Almond milk in coffee

Am a big milky coffee fan and a recent convert to almond milk. I really miss a good flask of coffee on a day out. Does anyone know whether almond milk will work in a flask? Does it go funny?

Can't stand it in coffee. I have switched to black. Took about a week to get used to it. Less hassle!! Better taste!0

It doesn't work for me in my coffee.
I switched to 2% milk in my coffee and have an ounce in each cup. Usually ends up being 4 Oz total per day and around 70 calories. It's worth it for me.0 -
Why, please tell me why would you put almond milk in a nice, good cup of coffee?
I like my coffee black with Splenda and I don"t like almond milk in anything.0 -
I don't like it in coffee or tea. It doesn't mix well and it doesn't taste right. Milk or cream for me. I only have two cups a day. If I have a third cup, it's black.0

I love almond milk and sou milk. Just not in coffee.0

I use cream and cream only in my coffee. The few extra calories and grams of fat are worth it to me. I like almond milk and coconut milk to drink or on my oatmeal or in smoothies, but not in my coffee or tea.0

Sorry just to be clear. It works for me in coffee. It was the almond milk in coffee in a flask I was curious about.... I'm guessing as it is clearly sonewhat of an aquired taste I'm probably going to need to experiment for myself....0

If you like the taste in your coffee, I don't see why putting it into a flask would make any difference. It's not like doing so is going to cause some chemical change in it.0

Almond milk is such a ridiculous waste in the first place.0

I put Almond Milk in my coffee daily with a dash of cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice and I love it.0

I'm a huge almond milk fan and use it in almost everything, but coffee is where I draw the line. That's my one place where I get a half and half indulgence (no sugar, can't stand it sweet).0

I love almond milk. I love coffee. I hate them together. I prefer the coffee black actually. If I'm putting protein powder in my coffee, then I like a little almond milk. Otherwise it's black or with cream and sugar.0

If you used a flask (I assume you're talking about some kind of uninsulated container) for your coffee when you put dairy milk in it without it going "funny," coffee with almond milk should certainly last as long if not longer without going "funny."0 -
I switched to almond milk when i was doing a cleans and never went back. I have gotten used to it and now it is all I use for everything I would use milk for.

I don't understand why almond milk would be different in a flask than in a cup. It keeps longer than milk.

Splenda doesn't affect the taste of my coffee but any kind of milk does. Did I satisfy your curiosity?0 -
I don't like almond milk in my coffee but have you ever tried an almond milk latte? Sooo good!!!0
-
I tried putting Almond milk in my coffee once, but didn't like the taste of it. I like my Coffee Mate better.0
-
Yes, but I prefer the taste of homemade almond milk to store bought in coffee.0
-
And here I thought I was weird because I can't stand almond milk in coffee. Good to know I'm not alone!
I do enjoy coconut milk in my coffee0 -
OP isn't asking for opinions lol, op was wondering if almond milk kept in a flask would spoil or go off. Sorry I can't answer that but maybe the ones in a box off the shelf would be better to test out?0

I've been lactose challenged and using almond milk for years, just not in coffee. I stick to half n half (no sweetener) and it's the one concession I make on my paleo plan, other than the very occasional slice of a really good cheese on a burger. To answer your question, almond milk generally keeps better than cow's milk, because it is made from nuts. It will go bad but not in the course of a day. When I was eating cereal, I used to carry a couple of cups of almond milk in a mason jar in my lunch bag and it was fine.
If you really need to use something in your coffee besides dairy, there are several good coconut cream coffee creamers available as well as numerous recipes online to make your own.
Good luck!0 -

You can also get almond meal/ almond flour out of the process. Its such a PITA to make home made, but I don't see why it would matter on an industrial scale.
Considering how popular almond milk is i'm surprised how hard it is to find almost flour.0 -

Once you open a box of shelf-stable milk or non-dairy substitute, you have to refrigerate it. The product inside the box doesn't have any special staying power after it has been opened.0 -

If it doesn't affect the taste of the coffee, what's the point of adding it?0 -
Vanilla almond milk goes really good with hazelnut flavored coffee. The two nutty flavors compIiment each other great. I switched to almond milk instead of creamer and sugar and fake sweeteners and its helped me save a lot of calories this way. I like the way it tastes. It shouldn't change in a flask.. i put my coffee concoction in a thermos daily and its tastes the same.0

Love almond and soy milk in my coffee!
Yes it will go bad if left un-refrigerated.
However, every single morning I add soy or almond creamer to my coffee at 6am and it sits in my car (not in the sun) and I drink it around 3pm and it's fine.0 -
