Easiyo Yogurt Maker

I’ve had an older easiyo for many years and used to find it convenient and economic. I have since sent it to the op shop where I have seen lots of friends to keep it company! The concept is great but the cost of the ready made satchels of culture etc is ridiculously high and comparable to buying a tub of ready made yoghurt at the supermarket. There is no choice or competition for these satchels. Research shows that these satchels merely contain powdered culture and powdered milk. It is possible to buy powdered culture but using some quality rea...

I feel that the milk powder in the sachets is of very poor quality. I have to add 100g of my own milk powder to a whole sachet to get a professional 5 star result !

I have recently started making my own yoghurt again using Easiyo. I purchased the new version of the 1 kilo jar which is a better shape, its much easier to get all of the yoghurt out of the bottom. I've had mixed results of the yoghurt, some has been perfect but some have been a bit runny, maybe its the cold weather, will try again with the water being a bit warmer. It really is not much cheaper to make your own but it is really convenient to be able to have fresh yoghurt made at home with all the health benefits to it. The flavours I have tried have been very nice.

Hi I've decided to try this product and the flavors are yummy as I mix it up and place it in the easiyo jug with hot water as directed it goes in at 8:00pm and I take it out at 8:30am when I get home after work and it's runny I place it in the fridge, but no change my daughter and I say it's a milkshake instead. Please help is their something else I can try I'd rather make this instead of buying yoghurt.

I purchased this because my 1 year was going through so much yoghurt and it was getting so expensive. I like the idea of making it myself. First of all I used the Passionfruit flavoured Greek satchet, it set lovely but when I transferred it to another container to feed to my daughter it went really runny. I thought that it may of been the fact that it was Passionfruit and it changed the consistency of the Greek yoghurt so I tried a plain Greek yoghurt satchet and the same thing happened. When serving from the contained that it's made in its a l...

used for 8 months no problems .last 3 batches did not set at all.as runny as water tried every thing
have got the old white insulated container.i had to re boil water and do it again for 8 hours so it would set
not impressed must be a product problem.

I'm from the UK and I'm having similar problems with not setting. First 5 batches were fine but the last 2 and possibly 3 are looking like not setting. Perhaps it should be called a milkshake maker?
Never experienced the old style one but reading on numerous sites many seem to think the new one is not as good.
Perhaps EasiYo need to re-think and go back to what worked. I personally feel the new maker is not as fully insulated in some way and so the boiling water cools down too much.

I have had an easiyo for years but over the last year the product is failing just not setting is anyone else having problems with any of the batches i have followed what is required so only can assume its the products still have two more packets left so going to try them but wont be happy if they fail as well pam
It has been easy to use.
Packets are not setting.

I follow the recipe to a tee and has only worked about 2 times out of 7. Yoghurt tastes nice but consistency is not always perfect - sometimes gluey, sometimes runny like drinking yoghurt. Someone pointed out to me that the yoghurt sachets might not be stored properly at some supermarkets which could affect how they work out??? Not sure if that is true.
Tastes good, at the cheaper end of the scale
Can find other supermarket yoghurts that are just as cheap. Doesn't always work!!!

Although it does taste like cheap fake ice cream, I played around with a batch and added crushed fruit, the ice cream is greatly improved, now we make up strawberry, raspberry, mango, banana, coffee and chocolate.
Haven't used the yogurt's as yet only the ice cream, living on a rural property in QLD, buying ice cream is always a risk its a long trip home, and ice cream doesn't travel well, even in an ice cooler, found this product when looking for an ice cream machine in Big W, works well and very easy to make.
Overall it tastes like very cheap fake ice cream.

I bought this with the hope that I could make nice fresh yoghurt at home, but I find the texture kind of odd and gluey compared to store bought yoghurt. I had also planned to save some money, but I can often find nice yoghurt at the supermarket for around the same price or only marginally more.

My kids really like it though so I use it occasionally for them. I do like the drikning yoghurts, but as I stated that are difficult to find and I don't want to have to order them online.
It makes fresh yoghurt.
It's easy.
I don't like the yoghurt.
The drinking yoghurts are hard to find.

a great at home youghurt maker that is simple and easy to use. available yoghurt flavours is great and i like being able to buy low fat variety as well
an easy to use at home youghurt making product that is readily available at supermarkets and depratments stores, i got mine from kmart after a friend recommended it.simply mix the sachet you have chosen with water as directed and place into the insulated container and come morning your fresh yoghurt is ready to eat...never leaving you short again. my kids enjoyed it and found it simple enough to make their own, comes in a variety of flavours including low fat for the diet conscious.
i never had enough little containers and found once the novelty wore off it wasnt used as often
