Reviews of Euro Cuisine Gy50 Greek Yogurt Maker

Great Idea; Not sure about construction - > UPDATE: early models have issues
Rating by : M. Taylor "mtpaperworks",

I began making yogurt from scratch a few months ago, and have been using a cloth to drain off some of the excess whey. (I place the cloth into a metal mesh strainer, and place the cloth-lined strainer over a glass bowl).

I wanted to find something that was easier to wash than the cloth, big enough to hold 2qts, and not as expensive as the Matfer 17360 Exoglass Bouillon Strainer. This item came out recently and seems to fit the bill.

I just drained my first batch and it worked great. It does, however, seem incredibly delicate and fragile.

I will be back to update my review after a few more batches, to report on how well the mesh holds up.

UPDATE: used less than 6 times, with the utmost of care. Mesh is tearing away from plastic, a lot of yummy yogurt drains out with the whey. Called EuroCuisine and they were very helpful, and concerned about the item and will send out a replacement.

Works great--I LOVE it!

I have been using the Graham Kerr yogurt strainer which is similar to the Euro Cuisine Greek Yogurt Maker for at least 15 years to make German Quark and have unsuccessfully searched for a replacement. The Euro Cuisine holds a half gallon, so works better than the smaller Graham Kerr strainer. I was hesitant to order it because of some of the negative reviews, but am very pleased with my purchase. I am certain that with proper care it will last many years. When my Quark is done, I simply turn the strainer upside down on the lid so that I don't damage the fine mesh by using a spoon. I then rinse the strainer under cold water and swish it around in warm soapy dishwater before rinsing it again under warm running water before letting it air dry.

I love this yogurt strainer

I didn't buy this one initially because of the reviews that said it didn't hold up. But I finally bought it a couple months ago when the ones I bought instead turned out to let way too much yogurt (not just the whey) through the mesh. I've been using it two to three times a week (we go through a lot of yogurt) and it's still in great shape. So on to what I love about this strainer: 1) It really does hold two quarts. In fact, it holds two liters! 2) The reservoir is plenty big to hold all the whey that comes from a 24-hour strain without the strainer's then sitting in the whey. 3) Only the whey goes through the mesh, not yogurt. The only place where there is a little yogurt leakage is through the holes in the center cone. I'm not sure why it's there or why it has the holes in it, but it lets through a little (less than a tablespoon) yogurt at the beginning of the straining. 4) The strained yogurt comes out of it cleanly. It just plops into the bowl in a single mass. A little bit is left in the strainer on the flat plastic areas and those scrape out easily (gently). 5) It's easy to clean. I do not put it in the dishwasher (mostly because I don't have one). I rinse it off under hot water. Then I swish it lightly with a soapy wash cloth so as not to stress the mesh. Then I rinse it again. Then I do a final finishing rinse in a container of water with a splash of vinegar added to it. Using the vinegar finishing rinse is actually part of our standard washing procedure. I wash the reservoir and lid as usual. I let it all air-dry and then put it away.

It's so nice to have a yogurt strainer that holds a full two quarts, which is the standard batch size when I make my yogurt.
