Yogurt Making in Glass Jars:
1. Take the starter yogurt from the refrigerator so that it has time to get closer to
room temperature while you heat the milk.
2. When you heat the milk in glass jars, add 1 cup of water into the removable
cooking pot, then insert a yogurt making rack and place your glass jars on
top of the rack. Place the lid on the Multi-cooker; align the protruding pin
on the handle with the condensation collector (open lock symbol), and turn
it counterclockwise until the locking pin clicks into place. Turn the pressure
regulator knob to STEAM. Heat the milk to 180°F-185°F by pressing the
YOGURT function ONCE. Once the process is over, use the Natural Release
Method to release the steam. Always use a thermometer to make sure that
proper temperature has been reached.
3. The second step after heating the milk is allowing the milk to cool to lukewarm
(100-110°F). To accelerate the cooling down process, take out the jars with
the help of a jar lifter. Do not let it cool below 90°F. Use a thermometer to
make sure that proper temperature has been reached.
4. Stir in the plain yogurt with live active culture and use a spoon to mix it with
the milk until the consistency is smooth with no lumps remaining.
5. Place the lid on the Multi-Cooker; align the protruding pin on the handle with
the condensation collector (open lock symbol), and turn it counterclockwise
until the locking pin clicks into place. Turn the pressure regulator knob to
STEAM. Press the YOGURT function TWICE. The preset cooking time is
8 hours. Depending on the flavor of yogurt you like best, you can choose
how long to cook the yogurt for by pressing the + or – button once for each
additional half hour or to decrease by a half hour. To fast advance, hold the
button down until you reach the desired cooking time. The longest cooking
time is 24 hours. The preparation time impacts the yogurt taste. With longer
cooking time, the yogurt will have a more tart flavor. With shorter time, the
yogurt will have a milder flavor.
6. Press the START/STOP button to begin the yogurt function. The display will
show: YGRT and cooking time alternatively. The unit will begin to count down
in minutes once the correct temperature has been reached. When the cooking
time is up, the unit will beep and it will turn to standby mode.
7. When the yogurt is ready, remove the lid. There may be some yellowish
liquid, whey, on top of the yogurt. This is normal, whey contains nutrients and
protein. Mix it back into the yogurt.
8. If you prefer regular yogurt, cover and place in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 hours
before serving, or until yogurt cools. If you prefer making Greek yogurt, please
refer to page 22.
Helpful Hints and Tips:
• The probiotics and live active cultures are strongest when the yogurt is fresh.
For the best results, only repeat the same starter yogurt 2 times max. After a
few days, the probiotics in the previous batch can weaken and the yogurt may
contain a liquid consistency.
• You may choose to make flavored yogurt and add sugar, honey, flavorings, fruit,
or other ingredients to taste just prior to eating.
