Guest guest Posted August 10, 2009 Report Share Posted August 10, 2009 Rhonda, If I had the money I'd buy the excalibur dehydrator, then I could make lots at once and still use it for other things, but we are a bit cash poor at the moment and it will have to wait. jena LOL!! Jena... I've been thinking I need to get a second yogurt maker. I make my son's yogurt with 1/2 & 1/2 and mine with whole milk. The one yogurt maker we have is never off! Now my DD wants me to start making her yogurt (she lives an hour away, but comes to visit often .. you know.. she has laundry!) and I'm not sure how to keep up with the demand with just one machine. Yup.. I think I'm going to have to break down and have 2! Rhonda UCSon, 16, CDSCD 2 months we use 2 yoghurt makers and make cream also.I hope this helps,jenaHusband crohns, minimal meds scd 10 mths.

Guest guest Posted August 10, 2009 Report Share Posted August 10, 2009 That one looks great. Do you mix the starter in the entire batch of milk, then pour into individual jars? Do you get an even amount of starter per container that way? That's all I worry about. Rhonda At 06:56 PM 8/10/2009, you wrote: You might want to check out the new Yolife yogurt maker.

Guest guest Posted August 11, 2009 Report Share Posted August 11, 2009 Yep I just add the starter to the full liter (or 2 or 3) of milk, mix well, then pour into individual jars. I've never had a problem doing that and it has always been consistent. I contemplated getting an Excalibur but didn't like the idea of having a noisy fan running for 24 hours. I will probably get the 4-tray model eventually for making jerky and dried fruit, but for yogurt I'm more than happy with the Yolife maker. I can actually fit 3 liters at a time (of one type of milk) in my own jars I have (4 tall 3-cup jars) or 2 liters of two types of milk (2 cups in each jar). It was pretty inexpensive too, less than what I paid for my Yogourmet maker. Kat > > > > > > LOL!! Jena... I've been thinking I need to get a second yogurt maker.

Guest guest Posted August 11, 2009 Report Share Posted August 11, 2009 Huh, I like that tall lid option. And 3 liters at a time is not bad at all. I'm so sick of the donvier, which is what I have, as the cups are always cracking and I am always taping them up so they won't leak. You either need to use their cups or have some cups that are precisely the right size to fit into the heated wells. Can you use glass jars - like a standard peanut nut butter size - to fit into the Yolife with the tall lid?

Guest guest Posted August 11, 2009 Report Share Posted August 11, 2009 Marilyn did say that the Excalibur is pretty quiet and that would make a lot of yogurt, if you're able to buy it. The jars I got for the Yolife are the taller ones of the Unico Marinated Artichokes (not SCD legal): http://www.unico.ca/cgi-bin/products.cgi?id=43 I used to make an artichoke dish (pre-SCD) and saved up all the jars. 4 of them fit perfectly in the Yolife. If you're interested I can get the dimensions tonight so you can see if you have any jars that size. Or if you live in Canada, you can purchase 4 of these from most Grocery stores, they're about 2-3$ each. I have other jars which hold about 2-3 cups each and I can fit 3 of them in. So it's pretty flexible but if you want the 3 liters, then the jars above will work. Note that I did try stacking small jars with the tall Yolife lid, and that did not work at all! The lids on the jars do not conduct enough heat to the jars placed on top of them. Kat > >>>> > >>>> LOL!! Jena... I've been thinking I need to get a second yogurt > >>>> maker.

Do you know how much I would be able to fit in the 4-tray model? I don't have room for a 9-tray but wanted to get the 4-tray for jerky and dried fruit. If it's quiet enough I'd try yogurt as well, but would it fit a few liters?

The way I figured it was that for less than twice the price of the small one, I got four times the drying space. And it doesn't take up four times the space of the smaller one. You would have to use smaller, flatter containers and figure out how many you could fit in the smaller one while allowing plenty of space for circulation of the warm air during the yogurt incubation period. — Marilyn New Orleans, Louisiana, USA Undiagnosed IBS since 1976, SCD since 2001 Darn Good SCD Cook No Human Children Shadow & Sunny Longhair Dachshund Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
