TIPS & TRICKS
The best way to heat the milk is in a double boiler, but heating your milk in
the microwave is a possible shortcut. Heat the milk in a glass bowl and make
sure to stir the milk aer each one minute increment.
As a shortcut, instead of heating the milk you can add 7 tablespoons of
powdered milk to the liquid milk and achieve a similar result.
1. TO START
Take the starter yogurt from the refrigerator so that it has time to get closer to
room temperature while you heat the milk.
2. HEAT THE MILK
To achieve the best results, heat the milk in a double boiler or in a glass bowl
on top of a saucepan of boiling water till the milk reaches 185° F (this can also
be done in the microwave, whisking the milk after every one minute increment).
Do not boil the milk.
3. TEMPERATURE CHECK
Let the milk cool to about 100°– 110°F before mixing in the yogurt or starter
culture packet. Do not let it cool below 90° F before adding the starter.
4. MIX IT UP
Use a whisk to mix the starter yogurt or starter culture with the milk until the
consistency is smooth with no lumps remaining.
5. POUR IT IN
Pour the mixture into the small container, put it into the Dash Greek Yogurt
Maker, and place the Main Lid (clear lid) on top.
6. SET THE TIMER
