The Cuisinart CYM-100 Electronic Yogurt Maker is a top-of-the-line product for yogurt enthusiasts. With a generous 3.12lb jar capacity (1.5L), this yogurt maker is designed with convenience and ease-of-use in mind. Its built-in cooling system automatically shifts to the perfect chilling temperature, while the simple button controls make it easy to operate. Time controls allow you to set the recommended fermenting time according to the recipe. This yogurt maker is highly rated for its build quality, controls and functionality, value for money, and customer support.
Gary D. Demos: I've been researching everything about yogurt for the past few weeks and after successfully making yogurt in my oven a couple times I decided I like making my own yogurt and it would be worth it for convenience sake to have a machine that made it as easy as possible. I think I've found the right machine here.
Pros:
1. After mixing in your starter, you simply pour in the 1 1/2 qt mix, set the time, and forget about it. After the fermentation time is over, the machine changes to cooling mode so you can really let it go unattended until you're ready to use your yogurt or transfer it to your ref.
2. The tub and lid are pretty much all that needs cleaned after use.
3. The controls are simple to use (for adjusting the fermentation time).
4. It is very quiet. You can hear a small noise while it is heating or cooling but that cycles on and off as the machine is heating or cooling.
5. The fermentation timer will set for up to 24 hrs at 1 hour intervals.
Cons:
1. You cannot control the temperature (if you want to do that). (Added edit: I just checked the temperature of yogurt that had been fermenting for 9 hours and it was 113 degrees.)

The Cuisinart CYM-100 is a compact yogurt incubator with a cooling function. No worries after the incubation period is over, since the machine will automatically enter into a cooling cycle. This allows you to make yogurt without the hassle of traditional methods - set it and go. Well, almost.
I like very thick Greek style yogurt and wanted to be able to make my own with the CYM-100.
After some testings, this is what I have discovered.
HOMEMADE GREEK YOGURT with STORE BOUGHT GREEK YOGURT STARTER
1. This was the first method I tried, since I had not freeze dried starter. For this method, I did the following
a. Heat 5 cups of whole milk to 110f (this is more than the machine's directions suggest, but fits in the container without a problem). I used an instant read thermometer to monitor the temperature. On my GE induction cooktop, I set it to 5 1/2 and stirred until I reached the desired temperature.
b. After reaching the...
