Pour it into the yoghurt maker along with a little natural live yoghurt to start the fermentation process. Set the time and temperature using the digital controls. A large quantity of fresh yoghurt is ready in eight hours, plus you can experiment with timings to produce a thicker batch. Accessories are included so you can strain the yoghurt to produce a Greek-style consistency or make soft cheese by adding a squeeze of lemon.

Customer review: "As I only wanted to do standard or Greek yogurt I decided on the VonChef as it has a set temperature. So far, I have made yogurt from goats milk, semi skimmed UHT, and even BoB (best of both) skimmed milk. Each one has been superb. The easiest was using the UHT milk, which didn’t have to be scalded. I just warmed the milk, 100ml of live yogurt from supermarket, and two tablespoons of dried semi skimmed milk powder."
