I was looking for a simple recipe for my bread machine, and this is perfect. There are a lot of negative comments here from "experts", and that is unfortunate since you clearly are just trying to help others that are new to yogurt making. I appreciate your video and hope you don't take any of the jerk comments to heart. 😊
Thank you so much for leaving me a positive and wonderful comment. I appreciate you taking the time to write it. You are absolutely right, I just want to help other learn how to make some delicious food to share with family and friends. I don't pay any attention to the negative comments, there's no need of the negativity. My channel is meant to be fun, inspiring and a place to share tips, tricks, ideas, suggestions and enjoy eating!! I hope the yogurt turns out great for you in your bread machine. I will be posting a video of making Donut Dough in the bread machine in a few weeks. Thanks again! Hope you have a great weekend. 🌞🌞🌞
Yes the audio is loud but you got the message across. Thank you! I have the same machine. This shows me that it seems to take a lot of the work i didn't like doing when making yogurt. I have constant acid reflux and good yogurt (i like to sweeten it too) along with aloe vera juice settles the acid. So i loved that this machine makes yogurt. I just don't like stirring the milk for what seems like ages. This fixes that
It comes out less runny if you heat the milk to a boil first. Let it cool to the temperature of a baby’s warm bottle, then whisk your yogurt into about 1/2 cup of milk and stir it into your bread pan. Flawless every time!
Thank you for the tip!! It was my fist time making it. Since then I have learned a lot about making yogurt and received the Instant Pot as a gift from my family. It makes way way better yogurt. 😂 I appreciate you taking the time to leaving me a comment. Tips and tricks are what help make a better cook!
So I was actually wondering about this step! Because pasteurization changes the structure of the protein in the milk (or something) which is what makes it yogurt ready, but if you aren’t working with raw milk do you need to raise the temp? I’m new to yogurt making so I haven’t experimented both ways. Also how much yogurt did it make in the bread maker from your 1 1/2 cups of milk? Just got a bread maker myself and was excited to see the yogurt option! How peculiar haha
Hi Rachel, I'm so sorry I didn't reply to you sooner. I was away for a few weeks. What I've learned is that you can use regular milk in the bread maker, (I like to use lactose free whole milk). I followed my bread maker instructions when I was learning to make it. From there I just played with the recipe until I found something that worked for me. It doesn't make very much since the bread makers are pretty small. Around 2 cups of yogurt. The few things I've learned from making yogurt is, that it will turn out better if you heat up the milk and sugar together to around 180℉ then cool it down to 110℉ and add your live active cultures (spoonful of store bought yogurt that has live active cultures in it) and then let it "cook or ferment" for 9-10 hours. Once it's done fermenting you can stain it and it will get thicker like a Greek yogurt. I think I might try doing a live stream of making yogurt. I've had a lot of questions and it would be a good time to answer those and show the steps to making yogurt a little better. I hope I've answered your questions. Please let me know how it all turns out and what you did.
I'm trying mine for the first time too. I've heard adding milk powder will give it a thicker consistency but I don't have any so I'm going by the basic recipe of 100g greek-style yogurt + 1l semi-skimmed milk. I hope it doesn't turn too runny though if it does that's fine and I'll just mush some strawberries into a puree and add it in as a yogurt drink and use powder next time. Edit: So yeah, the results are in and what I have is over a litre of yogurt drink. Guess I'll go shop for some milk powder and some fresh strawberries.
May i suggest for future videos, when you're talking away from the camera without a mic, to not play a music overlay. It was impossible to hear you in the beginning and end. But thanks for the video! Im gonna try this in my bread maker.😊
Thank you for checking out my video. I realize the music is too loud, I have made an updated video for this. Here is the link to the new video. ua-cam.com/video/HEGsA-bCnR8/v-deo.html
Buy a yoghurt flask. Mine was really cheap from Lakeland.,Basically an insulated flask. The only energy used is to boil the kettle. I add 2 heaped tablespoons of powdered milk to the milk and starter to make a very thick yoghurt.
I've made yogurt in a crock pot with a cooler and ... It's an ordeal which is why I'm trying this bread maker version! 🤣 I never add sugar or flavors until after the straining. Less waste through the strainer and maybe the yogurt will start thicker? Glad it tasted good! ☺️
What I've learned is if I let it cook longer...for 10 hours, I don't get as much run off or waste when I strain it and it's much thicker Greek yogurt. I don't always add sugar either, sometimes I just make it plain and sugar free and it still turns out good. Someone recently posted a comment here about boiling the milk first, then adding sugar, then let it cook (ferment) for 9-10 hours. I have to agree, that helps and makes it better too. Adding sugar and flavoring it completely up to you. Thank you so much for your comment. I enjoyed reading it.
Thank you for this! I recently bought the same bread maker you have, and the yogurt-making instructions that came with it only included the ingredients, nothing about straining it. I was wondering why it came out looking like yogurt-flavored milk! But 8 hours in the bread maker plus two days of straining seems like a lot of work for such a small amount of yogurt. Do you know if the bread maker can handle larger quantities?
Hi! I love this bread maker. It also makes really good pizza dough. 🍕 I know the recipe isn't great in book. I've had to make adjustments. Because the yogurt doesn't rise like bread does, you could definitely add more milk to the bread pan and make a larger amount of yogurt. Yes, straining it takes time but for me, I felt it was worth it.
You're not properly mic'ed and in those places where your voice is low the level of your background music overpowers it. Sort the mic's out or learn to use Audacity to mix your audio. Otherwise, great idea. Replacing my clunker with a new bread machine so I might give this a try.
I know!!! My machine has a yogurt button but no instructions that's why I made this video. I now have an updated version on this video. Hopefully one of the two videos will help you. What would you like to know? I will do my best to answer any questions you have about using the yogurt button.
I am sorry but the whole process is wrong, if you are doing a whole gallon of whole milk you will need 3 spoons of plain yogurt mix it with some milk add it to the milk and wait for 8 hours after that don’t tau h it, put it in the refrigerator for few hours and that’s is. If you are using regular stove top, you’re going to boil the milk after that remove it let it cool just enough to be safe to put your finger in it without burning and add your yogurt and cover it with a blanket and leave it until morning after put it in the refrigerator without disturbing for a few hours and that’s it
Thank you for taking the time to leave a comment. My process isn't wrong, it's just another way of making it. I'm glad you took the time to share another way of how you make yogurt. Thank you again for sharing your process, it's great to see how other people make the same thing.
@@cookingwithnatalka I was born and raised most of my life in Iraq and this was a daily thing that we did, we did a straight from milking the sheep to make our own yogurt, I tried the machine method. It separated, a lot of water from the yogurt in it made it very fluffy, which is not the consistency that the yogurt should be so I really didn’t like the machine.
Here's the link to my new updated yogurt video with better audio.

