Yogurt of R2D2 - simple and delicious

As a lover of fresh yogurt from organic milk I own such a device, whose design reminds me a bit of R2D2. For over a year it performed faithful service and has not yet disappeared like so many other device in the rear cabinet corner. Previously I had a yoghurt maker with glass. But - what annoys in glass: too inflexible. Usually one finally eats the yogurt is not pure, but with fruit, cereal, etc. However, the barely fit in addition to the 200 ml jars. What could be more than the same can be seen in a big pot the desired portion and continue to process. If one does not have a dishwasher, it's also no fun to constantly wash small glass. Who has time durchschnarcht the German-speaking internet for Einbehälter yogurt machines, will find that it does not exist so much choice.

The yogurt maker is absolutely simple - I just like him. Finally, it should hold only one favorable to the cultures temperature stable. An automatic timer is missing - for 1 star deduction. On the other hand it is very cheap and some yoghurt maker with shutdown playing annoying melodies. I've just gained a timer in the offer of a food discounter. Countdown program to 10 hours and press knobs. Done.
Who supplied the yogurt container from plastic does not appeal, or simply needs a change of vessel that can use thanks to the hemispherical cover relatively flexible own glass containers such as jars or similar.
I make the yogurt the way always so:
1 container (I have a glass, which is actually intended for a so-called Joghurtbox) 1-2 min in the microwave to disinfect.
Pour 2 H- or semi-fresh organic milk together with a 3.5% Actimel (1.6% fat) evenly into the glass. No stirring - Umrührgeräte bring only pure germs. Lid on the glass - cover to yogurt maker. Press Knöpfchen in timer.
3. Allow Customize yogurt still ripen a few hours in the refrigerator
4. Enjoy

Make benefits yogurt itself:

+ Milk also can be transported easily and H-Mich longer stored as a finished yogurt

+ Effective: 1 liter best homemade organic yogurt for about 1.40 Euro 1 bottle Actimel and 1 liter 3.5 Organic UHT milk. Depending on the yogurt-demand worthwhile instead of a fresh Actimels also 2 tablespoons of old yogurt as a starting approach (but works with the same quality no more than 2 times) - then it will be even cheaper as Actimel schweineteuer (4 pieces about 1.60 Euro). Of course, any other natural yoghurt works as an approach. But I like the Actimel quite liked because his crops produce a relatively mild, savory yogurt and it can be poured as a liquid starter culture - that makes things simpler and cleaner again, as no gelöffele.

+ Less waste

Too bad that the yogurt maker is not offered directly through Amazon.com for 8-10 euros.
