Can I mix this in with Greek Yogurt?

I don't see why not. We use ours in smoothies. I don't particularly care for the flavour of the whey - I can't taste it when I blend it with other things.

Yes but in my opinion, it didnt taste very good. I use mine in smoothies(with greek yogurt) and its excellent.

I can think of no reason you could not. It would blend we'll & I find it to not have a strong flavor. Hope this helps.

I mix it with organic yogurt, water and ice cubes. Sometimes I put some mint and cucumber to make it more tasty. I hope this helps you.

If you use the Greek mix the answer is yes. And the milk mix is a must use the full fat.

I added fruit to the jar before putting the yogurt in and that seemed to work. Otherwise you could just add it at the end.

To make Greek Yogurt will need need to use a cheese strainer or make your own type of strainer by putting about 4 coffee filters in a colander and pouring the yogurt into it. Let it set overnight in the refrig and you should be good to go. Greek yogurt is thick due to the excess whey being removed.

You can mix it with their food. I use yogurt most of the time, but you can use anything that will cover the test.

You would need to strain the yogurt with either cheesecloth or a Cuisipro Donvier Yogurt Cheese Maker which I use.My review for this product has my recipe in it and you can strain that yogurt for fage or greek yogurt.

No. It simply grinds the fruit to an ice cream texture. I use a spoon to mix greek yogurt for protein. I'm sure you can blend it up as well.

I agree with you. It should be three times bigger. However, yogurt takes a long time to create and Greek yogurt even longer. You have to decide if it's worth the trouble or keep looking for a way to make bigger batches. I have read that some people make yogurt in slow cookers. But then, you need a really big strainer for Greek yogurt.

All Greek yogurt is is yogurt that has more of the whey removed from it when it is yogurt. However, if you are looking for a thicker richer version of yogurt, you can use 1/2 half & half & 1/2 regular milk to make a very thick Greek yogurt like consistency in this machine. This is what I use & do. Heavy cream makes it more watery, so dont try that thinking it will make it thicker. It wont.

No you don't need to use Yogourmet starter packets! You can try other starter packets from other companies. However it is much cheaper to buy plain greek yogurt, like Fage'. Use it as you would with the starter packets.

I store my yogurt in mason jars. Determine how many cups your container will hold and that will be the amount of milk you will use to make your yogurt. When making Greek yogurt in the strainer it will reduce the amount by half. I can fill up a small mason jar with the Greek yogurt. I found I can safely set the mason jar in the yogurt maker without damage to the jar. That makes it easy to just put in the refrigerator. If I want a larger amount then I use the white container that came with the unit.

You can use any plain yogurt: fat-free, full fat, 2%, greek yogurt, whatever. I would not use a flavored yogurt, but that may work. I usually use as the starter the end of the last batch of yogurt that I made. But that loses potency after a period of time, I find. When that happens, I either cut that 50/50 with a store bought yogurt or I just use 100% of the store bought as the starter. I have used the packaged starter that came with my machine. Good luck.

Yes, I use this yogurt maker to make thick Greek-style coconut milk yogurt all the time. You can find my simple recipe here: http://thenourishinghome.com/2014/03/make-greek-style-yogurt-no-straining-required/ I hope this helps. Blessings, Kelly

Yes! To make greek style, you first need to make regular yogurt in the yogurt maker. When it's done, let it cool, then strain it for several hours through a coffee filter or cheese cloth and a fine mesh strainer to remove the whey. This creates thick, rich greek style yogurt.

Yes. I have tried their recipe for yogurt (120 degrees for 1 hr after that 18 hrs at 86 degrees). I make a gallon of yogurt using 1/2 gallon of organic whole milk and 1/2 gallon of organic half and half. My yogurt is fabulous. It is sweet and custard like, so creamy. I like Greek yogurt so I strain some to the consistency I like. I tried using less time but the yogurt came out lumpy with lots of whey. Also great for proofing bread.

I can't say for sure that it will dissolve well in plain yogurt. I never used it that way. I always use it for a smoothie which I mix in a blender. It tastes great though.
