Euro Cuisine YMX750 Yogurt Maker

Product arrived in excellent condition. The only thing I didn't realise, was that it won't work on the UK electrics. If it had worked with our electrical system it would have been just what I wanted.

No mention of this in the product description - it's 110V. Can't use it in the UK

This product doesn't work in Singapore voltage and it shouldn't even be listed here. Questions & Answers was misleading stating it would work, but it was a total failure when it came as it is designed for 110V. I tried to contact the seller with no success.

This review is for the YM-80 model. I had previously owned the YM-100. It performed very well for a number of years but recently gave out on me (started heating unevenly). I do feel I got my money's worth from that yogurt maker, because it got used hundreds of times. However, I realized I had not been using the shut-off timer feature, so I decided to go with the cheaper YM-80 unit this time around. After having used it, I believe this one was the right choice for me. The YM-80 is very similar to the YM-100, with the exception that it does not include a timer. You will see numbers on the side of the unit; these do not really serve a countdown purpose. There's a notch in the lid that you can position at one of the numbers, the idea being that the number represents the time you want to turn the yogurt maker off. So if you are doing something that will take 12 hours and you start at 8 in the morning, you'd put the little notch at 8 to remind yourself to take the yogurt out at 8 PM. I am not using this feature, but it's there if you want it. The jars are the same for the YM-80 and YM-100, so now I have an extra set of jars. I do like the jars. I find that they are a good serving size (6 ounces) and I'm very happy that the yogurt never touches plastic (the lids are plastic but you do not use them while you are incubating the yogurt). You should wash the jars prior to the first use and after every subsequent use. If you use a non-heated dry, you can put the lids in the dishwasher as well (I use the silverware basket for the lids). The lids screw on and off and are very easy to put on and take off, but are also fairly secure when on (though I would not suggest turning the jars upside down -- that would be pushing your luck). Here is the procedure I typically follow for making yogurt (I always make dark chocolate/cherry yogurt): 1) Heat 5 cups of skim milk to 185 degrees Fahrenheit (this kills any bacteria already present in the milk) 2) Chop up 2 ounces of unsweetened chocolate (I use the Bakers baking chocolate) and put it in a heat-proof bowl 3) When the milk is hot, remove it from the heat and pour it over the chopped chocolate; mix with an immersion blender or hand mixer (a spoon is not really enough) 4) Stir in a packet of nonfat milk powder (wherein one packet is equivalent to one quart, rehydrated); again use an immersion blender or hand mixer 5) Let the milk/chocolate mixture cool (you can speed this up by setting the bowl it's in, in a container filled with ice) 6) In a medium frying pan, put half a bag (about 5 ounces, I think) of frozen tart cherries; squeeze agave nectar over them (can also use honey, or even sugar) 7) Heat the cherries and sweetener on high heat; you'll essentially be making a chunky syrup; stir with a heat-proof spatula (and smash the cherries, while you're at it, removing pits if you find any) 8) When your syrup thickens, distribute it among the seven yogurt jars 9) When your milk/chocolate mixture has cooled to approximately 110-115 degrees, stir in a packet of yogurt starter (I like to use the Yogourmet yogurt starter); again, use the immersion blender or hand mixer 10) Distribute the milk/chocolate mixture into the jars on top of the cherry syrup 11) Put the jars into the yogurt maker and turn it on 12) Shake one or two jars periodically (wait at least 5-6 hours before doing this) to see if the yogurt has set 13) Once the yogurt has set, put the lids on the jars and put them in the refrigerator for a few hours The instruction manual says it can take 10-12 hours to make yogurt with skim milk. I'd say this was fairly accurate. So leaving this running overnight is one option. I usually just run it on Sundays, when I'm home all day. All sorts of things can alter the incubation time, from add-ins to starting milk temperature, so I find that it is better to just check on the yogurt periodically than to assume an exact number of hours will get the job done. Also, don't keep homemade yogurt longer than about a week, for food safety reasons. Please note: This could, indeed, be used for making non-dairy yogurt. You would want a non-dairy yogurt starter (there's one from Belle + Bella) and you'd probably need to seek advice elsewhere on the web regarding incubation time, thickeners, etc. I have only used this to make dairy yogurt. Anyway, the YM-80 seems to have all the features I need. I'm happy with the purchase and looking forward to several years (at least) of heavy use.

Excelente. Faz iogurte denso, mais liquido, com recheio, fica perfeito mesmo usando iogurte comum do mercado

Fácil de usar, quedó muy rico mi yogurt! Muy buena consistencia! Lo adquirí por la practicidad de los frasquitos individuales, están super bonitos y las tapas ensamblan perfecto! Me gusta que no tengo que manipular el yogurt ya hecho, se queda la porción individual protegida hasta su consumo! Eso es excelente, higiénico!

I purchased this yoghurt maker only to find it will not work in AUSTRALIA. I contacted the seller who agreed for me to return the item. I printed out the sellers return label and went to the Post Office. At the Post office i was informed that it would cost more to return the item than I paid for it. Contacted the seller asking would they refund the postage charges. NO REPLY FROM SELLER, THEIR YOGHURT MAKER NO CONSIGNED TO GARBAGE BIN. BE AWARE.
