 Absolutely fantastic! Over 700 batches and still milking! September 24, 2008

I own the SoyQuick SDZ-4 but being that the two machines are pretty much identical (the SDZ-5 includes a tofu kit and extra warranty), I wanted share with everyone who is looking to purchase a milk maker so they can get all the information they need.
I think my SoyQuick is the best! I really enjoy having home made milk. It is so quick and simple to use and I like that I can make a variety of different milks including raw.
I have had my milk maker for almost 4 years now and it works the same as it did the first day I bought it. I have been very impressed with the quality and flavor of the milk it makes and the fact that it works flawlessly each and every time is a big plus for me.
To top it all off the customer service is great. At first I didn't quite understand what the trick was to cleaning the filter cup. They gave me a few tips and suggestions and presto! A breeze ever since! They also gave me a few recipe suggestions for rice milk which was very helpful.
So a couple months ago I was snooping around the internet when I fell upon SoyQuick's new Premier Milk Maker 930P. The new features really sounded to good to be true. Although there was absolutely nothing wrong with my SoyQuick, I just had to order the new one. I was in total disbelief that my milk maker could get any better. So I have been using it just over 2 weeks and I am in heaven!! I am giving away my other one to a friend because my husband thinks I have a problem, I don't see the harm in having 2 SoyQuicks. I can now make 2 batches of milk at the same time. I don't think he gets it!
I just absolutely love my NEW 2009 Soymilk Maker - SoyQuick Premier Milk Maker 930P. I'm now making soooooo many different combinations of soy, rice and nut milks. No pulp, fast cleaning and the milks are the best. I highly recommend it! It is worth every penny and even though I already have a great machine, this new one is outstanding. Who knew the very best could get any better.
 Disappointing December 31, 2007

As a longtime vegan, I was looking forward to owning one of these. Unfortunately, the 'milk' it generated -- despite numerous recipes and types (soy, nut, rice) -- was disappointing. Not undrinkable, but not anything like your standard store brands. Worse, however, is the maintenance the thing needs: it requires a lot of very intricate scrubbing, and if you don't do it *immediately* after making a batch, it becomes nearly impossible to clean. Particularly annoying is the filter basket, which they claim *must* be completely clean, but which has holes so tiny this task is nearly impossible (and uses a disappointing amount of water, energy, etc).
In any case, be *certain* that you are willing to live with this item's disadvantages before purchasing. The company claims a '30-day money-back guarantee' free trial period; what they don't reveal to you is that even though they ship the product to you from within the US, if you wish to return the item, it must be sent to Canada. With the weight of the item, this will cost a *minimum* of $25 -- which is a pretty pricey 'trial'.
Great product, but a few things you should know... December 30, 2007

I've had the SDZ-5 for about nine months now, making 2-5 batches a week. I agree with all the favorable assessments posted here about ease of use and quality of contruction, but I do have some tips for its use. Here are my top 5:
First, my family and I found we didn't like plain "undoctored" soymilk, at all. You'll find that there are plenty of recipes on the internet for making soymilk that approximates what you buy in the store. We add 2T uncooked oatmeal to the soybeans in the machine before cooking. After cooking, we add 2 T sugar, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1 T vanilla to the finished product. Very tasty!
The end product still won't taste exactly like the brand of soymilk that you're currently drinking, but give it a couple of weeks and it'll probably become your new favorite. If you're like us, you may remember that it took you a while to get used to soymilk when you switched from dairy. Same thing here.
Second, we filter the cooked soymilk/oats through a piece of cheesecloth rubber-banded to the top of the unit, before adding flavorings. If you don't, you end up with with a fine, somewhat grainy sediment (okara) when you get to the bottom of the batch. You can get cheesecloth in a lot of grocery stores and kitchen shops. My machine came with cheesecloth for use in making tofu, but I found it so tightly woven that it tried my patience waiting for the soymilk to drain. Regular cheesecloth does the trick just fine. I rinse the cheesecloth and throw it into the laundry so it can be re-used.
Third, make sure to give filter a good scrub after each use (I throw it in the dishwasher afterward for good measure). The mesh is very fine, so it's easy for it to get gummed up, and easy not to notice.
Four, use a nice big piece of cheesecloth in a nice big colander to filter out the "whey" when you make tofu. As mentioned above, the included cheesecloth is too finely woven and too small to be of use.
Five, once you run out of the little packages of tofu "coagulant" that come with the machine, you can use 1 tsp of Epson salt as a fine alternative. Epson salt is a naturally occuring mineral salt (magnesium sulfate). It's perfectly safe to consume epson salt -- it's sold for internal use as a, ahem, laxitive. Happily, the small amount that remains in the finished tofu is too small to have this effect!
 RICE MILK? Try Soyquick model 930P October 17, 2007

PLEASE SEE MY UPDATED REVIEW BELOW
I decided to purchase this soymilk maker for rice milk, despite a previous customer review about the rice milk boiling over. Mine didn't boil over, but the milk that resulted was so awful I had to throw it out. The mess was UNBELIEVABLE - I spent longer to clean up the machine than the machine took to make the milk. It was a sticky, gooey disaster. I managed to clean up the machine thoroughly and packaged it right back up. The customer service was great, though.
22 August 2008
The Soyquick company called me last week to let me know that a newer version of the Soyquick machine has just come out. It is model 930P. I was VERY impressed with the difference! The rice milk came out great with a smooth, even consistency. Rather than having the machine run the liquid through the metal strainer, I did that part myself with the strainer that is provided. The machine parts are SO much easier to clean up- took me less than a minute, nothing like the last machine. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THE NEWER MODEL(SQ 930P) FOR RICE MILK and thanks to Kitchen's Best! Terrific customer service!
P.S. This machine will not make rice milk that tastes or looks like Rice Dream, so don't expect that.
Not so good for rice milk August 2, 2007

I don't drink soy milk, I'm allergic to soy but I bought this unit to make rice milk. I followed the directions to the letter and the thing bubbled over and scolded the milk. I thought maybe I did something wrong and tried again, and again. I tried three times total and was not able to make rice milk comparable to Rice Dream - which was my goal, nor unscolded milk. If you're after a soy milk maker, this is probably a great unit, but it doesn't do so great if you want rice milk.
Kitchen's Best are a good company to buy from, they used to offer a great money back guarantee, not sure if they still do, so if you're after rice milk, maybe you could try it and if it doesn't work well, I think you would have no trouble returning it. It's possible my unit was just a lemon.
