Yogurt Makers
How to choose yogurt makers
category
The category runs from Home & Garden to Yoghurt Makers. Your first split is material: stainless steel, plastic or glass.
colour
Colour choices include blue, green, pink, noche and purple. Match your kitchen, not your recipe.
capacity
1.5L suits a couple, 2L feeds a family, multiple jars split flavours but add washing.
type
plain electric makers, natto DIY, greek strainers, or multi cheese units. Choose by what you eat.
timer
digital models with 0 to 48 hour control give precision. Basic ones need you to watch the clock.
What's good
- Digital yoghurt makers with timers up to 48 hours let you start a batch overnight. Busy households benefit.
- Stainless steel inner pots resist stains and smells better than plastic. They hold up through repeated use.
- Multi yoghurt and soft cheese makers add a second function. You make cheese without another appliance.
- Greek yoghurt strainer makers turn thin yoghurt into thick texture. No shop bought strained pots needed.
- Jar based systems include storage jars for each portion. Ferment and fridge in the same vessel.
Things to watch
- Large 2L machines need more worktop room. Single users may find them excessive.
- Plastic bodied units can discolour after many batches. Stainless steel avoids this but weighs more.
- Greek strainer types need an extra filtering step. That adds time versus a standard set and forget maker.
- Seven jar sets mean seven lids and pots to wash. More parts, more drying space.
- Natto DIY models with steel inner containers demand careful temperature checks. Non digital ones leave room for error.
Care & maintenance
steel
Hand wash stainless steel inner pots to avoid scuffs. They keep their finish longer.
glass
Glass jars survive dishwashers but chip if knocked. Place them on a soft rack.
mesh
Rinse fine mesh yoghurt strainers straight after use. Leftover whey sours quickly.
plastic
Wipe plastic housings with a damp cloth. Skip abrasive pads that scratch the surface.
