For some, a standard home yogurt maker is not enough and that is where commercial yogurt makers come into play. Perhaps you would like to launch your own homemade yogurt shop where there would be more demand, or maybe you are thinking about creating your very own brand or product to sell and distribute.

The key question to ask yourself is this: How Much Do You Need to Make?

The standard yogurt machine is not intended for commercial use or producing larger quantities. Most machines only produce a batch that is equivalent to about two cups – which for some people would only last a day or so. Others can make up to six cups such as the Cuisipro Donvier Electric Yogurt Maker – but again, this isn’t going to make a huge amount!

There are a few solutions you can try that might be helpful for you:

1. Get the Cuisipro AND Extra Jars: If you need a commercial machine for your own personal use, such as making it for a shop or for entertaining family and friends, or maybe even for just creating a nice steady stash and supply, you can go with something like the Cuisipro Donvier Electronic Yogurt Maker and two sets of Replacement Cuisipro Donvier Yogurt Maker Jars. This way, you could make the first batch of 6 cups, and then make another batch of 6 more cups and another batch…If you are letting it incubate for 8 hours at a time, you could easily have about 12 cups of yogurt in a day’s time. Some may even want to have two of these machines going and then you could make 24 cups.

2. Contact a Food Manufacturing Distributor: This is probably the most expensive route to pursue, but if you’re aiming to create your own yogurt line or brand and need to make a giant vat of yogurt, this is probably the best option to pursue. You can expect to probably pay several thousand dollars for this type of equipment – so make sure you research carefully if it is something you really indeed need and want to do. If you can get by with two six cup machines working double time, it’s a low cost solution and you’ll still have some great tasting yogurt! If you are still convinced a heavy duty commercial machine is necessary, you’d likely to do best with a commercial food manufacturing supplier who can help you find what you need.

3. Check With Others: You never know what you will find online. You can or you can check out other sites as well to see what you can find.

The Cuisipro Donvier electronic yogurt maker is a popular model that many people have inquired about, so we decided to write a review about the different features it offers and how it compares to other makes and models we have tried.

Making your own yogurt is a fun and easy experience that can be further simplified by using an electric yogurt maker that helps with ensuring the right temperature and timing.

Cuisipro is a globally recognized company that produces a wide variety of kitchen gadgets and accessories. Based in Ontario Canada, the company prides itself in making innovative and stylish products to simplify cooking to make it an enjoyable experience.

The Cusipro Donvier collection is based around an electronic yogurt maker that makes up to 6 cups of creamy yogurt using 8 indivudual canister jars that enable users to make assorted flavors and varieties all at once. Additional jars to purchase are also available for those who would need them. Having the convenience of separate jars is typically a matter of preference – and if you’re one who likes to add your own flavors and be creative with adding new combinations it can be quite worthwhile to have a machine with this feature. It’s also quite handy for those who enjoy having their yogurt to be portable – one jar can easily be taken with you to school or work for lunch or used as a snack!

Here are some additional features of this electronic yogurt maker:

LCD Timer: An LCD timer counts backwards to allow for you to know exactly when the yogurt is ready and without worrying about accidentally or inadvertently losing track of time.

Auto Shut Off: An Auto shut off feature ensures that you will never accidentally leave the machine on when not in use. This is especially reassuring for those who like to sleep while making yogurt.

Time Control: As the time you allow the yogurt to heat can make a wide difference in texture and consistency and that not everyone has the same preferences, we especially like that you can set the timer in 30 minute increments ranging between 4 to 14 hours.

BPA Free: When using plastic containers, it is also reassuring to know they are BPA free and there is no risk of worrying about the chemical BPA leeching into your food as is the case with some items.

Thermometer Included: Having a thermometer included saves you from purchasing one separately and makes it very easy to boil your milk before mixing your ingredients.

As with any yogurt maker we review, we can’t stress enough how likely your first few batches might not turn out exactly as you like it. Everyone has differences in what tastes they like and the type of milk or yogurt starter you use will also play a very large factor in your satisfaction with the results. For best first time results, we recommend using organic whole milk and allowing it to set for at least 6 – 8 hours and using a plain yogurt that you like as a starter. Remember if it seems like there is a lot of liquid at the top this is also normal and to mix it right in. Once you get the hang of it, then you can start getting creative and trying new things!
