Anyone see or know of a site where I may purchase a yogurt maker? One of those kind w/ like 8 1/2 pint jars in a row.....nothing fancy.

I was looking for one the other day when in Seoul.

Didn't see any.

I've seen them at Huckleberry Farms in Jeongja. It's not the type you're looking for, with several jars, rather it has one big tupperware-type jar that fits snugly inside the incubator. It also comes with the starter bacteria. I believe it was about 20,000 won, and the bacteria (there were several different varieties) was 6-7000 won with enough to make more than a few batches of yogurt. Sorry the details are a little fuzzy - I obviously didn't purchase it.

Yeah...I'm looking for one that incubates 6 or 8 small portions...I don't know what you're supposed to do w/ one big jar, though.

Hey,

you don't need a yogurt maker to make yogurt. All you need to do is buy two of those natural yogurt containers, the small ones that you can get from Hannam supermarket or pretty much any one of those markets that carries imports.

then boil some milk (about 2 litters) once the milk has boiled let it cool off for about 30 min. till its luke warm, add the two yogurts to the milk and mix. Then wrap the container holding the mix in a blanket and leave it outside for 12-24 hours.

That's how my mom use to make the best yogurt and I'm almost certain that's how you do it.

If you want I can get a step by step guide to doing it but like I said its that easy. and you only spend about 5,000 won to make two litters worth of yogurt. Then all you have to do is keep the yogurt in the fridge of course.

don't add anything else but those ingredients.
