Chef's Advice
To master yoghurt making, it is important to have a good
understanding of how milk is transformed into yoghurt.
Requirements
yoghurt is the result of fermented milk. For fermentation
to occur, the milk must be heated to a temperature of
between 40 and 45°C and the thermophilic bacteria
added to the warm milk. The bacteria in fact need this
heat to develop. If it is too hot, they will die. If, by contrast,
the milk is too cold, they will not multiply. The Cuisinart®
yoghurt maker has been designed to ensure that the
perfect conditions are provided. Its role is therefore to
raise and maintain the temperature to a stable level so
that the enzymes can develop.
