Preparing for use
Choice of ingredients for making yoghurt
Milk
All recipes are based on using cow’s milk. You can also use sheep’s or goat’s
milk and even vegetable milk such as soy milk, but the rmness of the
yoghurt may vary depending on the type of milk used. The fat content of
the milk inuences the avour, texture and nutritional value of the yoghurt.
The use of whole milk gives a thicker and creamier yoghurt than when you
use semi-skimmed milk. This Philips yoghurt maker preheats the milk to
ensure even rmer yoghurt.
The following milk types are suitable for use in the yoghurt maker:
- Pasteurised milk
This results in creamy yoghurt and produces a small bit of skin on top.
- Long-life sterilised milk or UHT whole milk
This results in rmer yoghurts.
- Raw milk(farm milk)
This needs to be boiled rst. Let it boil for a long time to kill any harmful
bacteria so it is safe to use for preparing yoghurt. Let it cool down to room
temperature before you use it in the appliance.
- Powdered milk
This results in very creamy yoghurts. Follow the usage instructions on the
package of the powdered milk.
Always make sure your ingredients are at room temperature before you put
them in the appliance
Enzymes
All recipes are based on using shop-bought (commercial) plain yoghurt to
ferment the milk.
You can also use:
- Yoghurt from your last production cycle. In this case, make sure you
only repeat this process 6 consecutive times. The amount of active
enzymes in the yoghurt decreases and this results in less thick yoghurt.
After 6 times, you need to use shop-bought yoghurt.
- A dry or freeze-dried enzyme. Follow the usage instructions on the
package of the enzyme.
After 12 hours in the fridge, the yoghurt is optimal for consumption.
The yoghurt can be kept in the fridge for 1 week.
Filling the water tank
Fill the water tank before rst use and as soon as the rell light ashes.
