Looking to Buy a Yogurt Maker?

Yogurt makers basically come in two types - electric and non-electric. And which ever you use - you can still end up with all the health giving properties of home made yogurt. When you have your own you can experiment to find what suits you and your families tastebud's best.

Cow's milk - or sheep, goat, or maybe soy? It's your choice. And it goes without saying that it has to have live culture in it.

But first, you need to compare yogurt makers so that you make the right choice.

Electric Yogurt Makers

These take all the guess work out of making yogurt. Brands such as Donvier and Yogourmet operate by having a stirrer that is also a thermometer. You simply place this stirrer in the yogurt and it tells you when it is time to add the starter. Most brands have an automatic shutoff and a feature to alert you when the yogurt is ready.

Models such as Eurocuisine have a see through lid and glass containers so that you can see what's happening. This can be reassuring to the novice.

Yolife has a devoted following of fans and with a five year warranty behind it you can see why. You can use the Yolife system with your own mason jars.

Non-Electric Yogurt Makers

I have to admit these are my favorite! I have an EasiYo model and nothing could be simpler. You mix the powder with cold water in the jar, add boiling water to the required level and put the jar inside. Leave it until the morning and its done. Beautiful tasty yogurt to have with your breakfast.

Some people do worry that you're using a powder but it is simply pasteurized whole and skim milk solids (98% from free range cows - or so my packet here in New Zealand tells me) with live lactic acid bacteria then added.

And, of course, you don't have to USE their powder. You can make your own yogurt using milk and live yogurt and simply use the EasiYo container to make it in. Best of all worlds.

The big plus in my eyes of non-electric makers is that because the yogurt does not stay at the one temperature (which is usually the case with electric ones) each of the different cultures in the yogurt gets its chance to grow and thrive.

But to each his own! Follow the links above to compare the good and bad points of the various models or browse through the different models below and see what takes your fancy. If you don't find the particular yogurt maker that you have your heart set on, remember that more items are available by clicking on the "View all xxx items on eBay" at the bottom left.
