Operating Instructions: Making Soymilk
This section details the process for making soymilk. The appliance supports both soaked and dry soybeans.
- Add Soybeans: Place the desired amount of soybeans (soaked or dry) into the stainless steel pitcher. Refer to the internal markings for recommended quantities.
- Add Water: Pour water into the pitcher up to the desired measurement line (e.g., 0.6L for full capacity). Ensure water level is between the MIN and MAX lines.
- Secure Lid: Place the lid securely onto the pitcher. The appliance will not operate if the lid is not properly seated.
- Select Program: On the digital touch control panel, press the "Select" button repeatedly until the indicator light for "Soymilk" (or "Aromatic Soymilk" depending on model variation) is illuminated. Other options include Grains, Dry/Soaked Beans, Rice Paste, Porridge, Nut Milk, Juice, Warming, Easy Wash, and Rapid Soymilk.
- Start Operation: Press the "Start" button. The appliance will begin the soymilk making process, which typically takes around 15-20 minutes. You may hear blending and heating sounds during this time.
- Completion: Once the process is complete, the appliance will emit a beeping sound and the indicator lights will blink.
- Strain (Optional but Recommended): For a smoother consistency, pour the freshly made soymilk through the included straining filter into the container. Use a spoon to gently press the pulp to extract all liquid. This step helps remove any lingering bean residue for a cleaner taste.
- Serve: Your fresh soymilk is now ready to serve. Enjoy it warm or chill it for a cold beverage.
