Oatly barista edition.

They only split because the water is boiling. If you just wait a few mins before adding milk it won't split

Add milk first then coffee. This ensures the milk is warmed slower than if poured into coffee. Stirring at the same time can help. But I've had this happen as well, it's definitely a temperature issue.

I find it so weird that this sporadically happens. Same box, same coffee, same day, different results.

Try "barista-grade" oatmilks from Earth's own and oatbox

adding a tiny pinch of baking soda to coffee usually prevents coagulation of plant milks by raising the pH

this is what I do so I can use straight soy milk

Hello there, as far as I understand this'll happen due to the low fat content of the milk so if you find a barista edition, those have higher fat content and won't do this, they made them for cafes so they'd feel similar to half & half

I have only seen this happen if I forget to shake the carton before pouring. Never have issues like this with any oat milk otherwise.

Funny how many explanations, or straight up random brand names, appear here

• acid
• fat
• temperature
• stirring
• Oatly barista

Does anyone know what baristas use? It's none of the ones I've seen and tried mentioned in the comments. Whatever they use doesn't turn coffee into a brown soup either.

I use almond milk and it never does this

Keep a stirring stick in the cup to periodically stir the suspension. That usually works for my tea

The only brand I found that doesn't curdle your plant-based creamer in coffee is the Silk brand creamers, either the regular or oat, perfection.

Sproud Barista or orginal! Tastes quite a bit like regular milk. It's made with pea protein. Sometimes it's available at Wholefoods, but you can purchase it on Amazon as well

Silk soymilk I’ve found generally gives me good results.

Oat milk is a scam. Soy milk is the only milk alternative being and doing exactly what it says and it's ass in coffee. The rest are seriously problematic for a variety of reasons, the two big ones for me being oat milk which processes through the human body as pure sugar, and almond milk which isn't the miracle health product it's been sold as, as well as being extremely detrimental to our environment to grow for mass production. Probably the worst thing you can do with almonds to make things worse for the environment is turn them into liquid, cause as anyone who's ever made Juice knows: it takes more input material than you get out by a long shot. Now imagine juicing tiny little almonds. Anyway, you've all been warned!

I thought it was a pancake stuck in your cup.

Trader Joe's have a great brown sugar oat milk that I like the best. I highly recommend it and it doesn't split

Is it chunky or sandy or is it just the oils and solids separating a bit? What happens if you stir it up?

I use Planet Oat and haven’t really had this issue, I only notice it if my coffee has been sitting too long. I used to use the Aldi store brand before that and that had a similar issue to what you’re seeing.
