Anyone use this to make yogurt?

I've used the bag to make yogurt, and it comes out perfectly (works better for us than just keeping it in the oven).

We make yogurt in our Wonderbag at least three times a week. We eat a lot of yogurt. We use quart sized ball jars filled with properly to temp inoculated milk right into the Wonderbag and cinch it up. We keep it in the bag for at least 8 hours. We were putting hot water in glass jars into the Wonderbag also to keep the temperature but found we didn't need it. We've been doing this for months and it works every time.

My apologies for our delay in response... Yogurt is popular to make in the Wonderbag. We will be posting a recipe on our blog soon. I will post a link to your question as soon as we have it up!

I use it to make yogurt all the time. I follow all the steps up to the point when I would wrap the pot in a towel to culture overnight. Instead I place it in the wonderbag and it cultures perfectly!

We use it for yogurt. We put the inoculated milk into glass jars with lids and use an enameled cast iron Dutch oven (with lid) to hold the jars in a warm water bath. We've been careful to have the lid warm as well as the pot before closing it into the Wonderbag. The yogurt is coming out great!

I got the 5 tray and it works for yogurt making. I use 16 oz glass almond butter jars and they fit wonderfully!!

I only use it for almond milk. I strain it using half and then half again, so its easier. That is an option if you think it will not hold 1/2 gallon of yogurt.

I have made yogurt in the InstantPot following their directions and it works fine. I have been very pleased with the results. Soy, almond and coconut yogurt take extra steps because of the nature of the products.

I have not put yogurt in mine but I would think one of those turkey basters might work.

Hi Anne,Thanks for your reply - I checked the yogurt maker and it seems to be over heating - that would explain things!

It's a great pot. I have been using it for a few years for cooking white rice, brown rice and black rice. I don't know about yogurt. Last week I made rice at 1:30pm, turned off the power when it was done. By dinner time around 6pm, the rice was still warm. So in theory, the rice cooker could make yogurt. Hope the information can help you.

I think so. I haven't tried it, but I don't see why it wouldn't work. You make the yogurt separately (or just buy non-dairy yogurt) and pour it into this strainer. Yogurt turns into "Greek yogurt".

I'm not sure if that is the make of my yogurt maker, but that is exactly how I use it. It allows me to make twice as much yogurt. I love it

Interesting question! I love coconut milk, but I've never tried using it for yogurt. Any input?

We have never done it, but I have found a link to making Greek yogurt which is thicker using another similar dehydratorhttp://www.ehow.com/how_8342492_make-yogurt-home-excalibur-dehydrator.html

Yes, I use this yogurt maker to make thick Greek-style coconut milk yogurt all the time. You can find my simple recipe here: http://thenourishinghome.com/2014/03/make-greek-style-yogurt-no-straining-required/ I hope this helps. Blessings, Kelly

I bought this for my daughter who used it to make yogurt, which takes ~ 6 hours. I'm sorry I don't know the answer to your question.

I have not used this colander to strain yogurt, as I have a very fine mesh strainer for that purpose. I think that the holes in the colander are a bit too big, so a little of the yogurt might seep through them in addition to the whey.

I have not used mine for yogurt. I have made jerky and dried fruit and it works great. As far as tray or 9 tray, my 5 tray is great for my husband and I. Sorry I can not be of more help to you.

Bet you're making yogurt! That's what I want it for, anyway. I had a thermometer almost identical to this one, and while the alarm would go off for the upper temp, it wouldn't go off when it reached the lower temp. Did you ever purchase this, Iris, and does it work for what you (I) want?
