Despite the fact that now you can buy yogurts with any taste in the store, people often prefer to cook them at home. A special device - a yogurt maker - allows you to make sour-milk products, the taste and usefulness of which often exceed the similar characteristics of factory products.

How does a yogurt maker work?
The principle of operation of the yogurt maker is simple: this device maintains the temperature necessary for the development of sour milk bacteria - about 40 degrees. This allows you to achieve the desired result and prepare a good product. If the temperature is too low or too high, the process of bacterial activity will be stopped.
Of course, products cooked in a yogurt maker have an expiration date. Many cups in such devices are equipped with a convenient mechanism for setting the production date.
Each yogurt maker is complemented by a timer. Filling the cups with milk and special leaven in the right proportions, you need to turn on the device and set the required time. The result will depend on the type of leaven and the cooking time. Using a yogurt maker, you can thus cook not only yogurt, but also kefir, sour cream, ice cream, cottage cheese. It is very important to immediately place the cups in the refrigerator immediately after preparing the product. If this is not done, the growth of sour milk bacteria will continue, and the food will be spoiled.
