For delicious, perfect yogurt every time, our EasiYo yogurt sachets contain all the ingredients you need – simply add water. There’s no need to use a bought yogurt as a starter. Can I make EasiYo without the EasiYo Yogurt Maker?

I know you said you’ve used different starters and different milks. The only other thoughts I have are, is your easiyo maker somehow not holding the heat? Or, is it too hot (where in Australia are you?) and the bacteria is dying off? I know a friend of mine who lived in Alice Springs said she used to only make it at night. This streamlined version of EasiYo’s original Yoghurt Maker is more compact, so it fits more easily in your kitchen cupboard but will still produce the same amount of yummy yoghurt. Designed and made in New Zealand, this model also features an easy-grip, recessed handle in the lid, non-slip feet and the insulation layer within the double-walled canister is actually made from thermally-efficient sheep’s wool. I’m going to have to do a bit more research on this, but my first thought is to wonder how fresh your starters are? Chill – Dry the jar and pop it in the fridge to chill before you eat your first delicious helping of home-made yoghurt.We have a Plant Based range launched! This range is made from Coconut & Soya. You can buy online from us here Can I recycle the yogurt sachets? I’m currently trying my second attempt at making without a whole sachet… last time I tried uht milk with yoghurt from a previous batch but no powdered milk (it was sold out!) which was a bit runny for me but my daughter has been enjoying that.. Now I have a batch going with all powdered milk using some of a natural Greek sachet for the culture.. crossing fingers! The temperature of the water you mix the sachet with needs to be 15-20°C. If you live in a warm climate, you may want to chill your tap water in the fridge for a little while to bring it to the correct temperature. What if I forget to take the yogurt out of the yogurt maker in 8-12 hours? Yes, all our jars are safe to use in the dishwasher. They’re also fine in the freezer, which is a great way to keep smaller amounts of yogurt cool ‘til lunchtime. Can I wash my yogurt maker?

Leave your yogurt maker on your kitchen bench and the yogurt will set after 8 - 12 hours (a little longer for our high protein yogurt). Most people simply leave it overnight and wake up to fresh homemade yogurt in the morning. You’re nearly there… before you dig in, chill it in the fridge for a few hours to complete the set. How does the EasiYo Yogurt Maker actually make the yogurt? Our Alternative to Yogurt is called Plant Based because the main ingredients used are plant based ingredients. There are no animal or dairy based ingredients used in the recipe. However, it is manufactured on the same line that produces our dairy yogurts (after extensive cleaning of course). Due to this there is a small chance that there may be traces of dairy present and is not suitable for someone with a milk / dairy allergy, which is why we call it Plant Based. Is EasiYo Plant Based Alternative to Yogurt suitable for vegans? It sure is! All our products are vegetarian friendly. We have also launched a Plant Based range which is Vegan friendly. Can I use a yogurt sachet past its best before date? No, this product is not recommended for people with dairy or lactose allergies or intolerance. While there are no dairy ingredients in the recipe, it’s made on the same production line as our dairy based products so it may contain traces of dairy. Can you make a version with just Coconut and not Soya?

EasiYo Yogurt Makers and Mixes

Add this mix and the rest of the milk to the yoghurt container and shake some more to mix thoroughly. You mention flavouring with vanilla or lemon essence (which sound yum!) so I was wondering if anyone can recommend brands for these – I have a good quality vanilla extract in my cupboard which I’ll try next batch with some added sugar, but have never used a lemon extract/essence.

Our Yogurts all have a shelf life of over 4 months remaining. Sometimes we run discounts on short dated products (less than 4 months), and will indicate this on the product listing so you are aware. Yogurt makers and containers Are the plastic jars and containers safe? Hmm, no. We don’t recommend eating anything after its best before date. I’ve made my yogurt, yum! How will it keep? EasiYo Jars are made from Food Grade plastics, are BPA free and are suitable to withstand boiling water. We do not recommend putting a glass jar in the EasiYo Maker. What is the temperature strip for?

Rewards For Life

What I tend to do is to keep a couple of their flavoured sachets in the cupboard for special treats (for flavours that I haven’t figured out how to make myself), or for when I run out of yoghurt for my starter or have no milk (or milk powder) to spare. Heat 1 litre of milk almost (but not quite) to boiling – look for the point when it is just slightly frothy on top but not yet foaming up (or use a milk thermometer if you have one). Organic milk is of course best, but not essential, and you can use anything from fat free milk to full cream (4%) milk. Heating the milk changes the protein to make it more conducive to making yoghurt with. It also kills off any bacteria that is growing in the milk and might compete with the yoghurt starter culture. The rest of the time I make my yoghurt from scratch, using one of the following methods (usually variation 2, in fact). My kids go through a lot of yoghurt, so making it from scratch saves me a lot of money, plus I like being in control of exactly what goes into it.( Note: I’ve now added a Making Yoghurt at Home FAQ & Troubleshooting guide.) Making yoghurt from scratch using fresh milk Now, simply follow the instructions to make your EasiYo Yogurt, ensuring that the water you mix the yogurt sachet with is 15-20°C. All About Our Yogurt Do you have any dairy free yogurts? You can easily keep a litre or two of UHT milk in the cupboard, without having to clutter up your fridge. It’s probably not as economical as using powdered milk, but still far cheaper than buying ready made yoghurt or Easiyo sachets. And you can buy organic UHT milk at Aldi in Australia (usually). I know you can get organic powdered milk, but I haven’t sourced any yet. Flavouring your Yoghurt
