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.

This is the most simple and wonderful yogurt maker I have ever owned. I got the top tier extender and use one cup canning / jelly jars in the bottom and the jars that came with the machine in the top. I wrap a bath mat over the machine so there is uniform heat in top and bottom and don't have to switch tiers as some recommend. If you are considering buying this product I encourage you to do so without any hesitation. AND there is no need for the timer (or even the "hour marker" that comes on the machine). Buy the "cheaper" "stripped" model without the timer. One other thing I found handy is I put a wet washcloth on the bottom before I put the jelly jars in and it seems to disperse the heat more evenly. I lay it across the round of the bottom and the four corners stick out a bit. PLEASE NOTE: the extender will NOT sit exactly sealed when you use the jelly jars on the bottom as they are a bit too tall. But using the bath mat makes a wonderful "blanket" and the slight gap makes NO difference in the yogurt. A further note - I wanted to make greek yogurt and read about all the "straining" and other effort necessary and was so discouraged. But I simply use greek yogurt culture for my starter and it makes VERY THICK yogurt without the fuss. My EASY recipe is - I do NOT heat the milk etc. I take room temp milk (from our cow), put 1/2 cup yogurt from the store or yogurt from one of the 6 oz jars that comes with the machine - in the bottom of a glass pyrex one quart pouring measuring pitcher, whisk in a little milk to disperse the yogurt, then add three cups of milk and whisk again. I then pour it into jars and place them into the machine and repeat until I've filled as many jars as I want to. I would give this gift to ANYONE who has a cow (or goat). I cannot say how it works with store bought milk as I have never used it. I do know friends who add a little dry milk powder to their milk to make it thicker - but the greek culture works great instead for me. Many people also make milk from almonds and coconuts and have success with yogurt that way - so maybe the storebought almond milk and coconut milk in the milk cartons would be great for yogurt too as an alternative to dairy. I hope this review encourages people to try this product and EAT LOTS OF YOGURT with full control of what goes into their bodies. This is a LOVELY, SIMPLE and well made machine. And the price is absolutely WONDERFUL. Another bonus - it has a TINY footprint and all the parts nest (upside down etc) very nicely so it fits easily in my cabinet and doesn't take up much space on my counter when in use. While it is bigger than my toaster, it fits where a toaster fits on a small counter. Another tip - I put the cardboard case that the jelly jars came in in my cabinet and as they are emptied they get put in there until refilled. I make sure that I eat the yogurt jars that came with the machine last as they are 6 oz vs the 8 oz jelly jars and save enough to make the number of jars I want. I only buy culture about once every three months - a quart of plain greek. I buy new when the culture gets a bit runny. I absolutely LOVE this little machine.

I recieved this bt ths is nt working

El producto es muy bueno, solo me gustaría saber dónde puedo conseguir más frascos cuando se rompe uno.

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.

Produto excelente. O iogurte sai firme e com boa textura. Vale o investimento
