Here is a simple, economical way to make yogurt and kefir at home using fresh ingredients, without the additives, preservatives or sugars found in many store-bought options. The insulated maker is designed to maintain the consistent temperature needed for the yogurt or kefir to culture and requires only two ingredients – milk and a starter (use a small amount of store-bought plain yogurt/kefir, a powder starter or kefir granules).
The maker includes an insulated container with a lid, a microwave-safe inner container with a separate silicone lid, and a strainer (used to produce a thick Greek-style yogurt or to stir and separate kefir granules).
The process is straightforward – heat the milk to the correct temperature (in the microwave or in a pot on the stove), allow it to cool slightly, add in your choice of starter and then leave it to culture inside the maker on your counter. No electricity required. Once it has fermented for 6 to 20 hours (depending on what you are making), take the inner container out of the insulated container and place it in the fridge for storage. A best practice is to reserve some to use as a starter for next time, eliminating the need to use a store-bought starter again.
Made from LFGB-approved plastic and silicone, the maker is just over 6" high with a 5 1/2" diameter and has an 800ml capacity.
An instruction booklet is included with recipes to make plain yogurt and kefir, but you can flavor it as desired once cooled. Dishwasher safe except for the insulated container, which is hand wash only.
