Product Reviews of Yogourmet Electric Yogurt Maker
Product Review: Excellent machine!
Summary: 5 Stars
We got this machine after having one of those other ones that uses all of the tiny little jars to make yogurt. The other machine did a fine job, but it was SUCH A PAIN to deal with all of the little jars all of the time.
This machine uses the 2 quart tub, which is super simple to use and clean and then you have a large batch all at once. Of course if you want you can make less than the two quarts at a time, but with our family we eat it up so fast there's no point. Somehow it also makes the yogurt in only four or four and a half hours versus the eight to twelve hours of the other machine. I don't know the specifics - but maybe it runs a bit warmer to make it go faster? It works very well and is very easy to use. I like the water bath that surrounds the container with the yogurt - it provides a very even heat to the yogurt and keeps any hot spots from killing off the cultures.
A very good machine, and soon we're going to buy another for my mom. This was way better than the other one we tried, which is her old one.
Product Review: Good machine can be improved

This one lasted almost 4 years. It's the only yogourt maker available here (in BC) that makes 1 and 2 litre batches instead of fussy little ones. The heating coil can't be adjusted so it eventually fails to deliver enough heat. Yogourmet provides a 2 litre container which is a bit too large and unwieldy for me. They flatly refuse to provide a one litre container. The nearest I can find is a 940 mL yogourt container so I have to waste 60 mL with each batch. (Milk comes in 1L containers here.) The price is a bit high for what you get.Product Review: A great product!

It saves us a LOT of money (75% by my reckoning) and it produces very tasty yogurt from 2% milk. Make the yogurt (4 hours exactly) and immediatly transfer to refridgerator (this firms it up perfectly for use next day).Product Review: Uncomplicated process + large quantity

I would prefer to make large batches of yogurt without the purchase of special equipment, like using my oven interior overnight to incubate. However, my oven is in a 1949 range, and it is not well insulated enough to hold a temperature for incubation overnight. This yogurt maker works on the same principle, and is a full 2 quart capacity. One can also make just one quart, but I have not done so. Why? It takes the same amount of effort to make one or two. It is easy to store, light weight, and easy to clean too. I recommend a second batch jar to go with it. I always have a jar in the frig, and the ability to start another whenever I want to. Goat milk yogurt in this appliance is to die for!Product Review: Yogourmet Maker

We bought this product due to the lack of soy yogurt availability in all the places we travel. I would like to have known from the product description that it would work using alternatives to traditional dairy. Since receiving the product my husband has made several batchs of soy milk yogurt, learning the little tricks needed to make a good firm product. This maker is very easy to use and produces consitantly good yogurt. This is a vast improvement over the little cups that do not product enough at one time to make it worth spending the time making yogurt. To be perfectly satisfied, one must experiment with the incubation time to obtain the consistancy wanted.
