Best yogurt makers reviews<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Severin JG 3519 Yoghurt Maker<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

A brief overview of key features and specs:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Next up is Severin’s JG 3519 yoghurt maker. It’s a bit bigger, and perhaps a bit more functional when compared to the Amazon Basic model.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This particular yogurt maker is even simpler that the one we’ve just reviewed. It rocks a modest set of features, including a plain on\/off switch, a transparent lid, memory dial, and fourteen glass jars – all you need to get the party started, right?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Exceptional features:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

In truth, the most special thing about this yogurt maker is that nothing’s really “special” per se. The memory dial, the control settings – they’re all very easy to use, so people who value minimalism will surely be fond of the JG 3519.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What we liked about this yogurt maker:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The best thing about the Severin JG 3519 is that people who want to make some yogurt won’t need to put too much effort into it. It’s as straightforward as can be, packing a plain set of features which are incredibly easy to use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What’s more, it comes with 14 glass jars, which is twice as many as the Amazon Basics model. On top of that, it’s available at a bargain price, so we highly encourage you to at least consider it if you’re in the market for the best low cost yogurt makers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What we thought could be improved:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Although this model is remarkably simple and effective, it’s not as dishwasher friendly as our previous pick. There are numerous “blind” spots that are rather hard to reach, so the washing process might feel a bit frustrating at times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pros:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

      Duronic Electric Yoghurt Maker YM2<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

      A brief overview of key features and specs:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

      Next up after the Amazon Basic and the Severin is Duronic’s electric yogurt maker, the YM2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      It features a programmable timer which can be set in intervals up to 24 hours (better than the Amazon Basics by a full 7 hours), there’s a neat little “keep warm” function for the milk heater, and let’s not leave out the super strong 20W motor which powers this unit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Although it does pack a set of premium quality features atop a robust construction, the YM2 is surprisingly lightweight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Exceptional features:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

      There are two things that make this yogurt maker quite special. First, it looks absolutely ravishing and can be counted as a decor piece, not just a fruit-mixing contraption. Secondly, the huge versatility of the timer allows you to make your own yogurt at any time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      What we liked about this yogurt maker:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

      First and foremost, the motor of this unit is just slightly more powerful and efficient than that of most other yogurt makers. It will help you make fresher and better-tasting yogurt, although it’s  slightly slower than others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      The construction of the YM2 is ultra robust and lightweight, but the best thing about it is that it’s still compact enough to take too much of your counter space. On top of everything, it’s in the same price point category as the two yogurt makers we’ve reviewed in the sections above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      What we thought could be improved:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

      Just like we’ve mentioned, this is a rather delicate yogurt maker. You will be able to extract more “cream”, and your yogurt will definitely be more exquisite, but this process takes time – it’s a bit slower than average.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Additionally, the instructions manual doesn\u2019t have any legit recipes, so you’d have to have at least some basic knowledge on how to make yogurts, although of course Google is always your friend for stuff like that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Pros:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
