Instructions for use

Before use:

• Make sure that all the product's packaging has been removed.
• Before using the product for the first time, clean the parts that will come into contact with food in the manner described in the cleaning section.
• To prepare the yogurts you will need a litre of milk and ferment

\*Choosing the milk:

• Preferably choose whole milk or semi-skimmed milk (long life UHT or powdered milk). This milk doesn't need to be boiled before being used. Do not use skimmed milk.
• Whole milk will provide more ferments and

aromas.

• Fresh or pasteurised milk must be boiled previously. They should be left to cool and the cream removed. These types of milk contain more vitamins and dietary minerals.
• To obtain thicker yogurts, add 2 or 3 dessert spoons of powdered milk.
• Use the milk at room temperature or heat it slightly (37°C - 40°C).

\*Choosing the ferment

Choose:

A - Use a yogurt (preferably whole milk yogurt) with an expiration date as far in advance as possible.
B - Use freeze-dried ferment (it can be purchased in supermarkets, pharmacies or specialist shops). Respect the activation time recommended on the ferment instructions.
C - Use the yogurt that you have made yourself. Do not use it more than 5 times.

Preparing the yogurt

- Carefully mix a litre of milk with the ferment. To obtain a homogenous mix, beat the yogurt until the mixture is smooth. Then add the milk while continuing to stir. Make sure froth doesn't form.

Starting the machine:

• Place the lids on the pots (D).
• Place the pots in the fridge for a minimum of 2 hours before eating. If you wait 24 hours, they will have a thicker consistency.
