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 use Oatly at home. The barista version makes better foam, but I purchase the full fat (dark blue carton) Oatly because it’s cheaper and the foam is 90% as good.

    Oat milk has been our favorite hands down. We keep Oatly Barista stocked for lattes, its taste and texture are spot on. Even does latte art pretty well, though mine often looks more like abstract art…

    We use Oat milk at home (partner is dairy free), and both Oatly Barista and Califia Barista oat milks and they’re fantastic. We steam at ~130*C. It frothes well, tastes good, has some body to it. Highly recommend

    Oatmilk is easily the best alternative imo. It can be frothed pretty well too.
