Top 15 yogurt maker for home
Dear bacteria, be fruitful and multiply
Author: Nika Ekholm, Oleg Yasinsky
Is yogurt maker the most useless or absolutely necessary appliance in the kitchen? Customer opinions diverge. If you are constantly preparing dairy desserts, or if you have a baby, a yogurt maker will undoubtedly make your life easier. Should I choose a model more expensive?
What to look for when choosing a yogurt maker?
- A model that costs more is not necessarily a better cook. All yogurt makers work the same way - they support the given mode. This is all you need to make yogurt. Buying an expensive model, you pay for the name, for additional features, for convenience.
- Almost all instruments are made in China. But large manufacturers strictly control the quality of production and are responsible for it. Choose a famous brand.
- A useful feature is auto power off. After the end of the cooking, the heating will be turned off, and there will be a guarantee that the yoghurt will not be reversed.
What not to do?
- Be wary of "plastic". If the device is made at the factory of a famous manufacturer (Tefal, Moulinex, etc.) under strict control, then all its details are absolutely safe. In production, high-quality food grade plastic is used; when it is heated to the temperature indicated in the passport, no harmful substances are released during the life of the yogurt maker.
- Chasing the number of jars. Make a yogurt "in reserve" still does not work, its shelf life is limited (depending on the type of starter, read the instructions). Therefore, you should not buy the device for 12 jars, if your family eats yogurt only a child 3 times a week.
- Look for a model with a temperature controller for manual temperature setting with high accuracy. For the growth and development of yogurt bacteria, a temperature range must be maintained, and even the simplest models cope with this task.
