I use the thick one Bonsai - that is the one you will want if you are used to Mundella  ;)

The yogurt gods where at my place yesterday I made the best yogurt ever,
Thick and smooth and it was the 1st time with my own starter
It’s amazing how some times it works and other times it’s a flop

how many times can you use the starter?

Funny thing is fundj, I make at least 4-6kg a week and it works every time!! I think it is a case of what I do works for me - thank goodness  :)

My yoghurt making attempts are very hit and miss, I think partly because of the weather - often too cold, despite coddling my Thermoserver in a towel and insulated shopping bag. Can anyone comment on their experience with yoghurt makers? Not only Easiyo, but also on electric yoghurt makers?

I have had mixed success with yoghurt so far despite my best intentions.  Okaaay with HiLo milk, but "stringy" with skim milk, and using two different types of store bought yoghurts as my starters.  I am not giving up on TM yoghurt though ... when I get around to it, I am going to order a "starter" online and see how that works.  Will keep you posted.

I only use full cream milk for yoghurt - I don't know if that would make a difference or not  ???

Funny that since buying my electric yoghurt incubator I haven't had a flop until yesterday. But I changed my technique so will be going back to the original method tomorrow  ;D I love the incubator and the glass jars I bought that fit it perfectly. I  just wish I had one that I could do more than a litre at a time in. I might look into one of those :)
