Can you use it with a glass container?

Here's an answer that I posted to a similar question: I've used a 2-qt Ball canning jar, which is too tall, but if you cover the Ball jar with a lid, then put a plastic baggie over the whole thing, it works! Alternatively, I've used a barrel-type pickle jar, which fits but only makes 46 oz. at a time. I actually brought the base of the machine with me to the grocery store, to find a pickle jar that would definitely fit.

Never tried. You should find something that fits in there so I have no idea if it could work or not.

I suppose you could, if it was exactly the same size or smaller as the one that comes with the machine. I don't know why you would want to though..

Sorry, I don't know the answer to that one. I've been using it with the original plastic container for a couple years now, at least 2-3 times a week and it's wonderful, so have never tried glass container. If you make a lot of yogurt, (I make over 90oz a week) this product works like a charm and is still running great for me. Simple but works. I love it.

I don't see why not, but I've never had a problem with the plastic container. Plus, you'd have to find a glass one that fit just right inside the heating chamber.

I don't know for sure but the glass is pretty thin. I don't think I would try it.

Yes it can but my review on this was TERRIBLE. The glass finish cracked after one use. I did not see this & used it again & the glass was all through my food. It is a piece of garbage in my opinion.

Not with the lid on...it's just glass otherwise so I don't see why not. I personally haven't done it.

The literature and website say you can...I have not done that... for salads and the like, the container work great...John H.

I have on several occasions. Just be careful not to slide it around. I'm not sure if that would damage the glass top but better safe than sorry.

I would say yes. There is no reason you couldn't use glass as far as I know.

Probably. If you are storing for an emergency, a glass storage container will keep the taste better, as will stainless (and stainless is not breakable). But if it's going to be used from time to time, it ought to be okay.

I suppose you could, but as the front element is really convex, i wouldn't. You are likely to scratch the glass.

I don't know about glass but 5 gal plasitic works fine and as long as the glass is the same height as the plastic ,I do not see why not. If any taller or wider, glass may not work. So far, I like this unit. Had a Primo and the plastic tubes broke and got messed up. Tubes are metal in the Viapur.

Hi, I've not used it that way but I would imagine that it would work. Both the bottle and the dropper are glass.

If you are thinking of just using the plastic for drinking without the glass, no, it won't function that way. It drips at the bottom, I tried it today. It has to have the glass inside the plastic shell.

I do not think a glass bottle would work. It may be too heavy for the system and unbalance it.

I've only used the plastic container. I'd try it to see if it would work. I'd think that you would have to have a glass container that fit snugly into the yogotherm as the plastic container does.

I don't believe you are supposed to use glass bottles (as stated in the instructions). I generally pump into the plastic piece and then transfer it to a glass bottle to store.

I do and it works just fine. Just be aware that you are using a glass top..

I would say no, unless you have tiny hands! The opening is wider than some but not the width of a typical glass. I fill it with hot soapy water, close & shake vigorously to wash it! Hope that helps!
