Another method for yogurt without heating the milk May 1, 2008
This is my third Salton yogurt maker. I use a mixture of 2/3 cup canned (skim) milk, and 1-1/3 cup powdered milk diluted up to 1 quart. It usually "sets" in about 8 hours--I just leave it overnight. I use store yogurt for the starter--some brands work better than others. Safeway's has been a good one. Much easier-- I just mix the milks, about 1-2 tablespoons of starter in a 4 cup measure and dilute up to 4 cups, then pour it in the yogurt maker.
It is a recipe I got years ago.

$100,000 For This Yogurt Maker? April 29, 2008
1 out of 4 found this review helpful

I love my Salton yogurt maker and would love to purchase another one - so I came back to Amazon - I paid $12.99 two months ago. I know that inflation is high , but $12.99 to $100,000 is ridiculous. I'll sell mine for only $50,000 - is anyone is interested - a real bargain.

Easy to use, much better than the old single cup model. April 23, 2008
We used to have the 6 individual cup Salton maker and it worked well but was just a little bit of a hassle for people who want to make a large batch. This 1 qt. version is a good value.

Overheats! Oven light is cheaper and better April 23, 2008
0 out of 2 found this review helpful

With so many people liking it its difficult to beat it. For people who can see the reason, try setting the yogurt in oven (heat off) with light on. Oven light generates enough warmth that far superior that this tiny expensive gizmo that overheats. I have one lying with me but I have switched back to oven light. So unless you live in Antarctica or does not have oven (even non-functional since you don't require it to heat) with light bulb, save your money. And since most people already have ovens with light, its clear I am not representing "special interests". Also the oven method consumes less power (only tiny light bulb), important to those who care for conservation.

As everyone has said, this is a good buy April 18, 2008
Have made several batches of yogurt already. As everyone has said, this product is great, well built, and it works. It actually takes a bit more than 4 cups of milk, which is great. Also, I've found, as I think others have mentioned, that I can fit an old 1 qt plastic yogurt container from the store in the device and it fits and works fine (though not sure if the yogurt container plastic leeches chemicals or not). Anyway, this way I can make a batch and put it directly into the fridge and then make another batch right away. I tried making a batch, with 1% milk, using just my pro-biotic pills (which have all the good bacteria you find in a good yogurt). And it worked pretty well, but was a bit runny, as compared to using the same milk and 1/4 cup yogurt as starter. I've also found that letting the thing go 24 hours doesn't make the yogurt too tangy, for me, but I don't mind tangy yogurt. Having said that, not sure if it really was any thicker at 24 hours than it was at 12 hours. Now trying some soy yogurt made with soy milk. From what I've read, you need some sugar in the milk for the bugs to eat (thus, unsweetened soy will need you to add some sugar, regular soy is sweetened already). Also, soy apparently makes a runnier yogurt, so you need to add a thickener - some have recommended 1T of pectin per 4c or so of milk, so trying that. Also added 1/2 c dried milk, and used some yogurt as the starter. We'll see how it works. I don't like all the sugar in full-strength chocolate soy milk, though you could probably make a great yogurt out of it (or chocolate milk), so I'm trying half unsweetened soy and half chocolate soy, with a T of vanilla and a T of chocolate milk powder as well. Anyway, it's all an experiment, but even the runnier stuff makes a great drink. Oh, one more thing, I did my reading on whey, the "water" that often separates from the yogurt in the fridge (and drips off if you strain the yogurt). The whey is way full of protein and other good stuff. And it tastes like yogurt. I just mixed it with some sugar and drank it - it was good, tasted like kefir, or any other yogurt drink you might buy. Seems a shame to throw it out if you're straining yogurt. This way I don't feel so bad about straining it, since I know I'll drink the whey. Oh, and the strainer everyone recommends works great too, and was easy to rinse, thank God :-)
