JoyMech Yogurt Maker, Compact Greek Yogurt Maker Machine with Constant Temperature Control, Stainless Steel Container, 1 Quart for Home Organic Yogurt

This is one neat yoghurt maker that is great value as it works well, is easy to use, and does and excellent job. It also came with excellent instructions. I am one happy customer and can recommend this cool device that gives one good yoghurt for far less than having to buy it. All one needs is some milk and a bit of yoghurt and one is off and running. I am one happy camper!

This yogurt has it all - and for half the price of the others I've looked at! When it first arrived, I thought the instruction manual must be missing: it was just a folded up sheet! I thought there had to be more that was missing, but this little machine is so easy to use; after pouring (UNHEATED!) milk and up to 1 tsp of the packaged culture(not included) into the provided metal canister, you put on the cover and plug it in. Voila! 12 hrs later, you have perfect yogurt. I tried mine with grass-fed whole milk and it was so rich and creamy I didn't need to strain it. I also made soy milk yogurt using West Life organic soy milk, 1 tsp of powdered culture, and 12 hrs later - rich, creamy soy yogurt! I was worried that incubating for 12 hrs would produce a very sour yogurt, but the taste was mild and creamy, with just a slight tanginess to it. This JoyMech yogurt maker is the perfect size for one person - the container holds about 3 1/2 cups of milk. It would definitely be too small for a family of 3 or 4, but for me, a container lasts me about 3 days if I eat the yogurt every day for 1 meal. The metal container is easy to pop into the dishwasher, and, best of all, unlike the Bear yogurt maker that I finally gave up on because of its breakable glass container, the JoyMech metal container is very easy to remove with no possible breakage.

Very simple to use but does not have temperature control. Some cultures need higher or lower temps than others. You need to start by warming your milk or 1/2 and 1/2 to 80-90 degrees or so before adding it to the yogurt machine because it took 12-16 hours to get the temperature up to 106 when I started with cold milk from the fridge. My recipe calls for 106 degrees for 36 hours. After it finally got to temp it kept climbing to 111 and I had to unplug it for 30 minutes and then plug back in. I used a meat thermometer to keep checking it every 4-6 hours. Eventually I had nice smooth yogurt.

Making yogurt WITHOUT heating milk to 185 first (or some saying a little higher) then cooling down to about 112 does not give you yogurt! The instructions are misleading. I bought it because it says you just put the powder in the milk and put in the yogurt maker and 12 hours later you have yogurt. This sounded too good to be true but thought I would try it. When it didn't work, I went to troubleshooting and it tells you if you didn't get yogurt it's because you didn't heat up the milk and then cool it! Heating the milk up first and cooling it down should be in the INSTRUCTIONS, NOT in the trouble shooting. I'm very baffled by the ones stating they had great yogurt by using it according to the instructions. I followed their instructions and ended up with something gross. It also does not make a full quart. I am returning this purchase and sticking with my faithful yogurt "thermos" method.

I'm using this to make Dr. William Davis's yogurt recipe, and it works! I'm on my third batch.

Fantastic! It’s simple to operate. Just plug it in. It’s very light weight. So it’s easy to put away. Just WOW!

The temperature on this went up to 115°. Definitely not suitable for a reuterii yogurt, which needs to stay at 100° or maybe slightly less. I had to rescue my batch and remove it from the yogurt maker, wrapped towels around it and finished it on my counter, luckily all the bacteria hadn't been killed yet.

Wonderful item. Makes great yogurt. Easy to clean.

VERY GOOD EASY TO USE MAKE YOUGART VERY NICE

Love this little machine. Works great. I eat yogurt everyday. Saves money.

es ist toll schade aber das man es nicht ein oder ausschalten kann

Petit prix mais bon produit quand même. 1L de lait fait environ 10 yaourts. J’utilise des ferments du commerce et le résultat est délicieux en 12h. Elle fait le job c’est parfait et elle prend peu de place avec sa simple cuve. Il n’y a pas de minuteur ni d’interrupteur mais au final ce n’est pas indispensable. J’aurais aimé un couvercle pour mettre la cuve au frigo après mais c’est pas grave. Super petit appareil.

Buon rapporto qualità prezzo
