Euro Cuisine Yogurt Maker YM80

A well balanced yogurt maker, small and compact, this little “fermenter” prepares your home made yogurts the way you want them to be.

Aside its automatic twin this Euro Cuisine Yogurt Maker YM80 has been rated with a generous amount of stars and a lot of positive feedback from users, this is probably due to its affordability and overall user friendly interface (there is no interface actually, everything is just so super simple), just follow the instructions, add a little flavoring to your liking and leave it to work overnight, voila you have a serving of yogurt.

Euro Cuisine Yogurt Maker - YM80

This yogurt maker comes with seven 6 ounce jars, considerably small, but perfect for a small family of 3, you can make different flavors and different types of yogurt with these individual jars. These reusable glass jars remove the need of plastic containers that store bought yogurt come in, a definite win for the environment.

The jars each have individual lids, this lets me stack and cramp the tiny jars without worrying that they would topple over and spill all that yogurt goodness all over the fridge, but remember since the lids are plastic don’t be closing them when the jars are still hot.

I do wish that this Euro Cuisine Yogurt Maker YM80 had an automatic turn off switch, but this is not a problem if you time it right, also a few extra hours on the maker won’t harm your yogurt at all, just make sure not to leave them too long, or your yogurt will lose its creaminess.

The cover for the maker does act as a good shield to protect your yogurt while they are being cooked, however vapor does develop and condenses on the lid, which in time will gather and drip into the little jar in the middle, there is no way to prevent this aside covering the jar with its lid (this will in turn cause the bacteria to not be as “happy” as they are supposed to, which in turn ruins your yogurt), so a little water in your yogurt is not that a big of a deal?

The jars have this annoying angle just under the threads, this traps all sorts of things and makes the jars hard to clean, even when I throw them into the dishwasher I am just amazed to see how the left over yogurt manages to stay snuggled and unharmed in that spot.

So this is a great starter for those who want to try making their own yogurt, a little understanding on how milk turns into yogurt and the right ingredients with this Euro Cuisine Yogurt Maker – YM80 will get you making yogurt in no time.
