I have used this yogurmet to make the bifidus yogurt (CBA) for about 2 months. I really like it. It has worked just fine and I make the largest capacity possible which is 2 quarts. Be sure to have a 3 quart double boiler in order to boil the milk without scorching it. I cooked the milk in a regular 3 quart sauce pan and the milk stuck to the bottom because it takes a while to heat that much milk slowly, yet it still stuck. I used a strainer to remove any browned particle before putting it into the yogourmet. It came out tasting just fine. But a double boiler would be much much better to heat the milk in. Need large size, at least 2 quart size to heat 1 quart of milk or a 3 quart size to heat 2 quarts of milk. It does take about 12 hours to make 2 quarts.
The only thing that a person might want to consider before deciding on what yogurt maker to buy is to decide if you want a glass container to see through while the yogurt is being made or not. This 2 quart size Yogourmet is not see through. So I have to guess and hope that the yogurt is thick enough before I open the lid to look at the yogurt.
Also, this sounds crazy, but when I first used the thermometer that comes with the Yogourmet I thought it was broken! so when I sent in the product registration I asked for a new thermometer and told them my problem. The Yogourmet people were very polite and told me to take the clear sticker off the face of the thermometer then I could read it!! It has one of those see through stickers that have a fake number on it and I wondered why it never changed to register the degree temp of the milk!! Oh crazy me! anyways I took that sticker off and voila' it works just fine.
One other thing I would like to mention is concerning the milk. I have used only dry milk and that is fine with me. I just bought some Organic Pastuerized milk and can't wait to try it. I even bought a yogourt recipe book and YUMMMMM>... I love to bake bread and use yogurt instead of milk in the recipes and it is yummy in hotcake (pancakes) too!
I think that maybe now I will want to invest in an extra 2 quart container in order to have more yogurt on hand. I go through it so fast. Too, a person does not have to buy a new box of yogurt starter for every batch of yogourt that is made. I save about 1/4 to 1/3 cup of yogurt when I get near the bottom and that is enough to start my new batch. Can't wait to try the yougurt cheese recipe!! it is easy too!!
Good Luck :>)
PS: the yogurt book I bought is called THE BOOK OF YOGURT by SONIA UVEZIAN. This is an older book with many ymmy recipes in it. I need this because I am a beginner in using yogurt to cook with.

Can't find any fault with it. The digital thermometer that comes with it works well for my bread making too. There are cheaper yogurt makers, but not for making one half gallon at a time! It includes cheese cloth, and two packages of starters too. Good product.
nothing like homemade May 31, 2008

If you eat alot of yogurt, homemade is the only kind you should be eating. This machine is so easy to use. The first time I used this machine the yogurt came out perfect. I make mine with soymilk. We have the option of adding any fresh fruit of the day and anything else we desire. The large capacity container is easier to store in the fridge than all those individual containers. Enjoy!
Happy with my purchase July 24, 2008

I was interested in making my own yogurt because I eat a lot of it and I enjoy "kitchen gadgets". I originally purchased the EuroCuisine 7 jar maker from Williams and Sonoma because I had a gift certificate. I quickly grew tired of fussing around with those little jars, especially since you are not supposed to put the tops in the dishwasher and I was having trouble getting even the jars themselves clean in the diswasher with the way they are shaped. I saw this one and purchased it based on the reviews, and the fact that you make a one big container. I have made yogurt at least 5 times using the recommended starter and have had no trouble at all. I like the texture and taste of the yogurt too (using the unflavored gelatine mixed in). I didn't use the thermometer that came with it, but instead one that I knew was calibrated accurately. Definitely recommend.
Watch out for the 1-qt boom August 22, 2008

We love our yogurt maker. I was too impatient to stick with using organic milk; it added a couple hours to my whole process, to heat it then cool it way down. So I've settled for using the UHT boxes, and they taste just as good, which surprised me. We've comforted ourselves knowing that even if we're not using organic, at least we're not adding any more plastic containers to the pile. Okay, the 1-Qt Boom. The only time I tried making a single quart instead of two, I was sitting out in the living room, minding my own business, when this BOOF sound came from the kitchen. The cat ran off. I had 70s flashbacks to my parent's old yogurt maker and some pressure cooker incidents I've heard about. I did not want to go into the kitchen. But after a few minutes I decided I had to do it, and when I did, it wasn't nearly as bad as I'd feared. Yogurt was NOT everywhere, but both lids had blown off, and water was splattered. I was afraid to put the lid back on tight, because the pressure seemed pretty heavy, so instead, I set the lid back on but didn't click it into place, then draped a clean dishtowel over it all. The yogurt came out fine, and I don't know what the problem was, but the subsequent double batches were normal. I'm kind of afraid to do a single batch again. We love the yogurt and maker, and I'm glad we bought it, but for those few moments, I was very afraid.
