does it taste like greek yogurt?

The flavor will depend on the recipe you use. i use a Dannon plain yogurt as a 'starter', milk and a little sugar (to feed the organism in the yogurt) and it tastes like an unflavored plain Greek yogurt. To get it thick like a Greek yogurt, i drain the excess liquid out through a cheesecloth. FYI, this yogurt maker has no electronics. It works like a thermos where the heat comes from hot water that is added to the outside container. The yogurt is in the inner container.

Actually greek yogurt is a thick product. You can achieve with straining liquid. Even a regular strainer lined to allow the liquid to drain is what you should do.

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.

If you get the greek yogurt packet, yes it does. I like their kits best . If you want it real thick drain it through cheese cloth .

No but you can buy the Euro Cuisine Yogurt and Greek Yogurt maker model YM360 or YM460 with a 2 qt glass jar and you can make up to 2qt of yogurt

No, it does not taste like licorice. Have to add fruit to make it taste good. It is good and I like that it is not sweet.

No, it doesn't have a strong taste. I mix mine in yogurt or cottage cheese but I think milk would be fine. Water, hmmm not sure. I'm on my 4th bag and have noticed a significant difference in how I feel and haven't been sick this season. To good health!

Yes. Greek olive oil tastes exceptionally good. Italian olive oil tastes ok. I don't remember Spanish olive oil right now.

I think it will be fine. I mixed mine with some strawberries and yogurt and a little water and it was good. You might have to play with the proportions a bit to get the taste and consistency right. Hope it's good!

Definitely not flavored. It also doesn't mix well in water for me. I heard someone else say they put it in a spoonful of yogurt to eat it instead, but I haven't tried it yet.

It does not taste like butter, more like a butterscotch. I think it was a bit to sweet for me as it has artificial sweeteners. It is most like a cream soda flavor.

From what I've read, Greek yogurt is higher in protein, lower in carbs and sugar (lactose), but higher in fat than regular yogurt. I believe much of the probiotics are in the whey, so I still try to use the whey after using this strainer. I've used whey 1:1 as a replacement for milk in pancakes and waffles.

I bought this for my mom. She says her yogurt tastes slightly better, really, it is much cheaper than buying yogurt. However, she eats A LOT of yogurt. she also uses it in place of sour cream.

Yes, but it is very thin that way and doesn't seem to keep me satiated. If I use water, I add plain low fat yogurt to thicken it up a bit and sweet leaf stevia to help sweeten the plain yogurt. I'll switch it up a bit sometimes adding different berry blends. My preferential method is to mix with unsweetened almond milk and sometimes adding different berry blends.

Yoghurt cheese is just another name for greek yoghurt, so yes, that is exactly what this is for.

Yes. I have tried their recipe for yogurt (120 degrees for 1 hr after that 18 hrs at 86 degrees). I make a gallon of yogurt using 1/2 gallon of organic whole milk and 1/2 gallon of organic half and half. My yogurt is fabulous. It is sweet and custard like, so creamy. I like Greek yogurt so I strain some to the consistency I like. I tried using less time but the yogurt came out lumpy with lots of whey. Also great for proofing bread.

No! I thought you could use it as that, but it is really just like an instant yogurt and doesn't even taste that good. Just get the yogurt starter in the boxes...I know they are expensive, but better than wasting money on this product. If you want to save money just use some of your last batch to get the next one started.
