6. Once the milk has properly cooled, the machine will “beep” and the
display will show “add.” It is now time to add the yogurt culture.
The machine will continue to “beep” until the culture is added.
7. The easiest way to add live yogurt culture is by mixing in a
tablespoon per quart of store-bought or previously made yogurt.
Yogurt culture (available at health food stores) may also be used.
Follow manufacturer’s instructions for proper ratio.
Tip:
To better distribute the culture, transfer a small amount of milk
from the cooking pot to a bowl. Mix the culture in with the milk in
the bowl, then pour it back into the cooking pot. Stir in thoroughly
to ensure even distribution.

YOGURT button. The display will now flash “8:00” for eight hours of
cooking time.

Tip:
The longer yogurt cooks, the thicker and more tart it will become.

cooking. The display will countdown the cooking time.
11. After the selected time has elapsed, the Multicooker will “beep”
and stop heating. The digital display will show “done.” The
Multicooker will continue to “beep” until it is shut off.

containers. Glass jars are ideal, preferably fresh from the
dishwasher. Cover and refrigerate yogurt for 8 hours.

Tip:
To make Greek-style yogurt, pour the yogurt into a cheesecloth-
lined colander set over a bowl. Place it in the refrigerator and allow
