General Yogurt Preparation

This yogurt maker can produce one large batch or individual servings. The process involves heating milk, cooling it, adding a starter culture, and then incubating it in the yogurt maker.

  1. Heat the Milk: Pour the desired amount of milk (whole, reduced-fat, skim, soy, or almond milk) into a saucepan. Heat the milk slowly to 180°F (82°C). Stir frequently to prevent scorching. This step helps to denature the milk proteins, resulting in a thicker yogurt.
  2. Cool the Milk: Remove the milk from heat and allow it to cool to 105°F–115°F (40°C–46°C). This temperature range is ideal for the yogurt culture to thrive. You can speed up cooling by placing the saucepan in an ice bath.
  3. Add Starter Culture: Once the milk has cooled, add your yogurt starter culture. This can be a few tablespoons of plain, unflavored yogurt with live active cultures, or a commercial yogurt starter packet. Whisk thoroughly to ensure the starter is evenly distributed.
  4. Fill Containers:
    • For individual servings: Pour the milk mixture into the four 7oz. glass jars. Secure the lids.
    • For a large batch: Pour the milk mixture into the 1 Qt. plastic container. Secure the lid.
  5. Inkubasi: Place the filled jars or the large container into the yogurt maker base. Cover with the clear lid. Plug in the unit and turn the On/Off switch to "On".
