Description
The IAGREEA HB-B10KW1 is an automatic nut milk maker with a broader program list than most and, unusually for this class of appliance, a clearly published electrical specification. IAGREEA lists a 35 ounce capacity, eight one touch automatic programs, ten blades, digital touch control, a nonstick interior, an 11 minute self cleaning rinse cycle, a 12 hour delay start and an automatic heat preservation function. The machine weighs 3.36 pounds and runs at 120 volts, 60 Hz, drawing 800 watts.
A note on where it sits in this catalog: the product is listed under countertop blenders. It is a single purpose plant milk machine rather than a general blender, and it will not do the jobs a blender does. That is a categorization matter flagged here rather than a fault of the appliance.
The Eight Programs and What Heats
The program list is juice, soy milk, almond milk, milkshake, boil water, oat milk, rice paste and self clean. That is broader than most machines in this class, and the rice paste program in particular is unusual outside dedicated soy milk makers.
What matters more than the count is which programs heat. IAGREEA states that the automatic heat preservation function supports two hours of holding, and specifies exactly which programs support heating: Soy Milk, Boil Water, Rice Paste and Clean. By implication, the almond milk, oat milk, juice and milkshake programs do not heat.
That distinction is a food safety one, not a preference. Raw soybeans contain compounds that require thorough cooking, and soy milk that has not been properly heated is not safe to drink. A machine that publishes a heated soy program is stating it can do the job. The same logic runs the other way for almond milk, where heating changes the flavor and an unheated program is the correct approach.
Self Cleaning and the Nonstick Interior
The 11 minute self clean rinse cycle is the feature that separates a machine that gets used from one that ends up in a cupboard. Plant milk residue is starchy and sets hard, and IAGREEA’s advice in the listing is direct: add water immediately after pouring the drink out and run the cycle. Left to dry, the residue is a much harder job.
The nonstick interior supports the same aim. IAGREEA describes it as ultra durable and intended to leave no residue inside. Nonstick coatings on a heated appliance are worth understanding: they make cleaning far easier and they are damaged by abrasive scrubbing, which is presumably why a scrub sponge and a cleaning brush are both supplied rather than anything harsher.
Despite the self clean cycle, the listing also specifies hand wash only for the machine, so the cycle handles the interior and hand work handles everything else.
The Seasoning Lid and a Safety Note
A small lid on the top of the machine opens so seasonings or sweeteners can be added while a program runs. IAGREEA attaches a clear warning to it in the listing: do not use it during heated procedures, to avoid burns.
That warning deserves to be repeated rather than buried, because it is the kind of instruction that gets skipped. A program running at boiling temperature produces steam under the lid, and opening an aperture into it is a scald risk. The seasoning port is for the unheated programs.

- Published electrical rating of 120 volts at 60 Hz, 800 watts.
- Cleaning brush, measuring cup and scrub sponge included. 3.36 pounds.
Things To Consider
The published dimensions are incomplete. IAGREEA gives 5.9 inches wide by 10.24 inches high with no depth figure, so counter footprint cannot be worked out from the listing. The “Number of settings” field reads 1 on a machine with eight programs, and the “Capacity” field gives 1 liter while the title gives 35 ounces, which are the same figure expressed two ways.
Hand wash only, on a machine used every few days, is a routine rather than an occasional task, even with the self clean cycle handling the interior.
The rating average is 4.2 out of 5 across 74 ratings, which is the lowest of the plant milk makers in this catalog and on a small sample. The model was first listed in September 2024, so no long term reliability record exists.
At 800 watts this is a lower powered machine than the 950 watt units elsewhere in this catalog, which on a heated appliance affects how quickly it reaches temperature rather than blend quality.
Fresh plant milk keeps only a few days without the stabilizers commercial cartons carry, so a one liter batch and a shelf in the refrigerator is the working pattern rather than making a week’s supply at once.
This is a single purpose appliance. It will not replace a blender for smoothies, soups or ice. Anyone wanting one machine for everything should look at the countertop blender range, and buyers who want to skip straining altogether should compare the NAMA M1.
Who It Suits and Who Should Look Elsewhere
This suits a household that makes plant milk regularly and wants the widest program list at the lowest complexity, particularly one that makes soy milk or rice paste where the heated programs matter. The published voltage and wattage, the specific list of which programs heat, and the explicit burn warning make this one of the more honestly documented machines in a class that is usually vague, and the 11 minute self clean cycle addresses the main reason people abandon these appliances.
It is the wrong appliance for anyone wanting a general purpose machine, and the incomplete dimensions make counter planning harder than it should be. Buyers who want a glass vessel and published temperature figures should compare the Arcmira nut milk maker, and buyers who mainly want smoothies should be looking at a proper blender such as the Ninja BL610.
