Different types of milk
The taste of your yogurt may vary slightly according to the kind of milk you use, but your Yogourmet
Multi yogurt maker will always produce excellent yogurt.
Make sure to sterilize any milk you use, by heating it as described in step 1, except UHT (ultra-high-
temperature) milk and Yogourmet skim milk powder, both of which do not require sterilization.
Whole milk contains the most solids and produces a thick, rich and creamy yogurt.
Skim milk, people who are watching their fat intake usually choose this milk. However, when skim
milk is used to make yogurt, something must be added to replace the solids which have been
removed. You need to add milk powder or a packet of unflavoured gelatin. See Table 1 on next page
for quantities and previous page for directions.
Partly skimmed milk (2%) is a good compromise between whole and skim milk. You may need to
add milk powder or a packet of unflavoured gelatin. See Table 1 on next page for quantities and
previous page for directions.
Goat’s milk
UHT shelf stable milk has been specially treated to withstand long periods without refrigeration. It
has already been sterilized and does not need to be sterilized again. It can be used directly from its
hermetically-sealed container. Simply heat to incubation temperature 42–44°C (108–112°F) and
proceed to step 2. You can do this with a casserole or double boiler as suggested in step 1 or also in
the microwave oven in a suitable container other than the inner container of the yogurt maker.
Soy beverage is an interesting choice for people who do not want to eat animal-origin protein. The
consistency of soy beverage yogurt, is not as firm. We suggest using UHT soy beverage which
contains one of the following ingredients: fructose, honey, or malt. These ingredients are needed for
fermentation and you’ll not succeed if none are available in the beverage. We do not recommend
using soy powder, since the texture of the yogurt will not be homogeneous. You’ll find on our website
(www.yogourmet.com/directions) a list of the soy beverages we have tested and recommend.
