Gguduck Maker 1.7L

UPDATE: seller has reached out to me and resolved my issue This produce is pretty pricey for what it is but it does its job nicely so I liked it until the mesh got damaged within three months. Three months seriously? I reached out to seller with my concern and they just ignored my message. They saw it and decided to just ignore it. Bad product and absolutely bad customer service. Please stay away

I have a Bear Greeks yogurt strainer, and this is fake. There is no bear greeks logo, nor did it come in a bear greeks box. It came in the box presented in the picture. Upon opening it, there was a cat hair already inside of it. Buyers beware.

This isn't a yogurt maker--it's a GREEK yogurt maker. One of the reviewers didn't learn enough about yogurt making before ordering this device and left a review that is nonsensical. Making yogurt from milk is done separately first--then this product is used to separate the whey out from yogurt that is already made, resulting in a thicker consistency. You can choose how thick you want your yogurt to be by the amount of time you leave it in the strainer. In my case, I want every drop of whey gone because I'm allergic to that protein but not the protein in the solids. With this product I can make a thick yogurt-cheese (the texture of cream cheese) that I can eat without having a reaction. Yay! This device combines a typical yogurt strainer with a device for pressing cheese/tofu which makes it very unique on the market. I was planning to buy one of each but now I don't have to, which makes me really happy! A lot of thought was put into this design. It's done very well. Compared to how I was straining my homemade yogurt before--in a strainer over a 2-quart measuring jug--this is very compact. Having a plastic lid is also much better than just covering with plastic wrap. If you have lots of room in your fridge that may not be as much of an issue for you as it is for me. This product is expensive, but considering the quality and the features, I find it to be worth the cost.

This looks like it should be easy to use and easy to clean, with a decent storage capacity for its size. The design seems very straightforward and I'm looking forward to giving it a try.

I was so disappointed when i opened the box, it was obviously used one or someone used it and then returned it. It had no direction inside, no plastic cover, the box was worn out. I've been watching so many unboxing videos for this product so i know what it should look like when i see it. I kept it anyway because i really needed it but i wish i returned it. I even paid higher amount then the current price.

I was given this Bear Greeks Yogurt Maker for free in order to provide an unbiased review as part of Amazon's Vine program. This is a glorified strainer. I bought my milk and was ready to make some yogurt, then I read the instruction booklet. There it says I need to add "Bear Greek Yogurt Starter" to the milk. But there's none in the package. I looked on Amazon, and there's no such product. So, I researched further online and found out that making yogurt is as easy as putting milk and some yogurt into a mason jar. That would be the place to start, then maybe use this product to strain it. I hope this helps you.

The Greek yogurt strainer is perfect, it allows you to strain yogurt and have nice thick Greek style, perfect to use to spread on crackers or veggies. I made vegan yogurt and wow I have never had such thick results. I used Belle Bella vegan gluten free yogurt starter with Westsoy plain original soymilk where only soy milk is in the ingredient and made the yogurt in my Instant pot and let it sit for about 15 hours because I like it thicker. After the yogurt cooled in the refrigerator I added the yogurt to this container and wow totally blown away on how much whey come out and how thick it got. I got this to use for my nut based cheeses and just tried the yogurt on a whim, you have to strain nut based cheese in a nut milk bag or cheese cloth over a bowl and this makes it so much easier. I love it, I can also allow the cheese to ferment inside the container and go straight into the fridge. This keeps everything clean and sterilized, no yucky cheese cloth or bags to clean. It produces a thick cream cheese textured cheese. I will be recommending this product to all my vegan cheese making friends and i recommend highly as I love mine. It comes in the most adorable packaging too and is excellent quality.

I’m not a fan of this yogurt strainer. The spring part leaks everywhere, making a (albeit contained) mess. It also doesn’t not hold much yogurt at all for the price. Overall I think it’s overpriced and not effective.
