I’m going to go against the trend here and say soy. We get one here called happy happy soy boy and it’s excellent for milk coffee.

I personally prefer the taste of soy in coffee to oat, I find oat slightly too thin.

Almond is the worst, I believe there’s a technical explanation for this, something about the oils, but I can’t recall the details.

Anyway I recommend finding a high quality soy and giving that a go.

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…

I use the Califia Farms barista oat milk and it’s been my favorite so far. It has a thicker texture and foams nicely. No weird after taste to me.

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

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

I personally use lactose free milk (fairlife) or oat milk. Flavor wise, Oat milk takes a bit to get used to but then you realize how creamy it is, even more so than regular milk.

Oatly barista is the best I’ve tried but it’s just nothing like using whole milk. I suppose it depends on the coffee as well, some just don’t go well with oat flavors and others may be better that way

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.
