The Yogurt Has A Bad Taste
•
Flavored yogurt may have been used as a starter instead of plain yogurt. Do
not use yogurt that has fruit or flavorings mixed into the yogurt, or fruit on the
bottom. Vanilla flavored yogurt will not work as a starter culture. Use only Plain
yogurt as a starter culture.
•
The yogurt starter or culture may be expired. Using fresh, unopened yogurt as
starter culture is helpful in ensuring consistent results.
•
The milk may be expired. Using fresh milk will produce better flavored yogurt.
•
The yogurt may have been left in the Dash Greek Yogurt Maker too long. The
longer the yogurt is heated in the Yogurt Maker, the more pronounced the “tart”
flavor will be. If you like a mild-tasting yogurt, use the minimum timer settings
recommended.
After Straining, The Yogurt Does Not Have the Desired Texture
•
If it is too thick you might have strained it for too long. You can mix a few
tablespoons of the whey back into the yogurt to thin it out.
•
If the Greek Yogurt is too thin, strain it for a longer amount of time.
•
If the strained yogurt is lumpy, try mixing it well with a spoon. This could be
because the milk was overheated (past 185º F) and is separating into lumps.
•
If you cannot achieve the desired thickness by straining, try adding ½ cup
powdered milk before heating the milk.
