Title - I’m using lactose free milk right now, but I’m wondering if there are any good milk-free alternatives? I tried using Silk’s barista almond milk, but it’s sour after being frothed?

Edit: I guess I’ll have to try some oat-based alternatives, maybe the problem is with the almond milk.

    I’ve tried a lot and always came back to oatly barista. Pea is by far the worst I’ve ever tried. Soy is ok, almond is meh. Cashew can be pretty good and creamy, but it’s expensive.

    Pea is the only I’ve just thrown out. I’ve tried multiple brands but they were all disgusting.

      I’ve had Ripple brand pea milk with drip coffee and it was okay, I can see how the taste might be off-putting for some people though. For espresso I will pretty much stick to oat milk (Oatly Barista, Califia Farms).

 pea milk? Yeah
 no thanks

      That’s about what I’ve found too, though I haven’t tried Cashew. Knowing how expensive those are without all the additional processing, I’m not surprised.
