Euro Cuisine YM80 Electric Yogurt Maker Machine- Promote Gut Health with Probiotic Rich Homemade Yogurt -Home Yogurt Incubator with Glass Jars, White

First the problem. The timer did not, does not work! It didn't move! I set it for twelve hours and it never worked. Now when the time was up, (I have clocks), I checked it. It was perfect. Firm, creamy and delicious. As good or better than any yogurt I've bought in the stores and I've been eating yogurt for over seventy years. I've also owned and used a very expensive yogurt maker before. This is the simplest and the best. I am very pleased. Definitely recommend this. I read all of the reviews and all of the comments and directions. Then putting it all together I made the first batch. I used the seven cup Pyrex bowl with a cover that so many suggested. So, here's the formula: heat 6 jars of cold whole milk in a 7-cup Pyrex bowl in the microwave for no more than 1 minute. Take it out of the microwave (test to be sure it's only very lukewarm, add ½ cup powdered milk, and 1/2 cup of the very best unflavored Greek yogurt I could buy, after that it's a jar that you have saved from the last batch). Put it in the machine on two layers of folded paper towels. Gently blend, place the cover on. I placed a small folded dish towel on top of the machine. Turn the machine on for 13 hours. Check it after 12 hours by slightly tipping the bowl to see if it is thick. If you think you need an hour more, OK, but no more than that. Put the snap cover on the pyrex bowel and put it in the fridge. (Before you eat any of it, be sure to fill one of the jars to use as a starter for the next time.) This was very thick, there was no liquid until I removed a bowl full. I ate it with honey and berries. Absolutely delicious. When I used it the next day I gently drained off any liquid in the bottom of the bowl. There was no need to strain. This could have been sliced to serve with berries for company. I'm updating my review. I have continued using this little yogurt maker and I am more pleased with the results every time I use it. It is extremely reliable. Producing the creamiest best flavored Greek yogurt you can imagine. I have recommended it to several friends. After seeing the machine and enjoying the Greek yogurt made in it they are impressed and one ordered one right away. Sometimes a product is as good or even better than advertised.

I bought this yogurt maker over a year ago, and it's still going strong. In terms of product durability, the only thing that has "broken" are the little rubber foot pads at the bottom have fallen off, but a dab of superglue fixed that quickly. I've been making batches of yogurt back-to-back in this baby, and I love how quick the setup is. I usually start a new batch late in the evening, so that it can incubate overnight and be done by the time I'm up in the morning. I take one little jar of yogurt from my last batch and scoop it into a pot, then use the emptied jar to measure out six more jarfuls of milk into the pot. Stir the pot well with a ladle, then ladle into all seven jars, stick the jars in the yogurt maker and put the big plastic cover on, set timer, press the red button and go. In the morning, I lift off the plastic cover (you'll need to be a little careful here, there will be lots of water condensed on the inside of the cover, and you don't want that dripping into your yogurt), cap all of the bottles with the provided lids, and stick them in the fridge to cool. Yogurt is done! The yogurt I get is never as thick as the store-bought kind that you can stand a spoon in, but I'm ok with that. My yogurt is a little viscous but still liquidy, kind of like cake batter. You'll need to play around with the incubation time to see how long you'll need to get the tartness and viscosity you want. For me (California Bay Area weather), if I use whole milk straight from the fridge, I incubate for 11 hours for a slightly tart, slightly viscous yogurt. You can go as low as 9 hours if you don't want it very tart but still viscous. For 2% milk (again straight from the fridge), 10 hours for a tart, viscous yogurt. I've tried 12 hours with 2% milk before, and it came out completely watery. So again, keep trying different times. If you want your yogurt thicker, you can try heating the milk first. Measure out six jarfuls of milk into a pot (don't put in the yogurt starter just yet), and heat it for half an hour. Don't boil it, you want just under simmering. Then cool the milk to room temperature, and warm the yogurt to room temperature. Once both are ready, scoop the yogurt starter into the milk, mix, and ladle into the jars, etc. The heating denatures the fat proteins and spreads them out into longer strands, so that your yogurt has the fat more evenly distributed for a more even network that binds better for thick yogurt. Higher fat content in the milk will make thick yogurt easier to get. Don't expect store-bought thickness if you don't plan to add gelatin, like they do. I've only made plain yogurt, since I'm not interested in sweetening mine, so please keep that in mind. My roommate likes stirring in spoonfuls of jam right before eating, though. I also never bother with pre-heating the milk (too much trouble, and I'm lazy). There are lips in the jars that are hard to clean out with a dish sponge, so I let the jars soak for about 15 minutes to get the extra yogurt to dissolve, then rinse them out and wash. The provided lids are definitely not leak-tight, but the jar opening is a standard size and I've found that lids from spaghetti sauce jars fit perfectly, and are much more leak-tight. Want more bottles than just 7? Like other reviewers have said, the larger baby food bottles are the perfect size. Also note that when the yogurt maker is done, the beep is very subdued. You can hear it if you're listening for it and you're not far away, and it beeps several times, but it's not loud enough or high-pitched enough to be attention-grabbing and bring you out of that game that you're getting really into. It's more of a reminder than an alarm, and it's about half as loud as my microwave's beep. Great product, and I highly recommend it if you're willing to play around with it a bit. The routine I've settled into is quick, easy, and requires very little cleanup. I'm very pleased with my yogurt maker!

I recieved this bt ths is nt working

Cocina una muy buena yogur, 12 horas es bueno para algo como un estilo yogur Griego. Me lo encanta.

Product arrived in excellent condition. The only thing I didn't realise, was that it won't work on the UK electrics. If it had worked with our electrical system it would have been just what I wanted.

This product doesn't work in Singapore voltage and it shouldn't even be listed here. Questions & Answers was misleading stating it would work, but it was a total failure when it came as it is designed for 110V. I tried to contact the seller with no success.

É de ótima qualidade. Única restrição: não tem manual em Português.
