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. Přidání startovací kultury: 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. Inkubovat: 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".

  7. Incubation Time: The incubation time typically ranges from 10 to 12 hours, depending on the type of milk used and desired thickness. Longer incubation times generally result in a tangier and thicker yogurt.
  8. Chlad: Once incubation is complete, turn the switch to "Off" and unplug the unit. Remove the containers from the yogurt maker and refrigerate for at least 4 hours to chill and set completely.

Making Greek Yogurt

To make Greek yogurt, you will need to strain the regular yogurt to remove excess whey, resulting in a thicker, more protein-rich product.

  1. Prepare Yogurt: Follow the steps above to make regular yogurt using the large 1 Qt. plastic container. Ensure the yogurt is thoroughly chilled before straining.
  2. Assemble Strainer: Place the Greek yogurt strainer into the large plastic container. Ensure it is seated properly.

  6. Kmen: Place the lid on the large container and refrigerate. Allow the yogurt to strain for several hours, or overnight, depending on your desired thickness. The longer it strains, the thicker the Greek yogurt will be. The liquid whey will collect in the bottom of the container.
  7. Sloužit: Once strained to your preference, remove the strainer with the Greek yogurt. The strained yogurt is now ready to be served. The collected whey can be discarded or used in other recipes.
