Know before you buy
No, the device is designed for simplicity and does not have a display or manual temperature controls. It maintains a consistent fermentation environment automatically once you start the cycle.
Yes, the stainless steel construction is durable and easy to clean. You can wash the container in the dishwasher, though hand washing is recommended to maintain the finish over time.
You can certainly use this machine to make the base yogurt. To achieve a thicker, Greek-style consistency, you will need to strain the finished yogurt using a cheesecloth or a fine-mesh strainer after the fermentation process is complete.
Since the unit lacks a digital timer, you will need to track the fermentation time manually using a kitchen timer or clock. Most yogurt recipes require between 8 to 12 hours depending on your preferred tanginess.
No, the yogurt maker does not include starter cultures or ingredients. You will need to provide your own milk and a starter, such as a small amount of store-bought plain yogurt or a freeze-dried starter culture.
