3. Pour mixture to just below the top of each of the Yogurt Jars
and snap Jar Lids securely onto filled Yogurt Jars. Place
filled Yogurt Jars with Lids into the Base of the Yogurt
Maker. Once all Yogurt Jars are in place on the Base, cover
Base with Yogurt Maker Lid.
4. Make sure Power Switch is in the OFF (0) position and then
plug Power Cord into a 120 Volt AC electrical outlet.
5. Flip Power Switch into the ON (I) position.
6. Yogurt will take 8 to 10 hours to process. Set the Manual
Timer on the Yogurt Maker Lid to correspond with the time
you wish to check the yogurt’s progress. Yogurt should be
partially set after processing and will thicken further after
refrigeration. If not partially set process another hour until
set.
7. After processing flip the Power Switch into the OFF (0)
position and then unplug Power Cord from outlet. Remove
Yogurt Maker Lid from Base.
8. Remove Yogurt Jars from Base and place in a refrigerator
to chill for at least 2 hours. Once yogurt is chilled feel free
to add fruit or any other flavoring. Keep yogurt refrigerated
until use.
NOTE:
You may find it helpful to set aside 1/2 cup of yogurt
from each batch to use as the yogurt starter on the next batch.
Tips For Best Results
1. Be sure Yogurt Jars and their Lids, as well as any other
utensils used to heat or measure ingredients, are clean.
Impurities can affect the growth of the yogurt culture.
2. Make sure the milk used for preparing the yogurt is cooled
between 100° and 110°F before adding yogurt starter. If the
milk is too warm, the yogurt culture will be destroyed. If the
milk is slightly cooler, additional processing will be required.
Use a candy or deep fryer thermometer that registers as
low as 100°F. Milk should be lukewarm, not hot.
3. Be sure to mix yogurt starter and milk gently but thoroughly
with a clean spoon.
DO NOT BEAT OR WHIP.
If not mixed
well, the yogurt may thicken unevenly in the Jars. For best
results, take a couple of ounces of warm milk and mix
thoroughly with starter until there are no lumps. When this
small quantity is mixed, add the remaining warm milk and
stir.
