* The water needs to be warm as this help the fats from the coconut, mix with the water. If you use cold water, the fat will stick to the sieve or nutmilk bag.
** Instead of throwing out the coconut pulp, you can dry it in the oven at 200C for around 30-45 minutes until it's dry and voilá, you have your own high-fiber shredded coconut that you can use in breads, cakes, smoothies, on top of your cereal, or in vegan steaks.
*** When the milk gets cold, the fat will seperate from the water and join together in the top of the container. This is normal and means the milk just needs a good shake. If shaking does not help, you can take the milk out of the fridge before you drink it and let it rest for a little until the solid part mealts. When you heat up the coconut milk the solid part quickly melts away.
