Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

One of the main reasons I bought this unit was to make yogurt in glass jars instead of in plastic. I even ordered extra jars. But after getting tired very quickly of cleaning these little jars, I set them all aside and just use a Pryrex 1.75 quart glass bowl (the kind you can buy in many supermarkets) and just use it. It is so much more convenient. I just fill it almost to the top with milk or soy milk to measure, pour it into a pot to boil, and then after it cools a bit, pour it back into the Pyrex bowl, put the rubber cover on the bowl, and place that into the yogurt maker without the plastic lid. 10-12 hours later, I have a big bowl (about a quart and a half) of yogurt and a very fast easy cleanup. The Pyrex bowl fits perfectly in the maker, and then I put the lid on it and store it in the fridge. I know the little jars allow you to take one to work, but believe me, it isn't worth the cleanup effort. That's why I gave this four stars - it makes yogurt fast and easy, but the little jars are tedious to keep clean, so if you're like me, you'll much prefer to just use a large glass bowl that fits in the machine.
