oh yikes i was hoping they’d give us a bigger container of it. i knew we were getting the barista oatly but i buy it for coffee at home and it goes quick. that’s gonna be annoying

rio8envy7 35 points 2y ago

You can probably fit more than 3 in a fridge though. They also could be giving us small bottles to see how it sells. The almond milk used to be in small containers too.

AvoFromCado 18 points 2y ago

We fit 5 in a fridge at one time ☺️

Silly_Goose2 6 points 2y ago

We now do twelve (three rows of four), especially with the advertising for the Honey Oat Latte. It's a little ridiculous how we can only get two grandes out of one carton.

AvoFromCado 1 points 2y ago

Yeah the tiny containers are ridiculous. I guess it doesn’t really bother our store bc we don’t go through that much

rio8envy7 2 points 2y ago

That’s not too bad.

oftbkk 15 points 2y ago

i know the barista oatly is sold in stores but only in this size so i’m sure it won’t size up but maybe

rio8envy7 9 points 2y ago

It’s also not Starbucks brand like the other alternative milks are so you could be right.

steelclaymore13 1 points 2y ago

4 to a fridge, 5 if you're feeling frisky. It's super annoying though, sorry

Elliotisnotokay 1 points 2y ago

In my region we get bigger ones. Also a different brand tho

rio8envy7 25 points 2y ago

Ngl thought the container would be bigger.

drowninginristretto 8 points 2y ago

Nope I think there’s 12 in a case instead of 8... so they’re small

rio8envy7 3 points 2y ago

Oof. Do you go through them quickly? Any suggestions for keeping up with stock for orders? We’re getting it in March and I’m just trying to think ahead so we don’t run into any issues.

drowninginristretto 2 points 2y ago

You can fit 4-5 in each fridge (in a row) and just have a couple on the floor in the backups area.

rio8envy7 2 points 2y ago

Thank you.

The barista blend containers are this size, and it's roughly a trenta (for markouts) and will not curdle when introduced to heat like the regular one. It's best with Chai, and in other Iced drinks and takes on flavors really well.

How's the texture of it? Every oatmilk I've tried has had an AWFUL texture, been thick and almost soupy a little slimy almost and just 😖 IDK how to describe it tbh lol

patrickm421 [OP] 17 points 2y ago

Texture is really good, always preferred Oatly bc it has a very similar texture to milk. Not nearly as thick as a lot of other oat milks.

plushiequeenaspen 2 points 2y ago

Sounds like it might be worth a try :)

greyplains 6 points 2y ago

As with all alternative milks, a robust shake to agitate everything because of natural separation is needed. But the oatly milk once steamed is soooo silky.

gabbysafari 10 points 2y ago

i so wish they were the same size as the other nondairy milks. they only last like 2-3 venti drinks, max. the plus side is that they have the screw off lif instead of the stupid lids the other nondairys have!

wingedhunter1 2 points 2y ago

recently we had a whole box of almond milks and the lids would come completely off it was infuriating

chinfox 4 points 2y ago

so close.... i can almost taste it....

ABVDRICEBV 3 points 2y ago

I’m so excited for you! It’s a game changer because it’s flavor profile is much more appealing/subtle than the other alternatives.

asilva0622 3 points 2y ago

Just got ours in central Florida last night.

MahNellie 2 points 2y ago

Still waiting to get ours, it was chaos when it hit on the mobile app and we didn’t have it.

iStealSharpies 2 points 2y ago

Omg so SMOL

HollowRibcage 2 points 2y ago

We got ours today too!

15002065123 2 points 2y ago

We gotta wait until March, I’m not ready.

drewlamm 2 points 2y ago

we’re still waiting on getting oat milk in houston, but honestly i’m very excited to work with it

amolnar0154 1 points 2y ago

yes we just got it in detroit area i’m so excited

BlueMuffins92 1 points 2y ago

Has it taken over your milk alternatives yet?! I have a feeling we’re guna be selling mostly oatmilk after launch!

patrickm421 [OP] 1 points 2y ago

I think it will eventually, people are slowly finding out since we haven't really been advertising for it yet!

dpickles99 1 points 2y ago

Is this rolling out to all locations?

Jakob340 1 points 2y ago

We also just got oat milk today in Fort Worth 😍

wingedhunter1 1 points 2y ago

they are sitting patiently in BOH here in va, we roll it out next month yeye

rlaksjvich 1 points 2y ago

Very excited to see it in the stock room!!!!!

hhtptai 1 points 2y ago

At least if this stuff runs out someone can run to the grocery store and get more.

Still suffering from Boston

3_point_turn 1 points 2y ago

I’m in Louisville and apparently we’re getting some soon as well! I’m kind of excited cause I’ve never tried it before.

Meinax151 1 points 2y ago

tinydesthique 1 points 2y ago

fingerwagnah 1 points 2y ago

It’s in Nashville finally? Omg! I’m so happy! 😍😍

TheFatBat1978 1 points 2y ago

Carbs in the oaty milk?

the1noir 1 points 2y ago

16gm for a cup I think

Baristababie97 0 points 2y ago

Maybe we can combine a couple of them into a sweet cream pitcher for peak

blueeeeeberry 5 points 2y ago

I work in LA county (so clearly we get lots of people asking for oat and other alt milks) and it’s never an issue with the container they are in :) you shouldn’t need to do the pitcher idea but that’s totally up to you and your store!

the1noir 2 points 2y ago

That’s.. not a bad idea. Gonna bring this up w/ my sm
