"Works really well" star star star star star Been using this for more than a year, once or twice a week, and I find it works really well. However,it would be nice if there was some way of storing the power cable - such as hooks on the back or a ridge on the base you could wrap the cable around.
"Question about Greek Yoghurt" star star star star star_border I really like this product and find it easy to use. When making greek style yoghurt however, I seem to end up with very little yoghurt and lots of whey. The consistency is like a shop bought Greek style, not as thick as a branded type and so I wouldn’t want to add any of the whey back into the yoghurt. Any ideas where I might be going wrong? Thanks. support_agent A note from the team Thank you for your review. We're pleased you find this yoghurt maker easy to use. When making cheese or Greek style yoghurt you don't add any of the whey back into the yoghurt. You can place it in a freezer for 6-10 hours for a thicker taste.
"Poor temperature control" star star_border star_border star_border star_border I wanted to make yogurt from bacteria of different optimum temperatures. I thought that this would be suitable. That was 4yrs ago. Sometimes I was successful. Usually, not. I assumed that the fault was mine. That is until I tried using a chem lab water bath that held temperature to within a degree. I was successful every time. So, I measured the temperature of the fermenter. No matter what my starting temperature, it just kept going up until it got to 59' over a period of 5hrs. So, the outcome depended on when I took it out. I dont mind wasting £30 but I do resent wasting 4yrs of my life. support_agent A note from the team Thank you for your review. We're sorry to hear this yoghurt maker hasn't worked well for your usage needs. It does make a variety of yoghurts with the recipes included in the booklet - we've sent you an email to help further.
"A brilliant piece of kitchen kit!" star star star star star Straightforward to use, easy to store, and makes really delicious yoghurt/Greek yogurt/cream cheese, and the yoghurts make a very good substitute for cream. Grandchildren loved helping with the process, and gobbled up the result. Definitely a winner, and at a good price.
"Good but could be brilliant" star star star star_border star_border Excellent basic yogurt maker however size and shape of containers means they don't fit in most standard under counter fridges unless they have a split shelf. The containers are also too large for the milk section of the door which would be logical place for them really. I found amount of starter is too much and 2 tablespoons is plenty processed over 12 hrs in room temperature filtered milk. I find you don't have to heat this up and mess around for a few pence more. Manual could be better, doesn't explain temps very well.
