THE MIXTURE
To make PLAIN YOGHURT you will need - Milk, Fresh Yoghurt and a whisk or mixing spoon (not supplied).
TYPES OF MILK TO USE -
Any type of milk can be used in your yoghurt mixture. Calorie content, fat content and flavour will vary,
however, depending on the type of milk chosen, and yoghurt made from semi-skimmed or skimmed milk
will have a thinner consistency.
PASTEURISED MILK:
Should be heated to boiling point to eliminate bacteria, then allowed to cool to below 50°C before use.
UNTREATED GOAT’S/EWE’S MILK:
Bring to the boil and allow to simmer for 7 minutes, leaving to cool before use.
All other types of milk (long-life UHT, sterilised, evaporated, reconstructed) do not need boiling but should
be used at room temperature, not straight from the fridge.
TYPES OF YOGHURT TO USE -
Use fresh, unflavoured, natural live yoghurt.
CAUTION: Ensure the yoghurt used is within its sell by date.
CAUTION: Do not whisk the mixture too vigorously.
When you are ready to enjoy your plain or Greek style yoghurt, feel free to add some flavoured toppings
such as honey, fruit or jams.
NOTE: Always add flavourings AFTER the fermenting process as doing this during will significantly alter
the overall taste.

OPERATION
• Once your desired yoghurt mixture has been
made, spoon equal amounts into the 7 JARS
supplied.
IMPORTANT: Do not add any fruits or other
flavourings at this stage of the Yoghurt making
process.
• Securely screw each of the LIDS onto the JARS.
• Place the JARS inside the FERMENTATION POT
and sit the COVER on top.
• Plug the Yoghurt Maker into a suitable mains
socket. Switch on the appliance using the
POWER BUTTON and press the TIME BUTTON
to increase the hours to that you require. Press
the POWER BUTTON again to activate the
appliance.
NOTE: The recommended ferment time is
between 8-10 hours so that the yoghurt mixture
coagulates and the consistency resembles that
of yoghurt. The longer the ferment time, the
greater the acidity.
IMPORTANT: The ferment time will be affected
by the surrounding temperature and the
temperature of the produce. Accordingly, more
time may be needed when operating in low
surrounding temperatures or if you are using
refrigerated milk, up to a maximum of 14 hours.
TIP: In order to shorten the ferment time and
improve the equality of heat transmission, add
some boiled water to the FERMENTATION POT
so that the yoghurt consistency appears more
even and smooth.
• Once the 8-10 hour ferment time has elapsed,
the yoghurt mixture is edible, however it
is recommended that you place the JARS
in the refrigerator for several days before
consumption.
TIP: The refrigerated yoghurt can be flavoured
with fruit juices or honey if desired.
