Question 1

I see multiple reviews saying that this didnt hold the temperature for the time needed...how do I know if the yogurt came out properly?

Accepted Answer

I saw the same reviews , so when I got my yogurt maker- almost a year ago- would go back about 3 hours after pouring milk in unit and refresh the warm water. Since the first few times I have stopped doing that. I think it’s really important to fill both stainless and glass containers with warm water (113 degrees) while you’re preparing yogurt mix, then dump all except the 1 cup that remains in stainless container. My yogurt has turned out perfectly every single time. The texture is perfect, so I don’t think that exact temperature is so necessary. I wonder if it’s not better to keep the unit closed and not be opening it and checking?

Question 2

How many ounces does it make?

Accepted Answer

Thanks for your question.  This Yogurt Maker can make up to 1 quart or 32 oz of yogurt in one batch.  If you would like to make small batches of yogurt you can half fill the jar and it will still work the same way.

Question 3

How many hours does it retain heat.  Can you let yogurt sit in it for 24 hours?

Accepted Answer

Great question. You could do a 24-hour ferment in this flask. You may want to pop some warm water around the jar at the 12-hour mark if you are trying for a longer ferment. I'm curious to learn more about a 24-hour yogurt ferment - what is the reason for the long ferment and what temperature are you trying to hold? We recommend an 8-hour ferment at around 104° - 113°F for the best quality yogurt. This is the temperature that gets the cultures working well to acidify and thicken the milk and stop any unwanted bacteria growing. If you ferment for a longer period at a lower temperature you could get a thin slimy yogurt and unwanted growth of yeasts and molds. If you ferment for a longer period at a higher temperature you could get a super sour yogurt with separation of solids and liquids as the culture runs out of food. See our book "How to Make Butter & Yogurt" for more info on dairy yogurt. If you're after tips and tricks on plant-based yogurts we have a new book coming out shortly we can send you a sample copy of.
