ENGLISH Yogurt Making Process: 1. Take the starter yogurt from the refrigerator so that it has time to get closer to room temperature while you heat the milk. 2. Place the amount of milk desired in the removable cooking pot. Leave the lid off and heat the milk to 180-185°F by pressing the SLOW COOK LOW function. Use a thermometer to make sure that proper temperature has been reached. 3. Remove the removable cooking pot from heat and allow the milk to cool to lukewarm (100°F-110°F). To accelerate the cooling down process, place the removable cooking pot in cold water. Do not let it cool below 90°F. 4. Stir in the plain yogurt or starter culture packet and use a silicone whisk to mix it with the milk until the consistency is smooth with no lumps remaining. Do NOT use a metal whisk as it will scratch the non-stick surface of the removable cooking pot. 5. Place the lid on the Multi-cooker; align the handle with the condensation collector (open lock symbol), and turn it counterclockwise until the locking pin clicks into place. Turn the pressure regulator knob to STEAM when using the yogurt program. Press the YOGURT button. The preset cooking time is 8 hours. Depending on the flavor of yogurt you like best, you can choose how long to cook the yogurt for by pressing the + or - button once for each additional half hour or to decrease by a half hour. To fast advance, hold the button down until you reach the desired cooking time. The longest cooking time is 24 hours. The preparation time impacts the yogurt taste. With longer cooking time, the yogurt will have a more tart flavor. With shorter time, the yogurt will have a milder flavor. 6. Press the START/STOP button to begin the yogurt function. The unit will begin to count down in 1 minute increments once the correct temperature has been reached. 7. When the yogurt is ready, remove the lid. There may be some yellowish liquid, whey, on top of the yogurt. This is normal, whey contains nutrients and protein. Mix it back into the yogurt. 8. If you prefer regular yogurt, cover and place in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 hours before serving, or until yogurt cools down. If you prefer making Greek yogurt, please refer to page 22. NOTE: THE MULTI-COOKER SHOULD REMAIN PERFECTLY STILL DURING THE COOKING PROCESS. DO NOT MOVE THE APPLIANCE; DO NOT REMOVE THE REMOVABLE COOKING POT OR THE LID AS THIS WILL AFFECT THE FIRMNESS OF THE YOGURT. DO NOT ADD ANY FLAVORING BEFORE COMPLETING THE YOGURT MAKING PROCESS. Yogurt Making in Glass Jars: 1. Take the starter yogurt from the refrigerator so that it has time to get closer to room temperature while you heat the milk. 20
