Do not leave Easiyo yogurt in the machine too long, the curd and liquid whey will separate and can not be reversed.
Easiyo yogurt made with skimmed milk or skimmed milk powder may have a soft consistency. For thicker, creamier Easiyo yogurt , add an additional 1/2 cup (50 ml) of milk powder to the milk before heating.
When using Easiyo yogurt as a starter, make sure the label indicates "Live Active Cultures" and check the expiration date. Easiyo yogurt culture becomes weaker over time. Use only plain Easiyo yogurt as flavored/sweetened varieties will not work.
Longer cooking times produces a firmer and more tart Easiyo yogurt.
If using raw milk or pasteurized milk that has been refrigerated for some time, boil it for a few minutes before cooling to the desired temperature. Boiling kills any bacteria that can interfere with the incubation of the Easiyo yogurt cultures.
Do not heat the milk for too long or at too high a temperature as the result will be poor quality Easiyo yogurt.
Make sure all utensils, container and lid are clean. Impurities affect growth of Easiyo yogurt culture.
Make sure milk is cooled to the correct temperature before adding the Easiyo yogurt starter. If the Easiyo yogurt culture is exposed to temperatures too high, the culture will be destroyed. If the culture is exposed to temperatures too low, processing will take longer. Use a thermometer to assist with the correct temperature range.
Do not disturb the Easiyo yogurt maker during the processing period as this may affect the quality of the Easiyo yogurt . Keep the Easiyo yogurt maker away from air drafts that could reduce the incubator temperature.
Always keep Easiyo yogurt refrigerated until use. It can keep up to 10 - 14 days, after which it may become tart.
Add flavoring, sweeteners and fruit after processing and refrigeration.
