you only blend oats and water, then strain it? Would coffee filters be good for straining?

      I use a metal strainer.

      I had to try out a couple of recipes in order to get one that works well.

      My recipe:

      Oat Milk:

      1. 1 cup oats

      2. 6 cups water (chilled)

      3. 1 tsp vanilla

      • Add all to blender and blend on high for 30-40 seconds
      • Strain with strainer 2x
      • Add maple syrup for flavoring (and/or honey) 3 tbsp

      Keeps for about a week.

      Theres some other similar ones like: https://www.loveandlemons.com/oat-milk/ that work out well and may keep for longer (salt).

        Do you try cooking the oats, or just cold soak?

          I think its quick oats? It just said oats when I bought them but I get them in bulk food or 25 pound bags once a year-ish.
