Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Girmi JC70 Yogurt Maker
Customer Review: Pretty Good!
Summary: 4 Stars
Like many other reviewers, I purchased this machine after reading "French Women Don't Get Fat". I am an infomercial's dream client, as I am a sucker for all things shiny and new. I am willing to try everything once if it means I can have an extra 12 hours per day, be cellulite-free, grow thicker, longer hair, live to be 120, etc (you get the picture).
Truth be told, I was not sure whether to purchase this one or the one by Euro Cuisine (although made by the same company) because they were the same price and both had great reviews. Ultimately, I chose the Girmi version because the "retail" for this one was $50, marked down to $29.99 versus the retail of $40 for the Euro marked down to $29.99 so I thought I was getting a better value.
This machine came 2 days after I ordered it online, via Amazon's free shipping and made my first batch last night. This is really easy to use. The included directions are so simple that you think they must have missed something. I used a quart of cold, organic skim milk and cold organic fat-free plain yogurt for my first batch. I mixed them together in a pitcher as recommended by another review as it made it easier to pour into the jars. I then put the lid on and "cooked" it for 12 hours (with the believe that since I used skim milk and fat free yogurt I would need the full 12 hours to get the desired texture). I refrigerated the cooked yogurt for about 6 hours before I tried and it is not bad. The next batch I will probably warm the milk first before putting in the jars since another reviewer said it made for a thicker yogurt.
The only con to this machine that I found it there is no light or anything to indicate that the machine is on. The machine does not get very warm so I had to keep checking to make sure that it was working. It was not until an hour later that I could tell that it was doing something (the underside of the machine was a little warm).
I also wished that the instructions included a few recipes. The ones provided are a little vague so it is up to you to create your own versions.
Overall - I think this a great machine. Definitely recommend.
