Is it worth the money? We seem to go through a lot of yogurt (DH takes individual fruit on the bottom cups of the store brand to work a few times a week, and I've been buying the 32 oz. containers of Stonyfield for the the girls and I). I tried to make it over the weekend using the jars in the cooler of hot water recipe and it came out very runny and soupy, which makes for a huge mess when my 3 year old eats it (she likes it though!). My 5 yr. old did not like it, and DH only liked it when I strained whey off of it to make it more like Greek yogurt. Would a yogurt maker make the yogurt thicker? Would I be able to put fruit or jam or something on the bottom to make it like DH's fruit on bottom yogurt for him to take to work? Can you also put a wide dish in the warmer and use that instead of the little jars? Or can I use jelly jars in place of the glass ones it comes with if I want to make more?
Kohls.com has the two models of Euro Cuisine for a decent price right now after the extra 30% off and I have $10 of Kohls Cash I'll be able to redeem in a week, so I was thinking of getting one to see if it streamlines the process at all. I read some reviews on Amazon that said you don't need to heat the milk up before putting it into the warmer, has anyone tried that? Also debating if its worth the extra $10 for the automatic shut off or just to go w/ the cheaper version. Would love some input!
