Operation Instructions

Put all of the ingredients in the yogurt container and then cover it with the yogurt container lid.
Place the filled container into the housing and cover with the housing lid.
Plug the unit in and the default fermentation time (8 hours) will begin flashing on the screen. To change the fermentation time (1-24 hours) use the + and - buttons.
Once desired fermentation time is flashing on the LED display press the START button. At this point the fermentation numbers on the LED will become solid and fermentation countdown will begin.
After the fermentation is complete the unit will automatically switch into cooling mode and display C in the LED. As long as the unit is plugged in it will stay in cooling mode until you turn the unit off. After 8-12 hours the temperature of the yogurt will be between 43 and 52 degrees Fahrenheit.

Tips and Hints

Finished Yogurt and Taste

Longer fermentation times will produce a tangier yogurt but also aid in thickening. Strain yogurt overnight using a strainer lined with a coffee filter for an ultra-rich and thick treat.
Whole milk is recommended for making yogurt -- avoid ultra-pasteurized milk. Fuller-fat milks produce thicker yogurts.
When adding a flavor to yogurt wait until 6 hours after the cooling process has begun. Flavors can also be added to individual portions as needed instead of to the entire batch. Certain flavors may shorten the shelf life of yogurt. Fruit mix-in flavors last longer and are better added to the entire batch while sweeter syrups are best added to individual portions.
Yogurt will be at its best and should be eaten within the first three days after completion. Yogurt can be kept for up to 8 days.
