Re: How do your Sterilize plastic equipment for yogurt making?

[Guest guest]

Put it in the upper rack of your dishwasher. Ron

But I have no idea how to sterilize the plastic Yogourmet inner

container.

I'd appreciate input from other people who use this machine.

Thanks Ron and Katy.

I'm glad to know that the plastic won't melt if I pour boiling water into

it, then dump it right out again before use.

From both your replies, I gather that once I have run the container through

the dishwasher (on the upper rack), the insides are sterile and will stay so

until I need to make the yogurt.

My dishwasher has lots of options, including " sani-rinse " which is meant to

sterilize the items being washed. I was not sure that this was sufficient

sterilization, but both of you think so.

I'm relieved that the answer to my problem is so simple. Thanks again.
