VonShef Digital Yoghurt Maker with 7 Jars

This yoghurt maker is elegant and easy to use. It is simple to change the length of incubation time using the control button on the front. The indicator clearly shows how much time remains to the nearest hour, which is adequate. It is set to one temperature only which seems to maintain the culture at 40 to 42 degrees Celsius...ideal for yoghurt. Absolutely no problems with using this to make great yoghurt. I have made my yoghurt using whole milk with Yeo Valley natural yoghurt as a starter and also using yoghurt from a previous batch as starter with equally successful results. I have noticed that some reviewers failed to get their yoghurt to set. This has not been my experience. A very good set is achieved after 10 hours. Indeed, eight hours seems to be enough. I can only conclude that some of the reviewers having poor results did not use proper live yoghurt as starter. They should look carefully at the label for the words "live culture" and a list of the bacteria. If this is not mentioned then you should look for another brand. The other possibility is that they did not cool their milk sufficiently ( to about 45C) before adding starter as too much heat will kill the culture. UHT milk can also be used, avoiding the sterilisation step. Instructions provided are adequate for the machine but probably don't give enough detail on quantities for people new to yoghurt making. You need: 1150ml milk 80ml live yoghurt as starter Ensure jars are well washed and rinsed to remove detergent. Dry in oven to sterilise or upside down in air. Do NOT put plastic lids in the oven or they will melt! The bottom line is that this is a great yoghurt maker. I can highly recommend it. Happy yoghurt making!

Wonderful yogurt maker! Excellent price and quality, convenient and easy to use. I had a similar one for many years, so I was looking for just this one. Very convenient!Easy to clean and maintain. It so happened that my kitchen utensils are black, so the yogurt maker fit into the "family" perfectly.

I have to start by saying thank you to the wonderful customer service team,my local delivery service lost the parcel, it happens very often in my area. They promptly sent another one.Communication was excellent. Later on I got the first one than they sent and I just sent it back.I have made my first bact of yogurt and while is not perfect,due to maybe leaving it for too long it tastes nice. The yogurt maker is easy to use and clean and it is nt very big so I won't take a lot of space in your kitchen.

This yoghurt maker is easy to use and I like the individual containers. I wish it didn't just show hours though! The addition of minutes to the display would make it much easier to know how long it has been on (as opposed to somewhere within a 60-minute range). We like to experiment with different ingredients and changing the "on" time is an obvious thing to play with, plus knowing how long there is left.

It’s a great product for making yoghurt at home. After using it for a few months, we bought four more of the same item as Christmas gifts for friends. I highly recommend this product to everyone. If you use whole milk and set it for 12 hours, you’ll get delicious Greek-style yoghurt.

The product works exactly as described. I use it to make yogurt and am very satisfied with its performance. I’d definitely recommend it. It can hold around 1.5 liters, though I usually make 1 liter at a time. The multiple small jars are a great idea — they help prevent oxidation, so only the opened jar is exposed and the others stay fresh longer. However, if you have a larger family and need a higher daily quantity, it might be a bit inconvenient to scoop from multiple jars.

l brought this for my sister for Christmas , and she just love it she says it so easy to use and the yogurts are just so delicious.

This machine works well for making yoghurt (which it’s supposed to do!) I love the glass jars (rather than a plastic insert you get in some of the bigger yoghurt makers!) plastic around food is not cool. Especially if you are going to the trouble of making yoghurt yourself. I had no problems like other reviewers saying that the yoghurt didn’t set - quite the opposite it set really well (pretty solid and perfect if you like a thick yoghurt!) just to be specific this is on the 10 hour timer and I live in the uk, it’s Autumn here so fairly average temp about 19C in our house. Product looks good, is simple and easy enough to clean but I’ve left off one star as I find the small pots quite annoying - I sterilise them before use in a UVC steriliser and I’d rather pop one glass jar in than 7 small ones and lids but that’s just my preference - I make bravo yoghurt for my daughters health (a special probiotic yoghurt for a chronic health condition!) she uses varying amounts every day (meaning a large glass jar makes more sense - I can just dose out however much I need!) and my daughter also refuses to eat the yogurt that was made in the yoghurt maker as it was so thick and lumpy (kids can be fussy!) so now I’m trying a large mason jar in a thermos set up and seeing if that makes more sense for us. Leaving bowls of yoghurt in the oven overnight just doesn’t work in our house - somebody always forgets it’s in there and turns the oven on! 🥴
