Device for home preparation of probiotic and yogurt - Volcano Probiotic Yogurtmaker

Easy and safe to use, this device is used to prepare homemade yogurt and probiotic milk.

Yogurt is one of the most used healthy foods by Bulgarians and other peoples of the Balkan Peninsula. The millennial tradition is associated with the exceptional benefits of consuming this product, mainly related to the presence of beneficial probiotic cultures that have a beneficial effect on the gastrointestinal tract and general immunity. A number of studies prove the connection between the use of quality yogurt and slowing down the aging process and prolonging life in people. Today, its benefits are even greater, given the widespread use of antibiotics that destroy the beneficial microflora in the human body.

Although it is little known, there is a difference between regular and probiotic yogurt. While both types contain the so-called starter cultures (causing the start of fermentation), then probiotic milk also contains other beneficial strains that remain active until the end of the shelf life of probiotic milk, thus significantly increasing its biological strength and activity. Preparing homemade yogurt using a Dr. Nature Probiotic Maximus capsule gives a 100% guarantee of obtaining probiotic yogurt with maximum biological activity and fantastic quality and taste.

2. PREPARATION OF SOURDOUGH or PROBIOTIC MILK

1. Preparation of the device:
Carefully wash the stainless steel bowl and its lid with warm water and make sure that there is no dirt that could compromise the fermentation process. It is advisable to wash and sanitize all other containers you handle, as well as your hands.

Be careful not to get the housing of the device wet!

2. Selection of raw materials and starter cultures
To prepare sourdough or probiotic milk, you can use different raw materials, and it is important to be convinced of their quality (homemade, farm, and also high-quality pasteurized fresh milk from the store, as well as soy milk, can be fermented). For starter you can use:

1 capsule Probiotic Maximus (open 1 capsule and pour the contents without the shell into the fresh milk);
starter for yogurt (according to the instructions);
from already made yogurt, or high-quality yogurt from the store, natural without additives (50 g yogurt / per 1 liter of fresh milk).

3.Preparation of sourdough or probiotic milk
Boil 1 liter of milk (over 90°)
Cool the milk to 40-45° (if you don't have a thermometer, you can test with your finger, it should be hot, but tolerable temperature for your finger)
Pour about 50-100 ml of fresh milk into a small container and add the selected starter.
Stir well until completely dissolved and mix with the boiled and cooled milk already to 40-45°.
Pour the contents into the bowl of the device and close tightly with the small lid, then place the bowl with the milk in the device and close with the large lid. Both lids must be kept closed during the entire preparation time to prevent contamination.
Plug the device into the power supply and it starts working immediately.
The fermentation time is usually between 7 and 12 hours.

4. Unplug the appliance after the fermentation time has passed.

Remove the bowl with the finished milk and place it in the refrigerator (with the small lid, without stirring).

3. STORAGE

You can consume the finished yogurt after at least 4-5 hours in the refrigerator. We recommend consuming it within 3 days of its preparation to enjoy the maximum activity of the probiotic bacteria. The milk is suitable for use and storage for up to 10 days in the refrigerator.

Note:
A. After it is fermented, the yogurt should be milky white or light yellow, without large pores, unpleasant odor and taste. If the fermented milk is not smooth and has bubbles and mold, it is contaminated with various bacteria and is unfit for consumption.
B. If the milk is left to ferment for a longer period of time, it is normal for it to release a white-yellow sour liquid (zwick), which is rich in lactic acid and vitamin B. The zwick can be drunk alone or mixed with milk.
C. The degree of fermentation directly affects the taste of the yogurt, so it is recommended to control the preparation time within 7-8 hours in summer and 10-12 hours in winter (if the room is cool).
D. If the appliance is not turned off after these 12 hours, it is possible that the milk will have a more sour taste and a sour liquid (zwick) will appear.
E. After the milk has cooled down well, you can move it to another container with a lid.
F. If after the preparation process of 7-12 hours, the milk has not soured and there is no mold or unpleasant smell and taste, you can cool it and consume it in the next 2-3 days as a milk-sour drink. The most common reasons for this are poor-quality fresh milk, incorrect temperature during fermentation or contamination of the container.
G. If you use yogurt for fermentation, you can use the old yogurt as a fermentation starter up to 3 times in a row, due to bacterial degeneration.
