This is only for 2015! What about now? Price of bread is ridiculous.

We bought a $99 bread machine a few years ago, as the price of bread at the store climbed. It takes a minute to assemble the ingredients, then you just walk away. 3 hours later, you have bread that puts store bought to shame, and all for less than $1 per 2lb loaf.

We also started using a pasta maker, which is just as easy to use. Fresh pasta for pennies, instead of $3 a pack.

In addition, we started making out own almond milk too... using fresh almonds and water. Compared to unsweetened store bought, we're saving over $40 a month on almond milk alone.

I'm tired of these companies... all of them... overpricing their products. Make whatever you can; fix whatever you can; reuse and repurpose as much as you can!

How do you make your almond milk? There are a few gadgets, but I've also seen the cheese cloth method.

Also, good on you! Making stuff from scratch is better, healthier, and cheaper.

I use a blender and then run everything through a French press!

I don't have experience with an actually nut milk machine, but this method works for us.

Since we've always used unsweetened versions of nondairy milk, it's just water and almonds. Approx. 2tbls of almonds to a little over 1000ml of water.

Thanks! We go through a lot of vegan milk in our house.
