RE: Non-Electric yogurt maker!

[Guest guest]

Is anyone paying attention to this? NON-ELECTRIC YOGURT MAKER!

I checked up on search engines: Non-electric yogurt makers. Got two brands:

Solait and EasyYo. The Solair was a bust in trying to find their own URL but

EasyYo is right here: http://www.easiyo.com/range/yogurtmaker/

Is this the answer to everyone's problems with the conventional electric yogurt

makers? Is it too good to be true? Can we get some positive feedback from those

using this machine and the experts.

True it makes only 1 liter at a time only, but most do anyway...

PLEASE, please, please. Can we get some definate answers? So in the future when

newbies ask us " Can you recommend a yogurt maker? " We really have a true

recommendation.

Yes, it is non electric. I haven't tried them myself as I'm not sure

what to buy. For odd reason, not many of the electric one for sale

here. The only thing is with the non-electric one it has only max 1

litre capacity, that means I have to buy at least a couple for 1

batch (1 ltr milk + the yogurt culture / starter) and it is said to

be used for 12 hours but will hold okay up to 24 hours. Any comment

from anybody will be greatly appreciated. thanks.

On the subject of the Non-electric yogurt maker seen here--

http://www.easiyo.com/range/yogurtmaker/

--I am not a yogurt guru but these are my thoughts:

Apparently to use this yogurt maker you pour in boiling water which is

separated from your milk with a baffle. The baffle keeps the milk at

the " right temperature(s) " . But it is unclear from the website by

what means the yogurt maker accomplishes the following:

All lactic cultures grow at different temperatures, so by going

through a temperature range as in the EASIYO Yogurt Maker, each and

every culture has a chance to grow.

I wonder if they would explain how this happens or if that is a trade

secret. If it does in fact pass through a range of temperatures,

wouldn't some of them be too high for some strains? And wouldn't some

of the time the temperature be too low for our strains?

Someone with access to a lab could make some yogurt in one of these

makers and send it to the lab to see if all the lactose is gone and if

the probiotic is sufficiently there.

I wonder about variation in temperature due to how quickly you got the

water in, how hot or cold the kitchen is, and so forth.

We'd have to keep an eye on the condition of the baffle as time goes

on. This doesn't seem to be the kind of machine we should keep

opening to check the temperature.

Just being wild and crazy now: I think what we all really need is a

multi-use home yogurt lactose and probiotic test kit. Any enterprisimg

inventors out there? :-)

This sounds fanastic! It really works for the full 24 hours? Does one

yogurtmaker hold a full quart of milk? Does it work well with goat milk? I

can't wait to hear more!!!

I wrote previously that " if " it holds the temperature within the

proper range for 24(-29) hours than it would be fine to use. A

friend of mine had a non electric yogurt maker but it did not hold

temperature for 24 hrs. It only held the temperature for about 8

hrs or so.

Hi Sheila,

I've re-read Elaine's book and it is not suggested to use the non-

electric one as it won't keep the warmth up to 24 hours, they can

only keep up to 12 hours. Eventhough Easiyo said it will be fine if

we leave the yogurt in the machine for up to 24 hours but it won't

be the same as the electric one. so we should forget about this one

I suppose.

I have to order one from GI Pro Health (Euro Cuisine) as we don't

have any electric one here (sadly..) and it cost me USD50 just to

send it here, more expensive than the machine itself (I ordered

progurt from them as well). Any comment for this machine is welcomed.
