GREAT! | |
| This yogurt maker got its precious place in my kitchen. I highly recommend it anyone who wants to eat natural and perfect yogurt. Well done! | |
Foolproof yogurt for practically nothing | |
| I finally gave up on my ancient set of yogurt jars when I broke too many of them. They weren't the greatest, and they didn't give foolproof results, but they DID give me fresh and inexpensive yogurt. Most of the time.
I was a little leery of the new Salton system because it didn't use the little cups, but I figured I could just put the finished yogurt in some recycled marg containers. I was right; the one-quart system works smoothly and effortlessly. You have yogurt in the space of a day with a minimum expenditure of time and energy, and the yogurt is simply superb. You heat up a quart of milk to the scalding point, then cool it back down to 110. you add some yogurt starter and put it into the heater for five hours. The system essentially consists of a heater jacket and a plastic bucket that keeps the working yogurt at the right heat, until you cool it and put it in the fridge. The heater is beautifully designed to be simple and efficient. It is easy to wash and looks like it will last forever. The system comes with very complete and totally clear instructions that tell you what NOT to do as well as what TO do. I cannot imagine how anything could be easier than this process! And you gotta love the price. You should definitely buy a spot thermometer for monitoring the running-in temperatures, but you will have everything else you need in your kitchen already. | |
This is the yogurt maker to own. | |
| My yogart maker came in a few days ago and already on my second batch. Took the advice of others and did the organic whole milk with the yougart starter from the health food store, processed it for at least 7 hours. I then chilled it overnight. It was perfect, nice and then I strained some and I like the thicker, creamier yogart. It was so good. I am thrilled I bought this little machine and you can't get any easier than this. |
