  • We are trying various different milk alternatives.

    First was alpro shhh this is not milk

    It had a weird artificial flavour a bit like milk flavoured sweets. It foamed well for coffee but the foam broke down quickly. In tea the first mouthful tasted strongly of raw oats/ improperly prepared porridge but this subsided with following mouthfuls.

    Now trying oatly oat drink whole. Much better, less artificial flavour. Worked well for coffee and with cereal. Yet to try with tea.

    After that we have to try out - alpro oat barista, alpro almond barista, minor figures barista oat, oatly oat drink barista, minor figures organic barista oat.

    One noticeable effect of moving away from milk is that the caffeine hits much harder. Something I notice when I drink black v60 coffee too.

  • Minor Figures is the tits.

    I used to drink Oatly at home but then my girlfriend said no more once they received funding from Blackstone and the oat milk company that was (very vocally) trying to fight ‘the man’ kinda became ‘the man’. Or something. Minor Figures tastes better and the branding is cooler anyway.

  • Yes it was Oatly that had a court case trying to stop this brand with its oh so similar packaging

  • Minor Figures

    I found that this doesent froth as well as Oatly barista :(

  • Same here. My partner is vegan and I occasionally use oat milk in my coffee. We were using Oatly but stopped for the same reasons (plus when you see celebrities investing in a company is usually not a good sign). Switched to Moma mainly for the price, she said it's good and prefers its taste to Oatly, recently bought some Rude Health organic, I was blown away with how creamy it is and tastes really good.
