Whether need to put the lids on the jars during yoghurt making process?

Lids are only for use after yogurt is done. They do not go on when the jars are in the yogurt maker.

No. You add the lids after the yogurt is finished "cooking"...approximately 8-9 hours.

I don't remember - but I was not happy with the performance - it died within a short period of time.

Nope. The directions say to only put the lids on when they're done and you're putting them in the fridge.

You can use small, Bell Brand, glass canning jars. They are a perfect fit, and I can fit 7 into my yogurt maker.

http://nchfp.uga.edu/how/general/recomm_jars_lids.html the national center for home food preparation (yep, there really is one) recommends following each manufacture's direction on box, but I was taught that keeping them hot in a water bath helps with them not wanting to slip off after placement. As I can be a bit clutzy, I need all the help I can get!

The bottom of the jars are raised on the outside bottom. On the inside, the jar is flat on the bottom . I have the jars that have the dating system lids. Whatever the type, the Euro-Cuisine Yogurt Maker is awesome. Jars are slightly tapered at the bottom. You'll be able to see this on the pictures. :-)

I am wondering about this too. I want to use the Mason jar method, but don't know if I should use a traditional mason jar lid, a new-fangled screw on mason jar lid, or no lid, while the machine is working.Thanks!

When you finish the fermentation process,you can put a regular lid.Its recomended to put in fridge.Eat slowly and enjoy Rafi

You're right, lids should not be boiled. They should be kept in hot (almost boiling) water to soften the seal and make it more pliable before placing on the jar.

I know this is an old question but just saw it. Do you mean that you reuse canning lids because you use them on jars that aren't canned? There are plastic lids that fit the canning jars that might be better for you, if that is what you are talking about.

yes. make sure you have a grate or something like that so the jars are not sitting directly on the bottom of the cooker. that will ensure you don't have any jars crack.

Yes. The machine has a preheat cycle for the empty jars. Instructions are not to sterilize the lids and bands as the canning cycle takes care of that. I love this machine. I've been using it nearly every day for jam or tomatoes.

I don't have to press them to make them seal. I really like my lids, however, you should be aware that when the sides are bumped in the refrigerator, the lid will not hold the seal. My solution is just to leave a little room around the container with the lid.

No, you do not need to use brand new lids. A little tip: feel around the "seal" part of the lid and if it is smooth and not very "tacky" you can either dampen the seal part with a little water or try the lid anyway. This device works really well...I use it every day.

I have a number of these in different sizes. The ones I have are absolutely air tight. The ridges of the molded silicon gasket surrounding the top of the jar provide the flexibility to form a seal with the inner rim of the lid. There should be no need to add anything.

No need to. The lid is just a cap with a plastic window that can melt in the oven. The canister is designed to not spill any of the contents when the lid is removed.

No, in fact the instructions claim the lids are not to be used during cooking process on the stovetop or in the oven. However, I always use mine on the stove top and haven't had any problems. It is recommended to use them after the food has been removed from the stove/oven to keep the food warm and in the fridge for an airtight seal to keep food fresh.

No. Just pack the jar with the items you will be pickling, put the stainless steal cup in and put the lid on. That is all you do.

The lid fit on these jars is hit or miss. I have two and one is airtight, and the other is problematic. Something like cookies you may be OK with though
