would to know if your powered yogurt is organic and the shelf life when mixed??

It is organic and I believe the shelf life after I mixed it was about 3-5 days.

The manufacturer specializes in organic. But I don't ever mix it up straight. I wouldn't eat it as just plain yogurt because of the consistency. I just use it in cooking. If you are looking to mix and eat, you might be happier with a different product. I really like this for cooking and smoothies, but not eating by itself.

Would refrigerate after mixing for about the same time period as normal yogurt. Can't guarantee that it is organic.

It is not organic. This is real yogurt in powdered form. Therefore, when mixed it has the same shelf life of a Dannon or Yoplait cup of yogurt.

I've never tested the temperature during a cycle because I read if the process is interrupted, you could ruin your batch of yogurt. And since my yogurt has turned out every time for years (without fail), I never felt the need to test. I thought it was supposed to stay a consistent 110 degrees. If your yogurt isn't turning out, I would imagine that means it is not working properly. I hope that helps!

I find that I have to let the yogurt cool in the fridge overnight before I pour it in the Donvier. Then I let it set for several hours (no bumping) in the fridge again, depending on the consistency I'm going for. Usually the whey in the bottom is cloudy, but not thick. If it is thick, I just call it "pourable yogurt"! It does make a difference what culture you use as well. I buy a good quality plain yogurt and only use my saved plain greek yogurt about three times before I use the store-bought again.

Ok great! I was concerned because it said it said some yogurt strain in it?

Not sure exactly what you mean by food grade, but its funny you should ask....just this last weekend i experimented with homemade yogurt. When I was younger, we had a crock similar to this, but with a (not airtight) lid. So I thought i would try it. My method is regular milk with active yogurt culture about a 1/4 c. I covered it loosely with press n seal and I put it in the oven (not on!) and let it sit overnight. I didn't have high expectations because the inside is glazed, but it worked! I don't know it this helps! I also should mention that we live in silicon valley and the temperature was in the upper 70s maybe low 80s

sorry I cannot answer this question as the Yogurt maker was for my daughter in law.

I like the taste of my own yogurt much better and I put fresh fruit in it after making it. Not to mention that I KNOW there are no artificial ingredients such as thickeners in it and it is indeed cheaper to make my own. I have made at least 10 batches now. Only once was one jar runny. I use one jar as a starter for the next batch. I love my machine.

Yes, it will. :) You'll want to add some, let it sit and decide if it's thick enough for you before adding more. You -can- get a slight bit of breakdown over time because of the enzymes in the yogurt, but it's very rare and usually homemade yogurt is eaten far before it's a problem.

Excellent question. I am concerned about this and i called this probiotic manufacturer. They said that in buying the vendor should refrigerate. I decided NOT to buy probiotic from anyone anymore unless I know the refrigeration is complete manufacture to selling.

You are right. I make my yogurt in a yogotherm (12 hours) then transfer to the Euro Cuisine for 18 hours. If I am not going to be home from work at the time it should be out, I just dump some of the liquid and it will be fine until I get home, It is in the refrigerator during this time anyway. I then put it in 1/2 pint jars, leaving room to add some Organic Maple syrup (adding a little unsweetened coconut is also good.) It is well worth the time it takes, and the result is such good nutritious yogurt.

I guess it depends on what food you put in it. I put yogurt in mine and it will stay fresh as long as the expiration date on the yogurt.

I do put organic yogurt and couple of ice cubes and bit of salt does taste very good. I love to drink yogurt with water since my childhood. Sometimes I add some fresh mint to change the flavor. I hope this helps you.

I believe I called the producers of the product and they said that was an error. They said they were going to fix it, but obviously have not. They claim it is 100% organic.

I read the bottle, there is nothing on the label to indicate that the veggies are. I believe Harmony House does deal with organic foods; their website may say more. I'll give the advice to sort the portions before rehydrating; there may be stems in the mix. Not many, but one or two and a moisture packet to keep mold from growing.

Not sure exactly but I leave the yogurt in the yogotherm for at least that long and even longer with no harm to the yogurt. In fact the longer, the more firm. I love this and have used it steady.

I have put yogurt in my smoothie many times but never tried it by itself but I am sure it would be fine. Joint Vibrance has an orange juice taste to it so keep that in mind.

Hi...so many Greek yogurts are different. I love the yogurt it makes. It is expensive but does make a whole leter. I tried to make my own powered yogurt but failed. I like this so much because it doesn't use electricity I make it on our boat. It also fits on the door of our small boat fridge. Hope that helps.
