Yogurt Maker Automatic Digital Yoghurt Maker Machine with 8 Glass Greek Jars 48 Ozs (6Oz Each Jar) LCD Display with Constant Temperature Control Stainless Steel Design for Home Use

Made yogurt for the first time and the flavor and texture are perfect. The good, so simple and quick. The bad, terrible directions and user manual. Looked online, no luck. Finally after 20 minutes of confusion and somewhat figured out how set the temperature and time. Did the basics: In a measuring bowl pour 1 litre of cold milk, then add 50 ml of yogurt, I used iogo vanilla flavor, and mix together. Pour the mixture in the bottles evenly. I added a bit more milk to the bottles as there was still room in the bottles. Put the filled bottles, minus the caps, in the yogurt maker basin. I poured warm water to 3/4 deep in the yogurt maker basin, turned the yogurt maker on setting the temperature to the default 108 but adjusted the time to 12 hours, and started it. I let it run overnight to be ready in the morning. Once done I added frozen fruit, a teaspoon worth, to the yogurt, put on the caps and put the bottles in the fridge for an hour. Yum yum so good. That is all I did. I looked at many recipes on YouTube and nearly all called for heating the milk then cooling it before putting it in the bottles and turning on the yogurt maker. Never did that as the commercial milk is pasteurized anyway. Used homogenized 3.25% milk. No sugar added. So the bad, the directions being bad as they are. No need for warm milk. Follow the basic recipe I mentioned above. Now the directions to use the machine: 1. Plug in, just --- on the screen and the Temp and Time lights are unlit 2. Press Function button, Temp light flashing green, Time light solid green (default 108 should pop up on the display) if you want to change the temperature this is when you adjust the temperature by hitting the + and - buttons and the temperature on the display will go up or down by one degree. Once done press the Start/cancel button and this will cause the Temp light to stay solid green and the Time light to be a flashing green. The is when you set the time (the default is 8 being for 8 hours) my recipe I set it to 12 for 12 hours. Once done press the Start/cancel button. The Temp and Time lights should be solid red. The yogurt maker is running and will display the time you set and will count down at the time progresses. The yogurt maker will beep, the Temp and Time lights will turn green, and the display will be 0. All done. Note: The yogurt maker is a limited timed start so you only have about 5 seconds to change the timer, otherwise if you are not fast enough the Temp and Time lights will both turn solid red and the yogurt maker automatically starts. Took me a while to figure that one out. It is not obvious that the yogurt maker is working. I believe when the Time and Temp lights are red that means the yogurt maker is running. Otherwise look at the display in an hour and the displayed time should go down by 1 (means and hour has passed since you started. The display counts down when the yogurt maker is running. Good luck and I hope this helps. Worked for me. Cheers Paul

This yogurt maker does the job and does it well. I’ve now made 2 batches and both came out as good as the ones I did with my sous vide. One thing I appreciate are the serving size cups. They are the right size, easy to use, and easy to wash. I wish it was simple to order another set of 8, but it isn’t. So I had to search around to buy like 30. Now I can make a batch of yogurt, put it in the fridge, and get another set going, so we are never out. Temperature is fairly easily controlled. I can set it at 100° for L Reuteri and 106° for SIBO/SIFO. And any other temp that your yogurt recipe my call for. The only thing that is annoying is how you gotta move fast to get temp and time set before the lights turn red. I wanna tell the controls to “chill out, I’m getting there.” If you don’t enter the time fast enough the lights go red and the maker won’t start. My first attempt at yogurt was incredibly frustrating until I got the hang of ENTER IT NOW! FASTER! Tip: pour warm water around the jars (with lids on) to ensure consistent temp around the yogurt while cooking. So yeah, I’d recommend this one, for sure. The end product is very good.

funciona bien, puede ser que no te salga a la primera pero es cuestión de encontrar el punto exacto de temperatura y tiempo y claro de los ingredientes adecuados.

I wasn't sure how my first attempt would turn out, but I was pleasantly surprised. I love that I can set both the temperature and the timer to exactly what I needed. For those interested, I made a batch of 24-hours fermentation yogurt. I brought 4 cups of milk to 185F for 10 minutes, then I let it cool down to 100F. Once it reached 100F, I added the powder from one probiotics capsule, whisked it in, then poured into the jars. I placed the jars in the device, added 2 cups of warm water (around 95F), then I set the temperature to 100F and the timer to 24h. After 24h, it turned off, and I had my batches of yogurt. Very happy with the result. If you are using a probiotics capsule like I did, make sure that it contains one of these strains, so it will actually make set yogurt instead of a probiotic drink: Lactobacillus bulgaricus, Streprococcus thermophilus, Bifidobacterium lactis or Lactobacillus acidophilus

Quede muy satisfecha, ya viene programado por default, 107F por 8hrs, y quedan perfectos! salen muy cremosos tipo Griego, y lo mejor es poner agua en el recipiente, lo he usado cada 8 dias, lo recomiendo ampliamente para aquellos que como yo consumen mucho yogurt
