YOGHURT PREPARATION When you use your Yoghurt Maker for the rst time you will need to Milk (use one of the following): Whole milk, 2%, 1%, skim milk, soy or almond milk. Note: Whole milk usually gives the best taste. Milk products have a lower fat content and take longer to prepare and prepare, resulting in a softer yoghurt. Bought natural yoghurt with active probiotics (Buy the freshest available, which has the latest expiry date.) Note: Do not use liquid or avoured yoghurts or fruit yoghurts as starting culture. Freeze-dried yoghurt cultures are available in most health food stores. You also need:

• Timer (if the machine has an on/off switch)

• High pot or a large microwave-proof measuring cup

• Liquid measuring cup

Preparation Yoghurt from fresh milk (this method is not suitable for almond and soy milk) 1 Pour the milk into a saucepan or microwaveable measuring cup. 2 Heat the milk at medium temperature on the stove or microwave and stir occasionally. Keep an eye on the milk. As soon as it begins to boil, it will overow quickly. Remove it from the stove immediately. Note: If you are using raw milk, let it boil for several minutes, stirring constantly to prevent it from overowing. 3 Set the milk aside and let it cool to 35-43°C. If you put the milk in a bowl of cold water, it will cool down faster. Use a whisk and gradually mix half of the cooled milk into the yoghurt starter culture until a smooth mass is formed. Note: If you use cultures from yoghurt that has already been made, the yoghurt should not be older than 3-4 days. 4 Then add the remaining milk and mix with a whisk until it is completely mixed and no lumps are left. 5 Pour the mixture into clean glasses up to just below the thread or into the rectangular plastic box, without the plastic strainer. The following method is suggested for soy and almond milk

• Heat the desired milk in a saucepan or microwave.

• Heat the milk to 35-43 °C. Keep an eye on the milk and use a thermometer to avoid overheating.

• Follow steps 4 to 6 of the above method. Preparation table As far as quantity and preparation are concerned, keep to the following instructions. Use the 6 glasses and/or the rectangular plastic container. Note: The plastic container is not included and must be purchased separately.22

Put your homemade yogurt in a separate bowl and clean the large container and the strainer. Place the strainer on large container and rotate clockwise until the notches are on top of the large container. Leave some space between the bottom of the sieve and the bottom of the large container.

Put the desired amount of yoghurt, which you want to make into Greek yoghurt, into the sieve. Replace the plastic lid and place the box in the refrigerator for 3 hours. The longer you leave it in the fridge, the thicker the yoghurt will become.

Pour the drained Greek yoghurt into washed out glasses or into a box with a lid. Screw the lids onto the jars. You can rene the yoghurt with avours or fruits.24
