10.
Always keep yoghurt refrigerated until used. Yoghurt may be refrigerated for up
to one week. After this time, it has a tendency to become very tart.
11.
Add flavouring or fruit to yoghurt after processing and refrigeration.
12.lf yoghurt never thickens, there are several reasons:
(1) starter too weak or added when milk too hot;
(2) starter not mixed thoroughly with milk;
(3) utensils used in preparing yoghurt not clean; or (4)
starter was stirred too vigorously into the milk.
Before Using Yoghurt Maker For The First Time
Before using your Yoghurt Maker for the first time, wash the yoghurt container, its lid
and yoghurt maker cover in hot soapy water with a dishcloth or sponge, rinse
thoroughly and dry. Wipe Yoghurt Maker heating base with a damp cloth and dry.
Your Yoghurt Maker is now ready to use.
HOW TO MAKE YOGHURT
You will need:
Equipment
•
Kambrook YMl0 Yoghurt Maker with supplied spoon/thermometer
•
Microwave oven or double saucepan with lid (2 litre capacity)
Ingredients
•
1 litre Fresh Milk of your choice
•
4 Heaped Yoghurt spoons of Skim Milk Powder (optional)
•
Freeze dried yoghurt culture (quantity as per packet directions)
or
•
Up to half cup of fresh natural commercial yoghurt
Method
1.
Make sure all equipment is clean.
2.
Switch on the Yoghurt Maker with the cover in place and allow unit to pre-
warm whilst you are preparing milk.
3.
Heating the milk.
It is essential to sterilise all types of milk except for sterilised or
UHT/Longlife milk (provided it is fresh from its sealed container). Sterilising the
milk will improve the texture of the yoghurt and destroy harmful bacteria. Add
skim milk powder to milk before heating. There are two ways to sterilise the milk:
a.
Place milk in a double saucepan (Fig. A), with the water in the lower container
(a single saucepan may be used, however, constant supervision and stirring
of milk is required). Bring milk gently to the boil 82°C (180°F). Around this
temperature the milk should suddenly rise and foam. Remove immediately
from heat to avoid spillage.
b.
Place milk directly into the yoghurt pot and place into a microwave (Fig.
B). Set microwave on high (600-650 watts) for approximately 10 minutes, or
until milk rises and foams. Remove from microwave immediately. Watch the
milk carefully while bringing to the boil and remove from the heat source once it
rises and foams. Be careful not to let the milk boil over.
