Alpro loses its appeal. Swiss federal court finds that the name THIS IS NOT M[*]LK is misleading. It can't say milk on a package even it says this is not milk.
Absurd and ridiculous, how desperate the dairy and meat industry are behaving.
I will keep calling it milk, assholes.

My first try with the new Alpro Not M*lk Barista.
I really love experimenting with milk alternatives and that one really isn't too shabby.
Oat-based, not as creamy as normal milk, but decent.
In addition with the (plant) milk I am also testing a new steam tip, so... it's not the best testing ground.It steamed nicely, texture is good, buuut not as micro foam-y as I can get with a cow's milk just yet.
But I think that's on me just as much as on the product. Milk alternatives still struggle a bit with the micro foam texture and it's a bit harder to get them right.Coffee: Espresso Intenso (Cafesito)
Dose: 18g
Yield: 44g
Topped with ~130ml of steamed "Not M*lk Barista"

SO, maybe it's just for my German followers, maybe Europe.
I have no idea if that brand ist available abroad.But --- I think that might finally be an Oat Milk that I can use and enjoy for my steamed "Milk"-based coffee drinks.
The Oat Mølk: Barista
I already tried a couple and I was not satisfied.
Oatly, Mylk, Alpro, a couple other supermarket brands, some fancy organic ones.They either did not steam very well, the foam was very unstable or I didn't get a creamy mouthfeel, despite the added fat to make it more akin to the fat content of cows milk.
The mouthfeel was my major problem with the "Mylk" from Rebel Kitchen, which got promoted by James Hoffmann.Now, I am fully aware that I am a beginner and not even scratching the territory that James is in.
But while I could get some nice foam with it, it wasn't very stable and I was missing the creamy mouthfeel that I want from a milk-based coffee drink.Then I tried the "Moelk" (or Mølk .. ich have no idea how to type that on my keyboard) from a Frankfurt based startup.
Clocking in at just under 2€ per liter. Which is not cheap, but well inside the normal range that I expect for a plant milk.This oat milk just recently popped up in a Test, performed by my favorite Espresso traders "Die Kaffeemacher:innen" on their channel ... in which Moelk won their test in terms of taste and mouthfeel, with a sizeable gap to 2nd place.
Overall it performed quite well, even if it wasn't the price-value champ.Tried it as a flat white and it worked reasonably well.
Yes, it was far from perfect, I probably should have extended the roll phase (which is common for steaming plant based milk), so I ended up with a bit more bubbles than I wanted to.
But the foam was stable in the cup (not so much in the pitcher, had to work fast), poured reasonably well for a very simple latte art and, most importantly, it had a great mouthfeel.
Creamy, "fatty", soft... it was pleasant.The taste was of course oat, but it was actually quite mild and pleasantly rounded. Not too much in the front.
For I'm really intrigued with that milk alternative and I will keep exploring, learning and testing.
Maybe this will be a milk alternative that I will continue to use in my milk-based coffee drinks. -
