Switching The Appliance On And Off; Taking Out The Ready Yogurt - Rommelsbacher JG 40 Mode D'emploi

• Yogurt ferment:
When using ferment from the health food shop, observe to get a fresh one and to use it according to its
specific manual.
NOTE: Following to that you can use your home made yogurt for starting a new culture. Take the last
portion jar (150 ml) to make a new mixture. In case you take natural yogurt as starter, you can repeat
this procedure for 4 - 6 times. Using ferment as a starter, this procedure can be repeated up to 20 times.
After that a new starter culture should be used.
With this appliance in total up to 1.2 litres of milk mixture can be processed:
• Fill the milk (1 litre) in a sufficiently sized vessel.
• Add the desired starter culture (see above) and stir it thoroughly until it has mixed evenly. Make sure
the temperatures of starter culture and milk are similar.
• Then cautiously pour the mixture into the portion jars. Do not overfill the jars.
• It is also possible to prepare the mixture directly in the portion jars. Give 1-2 teaspoons of yogurt into
each jar, then fill it up with milk and stir thoroughly.