@@cookingwithnatalka I just found your videos today (looking for a yogurt recipe!). I'm so glad I did! Just in time for donuts. 😁

Thank you for taking the time to watch my video and leaving me a comment. I've never used aloe vera juice before. It's something I may have to try.
Music is too loud. I can hardly hear you...

Thank you for your feed back. I'm working on figuring out better audio.
Can’t hear over the music
Thank you for the feedback, I am trying to be more mindful of how loud my background music is.
Better without the music
Interesting! (Music loud, makes it hard to hear her voice)
Thank you for checking out my video. I realize the music is too loud, I have made an updated video for this. Here is the link to the new video. ua-cam.com/video/HEGsA-bCnR8/v-deo.html

Why play music at the same time as you are talking 😥
The background music ruins the audio
Yes, I'm aware of that. I have made and posted a new updated version of this video. ua-cam.com/video/HEGsA-bCnR8/v-deo.html

You are making me want to try this in my insta pot
That's how Nancy makes hers. I would like to try it in that too.
I just got a kbs machine and there’s literally no instruction book for yogurt setting
Help!
I know!!! My machine has a yogurt button but no instructions that's why I made this video. I now have an updated version on this video. Hopefully one of the two videos will help you. What would you like to know? I will do my best to answer any questions you have about using the yogurt button.
Oh boy that sound is so distracting - I couldn’t hear a thing.
Yes, this video was very hard to hear. I have a newer version of this video where the audio is way better. ua-cam.com/video/HEGsA-bCnR8/v-deo.html
8 hrs and such a small amount of yogurt. Not worth it, but the yogurt was good.
I agree...It doesn't make enough in the bread machine for how long it takes, but it was fun to try and it does taste good.
