Delicious Yogurt February 2, 2005 mrsjpvan2 (San Francisco Bay Area) 194 out of 195 found this review helpful
Originally I ordered the Girmi yogurt maker but received the Euro Cuisine one instead. I called the company to see if it had been sent by mistake but was told that the Girmi yogurt machine does not have an indicator to let you know it's on - a real advantage. I kept the Euro Cuisine and love it! It made delicous yogurt on my first try.
The company representative spoke with me at length about making yogurt in this machine. You don't have to warm the milk if it's pasturized but it should be at room temperature along with the starter.
I warmed the milk anyway, and made sure the starter was at room temperature and then mixed the milk and the starter in a pitcher. It's easier to pour that way. I made 3 different kinds at once. Apricot, berry and vanilla. All were good. I did add a little sugar to the vanilla yogurt.
I would buy this machine again.
Fantastic Yogurt Maker !!! January 27, 2005 Albert Tor (NY,NY) 131 out of 134 found this review helpful
I must say this is the best yogurt maker I have ever used in my life,It is such a fun and easy experience using this machine. The best aspect of the machine is that the jars are glass and NOT plastic. I recommend every one to buy one, I have allready bought five others for gifts. I love it!
Perfect Yogurt EVERY TIME!!! October 24, 2005 Mom of 4 (South East, Texas) 45 out of 45 found this review helpful
This is one of my favorite purchases I have made lately. I use RAW goat's milk and it turns out the perfect consistency every time!!
After reading reviews on the Euro Cuisine Yogurt Maker, I was a little confused on the timer. Actually, there is not a timer, but a reminder. You place the lid on top of the yogurt maker and match up the line with the appropriate number. For example, if you are making yogurt at 10:00 am, you would turn the lid to line up with the 4 to remind you the yogurt is ready at 4:00 pm or whatever time you want to remind yourself. No bells or whistles go off. It is kind of like a note to yourself, "Remember, I am done at 4:00 pm." I have left mine in as little as 6 hours and as much as 12. It is still perfect, every time!!
I have a large family and we eat yogurt a couple times a day. If you, also, have a large family, you might consider purchasing the extra jars. The jars are the perfect storage container for your yogurt and it doesn't make much sense to scrape out the yogurt and transfer to another container to be able to re-use the jars for your next batch. Having extra jars on hand is the perfect solution if you plan on making lots of creamy, yummy yogurt, regularly.
Best of the 3 yogurt makers I've owned June 14, 2007 City Girl 43 out of 44 found this review helpful
First batch in my new machine was a success! My two mistakes didn't alter the outcome: 1) I boiled the milk longer and hotter than the instructions advised, and 2) Let it cool 7 degrees below the 95 deg. recommendation. At that point I was concerned that I might have ruined it. After it cooled I strained the milk because I didn't stir it while it was boiling. Then I slowly poured almost half of it into a smaller bowl that contained 3/4 cup of the starter yogurt (Mountain High nonfat plain), whisking to mix thoroughly. Then poured that back into the larger container of remaining milk and whisked to blend. Instead of using the 6-oz. jars, I poured the mixture into a 1 1/2 qt. glass Pyrex bowl which fit perfectly in the unit. Heated it for 11 hours. Removed the unit's plastic lid and blotted the condensation from the top of the yogurt. To my happy surprise the yogurt was firm! I don't need the 6-oz. jars because large containers of yogurt better serve my purpose. This machine was priced right, and the shipment arrived sooner than expected. I liked the idea of being able to return it to Target if I had not been satisfied with it.
amazing and simple September 30, 2005 Yvonne Ling (Berkeley, CA) 33 out of 33 found this review helpful
I love my new yogurt maker! I haven't had a problem with runny yogurt like some reviewers have, but it may be because I used 4 tbsp. of powdered milk and I let it incubate a little bit longer than instructed (on accident). The timer function is not an actual timer but it lets you mark the time when the yogurt will be ready so you don't have to walk around all day saying to yourself "yogurt at 6:00, yogurt at 6:00." It's simple and I've had spectacular results so far. I've also found that using Brown Cow plain yogurt as a starter yields a milder yogurt which is my preference. It's great for people that are lactose intolerant because for some reason, turning milk into yogurt makes it easier to digest. It's a great way to get in my 3 servings of dairy a day!
