Making oat milk

So I made oat milk. Here's the link to the recipe I used: http://ohsheglows.com/2013/01/10/homemade-oat-milk-easy-fast-cheap/

I made a few changes. I soaked the oats overnight and all I added to the oat milk was a pinch of salt and a tablespoon of maple syrup. It worked out pretty well! I think it tastes good and Cody likes it, but it's a little gritty for him and it does have a bit of a grassy taste. I'm going to try this again using cooked oats and cheesecloth to strain.

Below are some pictures of the process including one of Cody watching the blender. He loves the blender!

As for the leftover oats, I am going to put them in the food processor to further pulverize them to use in bread or muffins. I also saw someone mention the idea of making crackers which sounds yummy.

Rice milk, oat milk, hemp milk

I am going to attempt to make oat milk. I saw a great recipe online and it looks pretty easy.

Check it out at Oh She Glows:

I have never really been happy with rice milk as the dairy replacement option for Cody. And he won't drink it. I heard about hemp milk, so I decided to try that. When I was at the store I saw oat milk, so I bought some of that also. I gave some to Cody and he likes it! I've been mixing it with the hypoallergenic formula he still has to drink and I hope to transition away from the formula completely.

Has anyone tried oat and/or hemp milk and what are your thoughts?
