■■ Make sure that the yogurt maker is unplugged before any handling. ■■ Clean all of the parts well before using your yogurt maker (see upkeep section). ■■ Dry the base well before putting the glass jars into the unit.

ATTENTION: Never put your yogurt maker on a vibrating surface

(such as the top of a refrigerator) or exposed to drafts. Always leave it immobile during the process, do not move it or remove the glass jars during the cycle as this could detract from the quality of the yogurt.

■■ Mix 1 liter of milk with a ferment (see practical suggestions) ■■ Use ingredients at room temperature. The lower the room temperature, the longer the time needed. ■■ For optimal results, whip the yogurt separately. Add a little milk and whip again until you obtain a homogeneous and smooth mixture. Add the rest of the milk while continuing the whipping. ■■ Put the mixture into the glass jars. ■■ Put the jars, without their covers, into the yogurt maker. ■■ Place the cover on the yoghurt maker (see picture 2). ■■ Stack the container lids within reach of the yoghurt maker (see picture 1). ■■ Plug the appliance into a mains socket. The screen flashes and displays ‘00’. ■■ Press the “time set” button until the desired time is displayed (see practical suggestions). The maximum programmable time is 44

PRACTICAL SUGGESTIONS:

■■ Whole or semi-skimmed UHT milk is easier to use (these types of milk do not require boiling) ■■ Raw or pasteurized milk (homogenized, 2% or skimmed) must be boiled (it would be dangerous to use raw milk without first boiling it) and cooled and then strained to remove the skin. ■■ Whole milk produces a yogurt that is more creamy and tasty. ■■ For yogurt with a firmer consistency, add about 5 teaspoons of powdered milk. ■■ Expect 8 to 10 hours for preparation of yogurt with whole milk, 10 to 12 hours for yogurt with semi-skimmed milk and 12 to 14 hours for yogurt with skimmed milk.

WARNING: never put the base of the unit or the plug into water.

■■ Base of the unit and plastic covers: clean the base of the yogurt maker with a moist sponge and a little dishwashing liquid. Dry it thoroughly. Do not put the plastic covers into a dishwasher, wash them by hand. ■■ Glass jars: the jars can be put in a dishwasher. They should be thoroughly dry before they are placed in the yogurt maker. ■■ To remove the markings from a lid, wipe with a dry cloth.

You can use several types of ferment: ■■ Plain yogurt sold in stores. ■■ Yogurt that you made before (remark: do not use yogurt that you have made more than 10 times because this will diminish the result). ■■ A freeze-dried ferment (in this case, add two hours to the preparation time).

■■ Keep your yogurt chilled, in a refrigerator. ■■ Do not keep it in the refrigerator for more than 8 to 10 days

RECIPES YOGURT WITH JAM

4 tablespoons of fruit jam or jelly - 1 plain yogurt or 1 bag of ferment –

SWEETENED YOGURTS Heat the jam or jelly over a very low flame. Add the milk gradually, then add the ferment. Mix well until the consistency is homogeneous.

Let it cool slightly, then put the mixture into the 7 jars. If you use a jam that is not very thick, you can mix it directly with the milk without first heating it.

You can either prepare plain yogurt according to the suggestions in the “start-up” section and then add granulated sugar, or you can add sugar before preparing the yogurt. To do this, add the sugar at the same time as the milk and ferment and mix well until the sugar is fully dissolved.

Variant: You can replace the sugar with vanilla-flavored sugar during the preparation.

2 tablespoons of sugar (according to taste) – 1 tablespoon of instant coffee – 1 plain yogurt or 1 ferment bag – 1 L of milk.

YOGURT WITH FRESH FRUITS Heat some milk over a low heat. Dissolve the coffee and the sugar in the milk. Mix well. Add the remainder of the cold milk and the ferment.

Mix until the consistency is homogeneous then put the mixture into the 7 jars. Option: use caramel or powdered chocolate instead of coffee.

Remark: if you use fresh fruits than contain a lot of acid, we suggest adding them to the yogurt after the preparation because the acidity of the fruit can kill the ferments and hinder the preparation of the yogurt.

1 cup of chopped fresh fruit – 4 to 5 tablespoons of sugar (according to your taste) – 1 plain yogurt or 1 bag of ferment – 1 L of milk. Mix the milk and the ferment until the consistency is homogeneous. Add the chopped fruits while continuing to mix. Put the mixture into the 7 jars.
