If you want to make it last a really long time, pack it in a lunch bag with another gel pack.

I haven't tried, but the walls of the larger container are filled with a freezing agent, and do keep things cold for the 4 hours before my daughter eats lunch. I would probably go with a standard, stainless steel thermos container if you need to keep something cold for 6 hours.

We use this powder solely for tea. I am sorry, cant answer the first question. Never made any milk. But I am sure, it depends how thick you like your milk. We leave our can in the fridge. This big container once opened keeps fresh for over 6 mnths in fridge. My husband and I use about 2 tps for each cup of tea. So it lasts longer...definitely does not spoil if refrigerated. Hope I answered your question....glad to be of help.

I havent had much luck keeping my food as cold as it should be for the price. Have had to replace the ice packs and buy my own and some days I use 4 ice packs. I wouldnt think of carrying milk around since my yogurt gets a little cooler than room temp rather quickly.

I've been using this product for months; it stays cold a long time after I use it. So if I put it right back in the freezer, it I think it only takes a couple of hours to freeze up again. Honestly though, I've never timed it because I bought 2 of them (1 to take to work). So if you put it right back when you're done, the time to refreeze is short.

It is not double walled; thus it does not keep liquids cold for prolonge periods of time. Best sugestion would be to put 1/4 full bottle in the freezer over night to prolong the chill.

We make yogurt in our Wonderbag at least three times a week. We eat a lot of yogurt. We use quart sized ball jars filled with properly to temp inoculated milk right into the Wonderbag and cinch it up. We keep it in the bag for at least 8 hours. We were putting hot water in glass jars into the Wonderbag also to keep the temperature but found we didn't need it. We've been doing this for months and it works every time.

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

My yogurt has always formed between three and six hours. I wouldn't know about 8 to 10 hours, because I have never left it in that long.

I have never used it for yogurt, but I know it will keep ice cream cold for 6 hours, so it does retain heat or cold a long time. I also make cheese and a fantastic website is http://www.cheesemaking.com and she has several insulated yogurt makers, that I know work great. Hope that helps.

Not likely I would say it stays cold anywhere from 20-30 min tops then you need to throw it back in the freezer to cool it back down, which also takes about 30 min to make it cold again.

you can store both items but you will want to store cold items in top container. As for coldness yeah it doesn't stay that cold but I've put yogurt in there andit was still somewhat cold.

It does keep the food cold for a few hours, and it does not need to touch the food. I usually put together my son's and husband's lunches around 7:30am and they are still cold at lunchtime (11:00am and 11:30am). I am not sure how cold food will stay longer than 4 hours though.

Yogurt needs time to ferment. You need a yogurt maker or some other product that will allow the yogurt to stay at a constant low temperature for 8-10 hours (soy) or longer (cow milk).

I use this in my daughter's lunch box and nothing in there needs to stay really cold. She eats only a few hours after it is packed. I can tell you that it is not still cold when she gets home about eight hours later. If these were used with the lunch bags that go in the freezer (which don't even require a cold pack) I have no doubt that everything inside would remain cold all day!

I have not made frozen yogurt, but, I don't think it would be that hard to do. Just keep an eye on it in case it freezes faster than ice cream or gelato.

I use it to transport my smoothies from home to work and by the time I open the container for lunch, the smoothie is still frozen hard. So I can imagine that milk will stay cold for lunchtime.

I think the recommendation is 4-6 hrs, from the time the yogurt is heated and the bacteria/culture is added. I have the top tier and I regularly use it, it works fine for making a double batch of yogurt. I only use whole milk to make my yogurt though. People who have told me they use low fat or skim milks often complain the yogurt turns out runny. I believe in the industrial yogurt business they use gelatins and other thickening agents to make low fat yogurts. Happy yogurt making!
