The Donvier Wave Yogurt Strainer turns 1 cup of yogurt into yogurt cheese, which you can put in a variety of delicious recipes that are low in fat, calories, sodium, cholesterol and lactose. Container seals for storage, as well as during the cheese-making process. Permanent stainless steel mesh strainer. Dishwasher-safe on the top shelf. Includes recipes and instructions.

When I first received this, I dumped a container of store bought, plain, fat-free yogurt into it. I looked into it a couple of hours later and was dismayed to realize that a bunch of the yogurt had just flowed right through the holes! Not having time to deal with it at the time, I put it back into the fridge and forgot about it...for several days. When I opened it about three days later to dispose of the yogurt, I was shocked to see that there was thick, Greek-style yogurt in the top. Yes, quite a bit had flowed through the holes, but most of it had stayed in the top and strained into Greek yogurt. After taking out the strained, thickened yogurt, I started a new batch with the stuff that had flowed through, and a couple of days later, it was Greek yogurt as well.

Granted, this does take some time, so if you don't have a lot of patience, I'd just go buy the Greek yogurt. However, if you are more interested in saving money or if you are like me, and usually make your own yogurt to strain, this is a perfect item to create your own Greek yogurt. Yum!

I was very disappointed in the Yogurt Cheese Maker. I tried several brands of yogurt and they all just went thru the screening, so really was a waste of my money. Granted, wasn't as much as some of the other products, but could have gotten better (and did) results with cheese cloth,.'

When I began my online search for yogurt makers, I really didn't know what to buy. Someone had given me a small container of Greek yogurt, and I loved it. When I went to purchase the Greek Yogurt, I knew I would have to learn how to make it. The cost of Greek Yogurt does not fit into our budget. I started my search on amazon, the reviews for this yogurt maker sold me on it.

I buy a large container of Plain Dannon Yogurt ($1.94), put it in the yogurt strainer and take it out before it becomes cheese and its the perfect Greek
Yogurt. I can usually get 4 to 5 servings out of this one large container.

That figures to about 40 cents per serving.

The other great thing about this yogurt maker is that it is small and easy to clean. I highly recommend this product

I've been straining my yogurt for 10 years now using coffee filters and any old strainer over a bowl. Instuctions below. (I finally bought a coffee filter basket and it works even better now.)

Put the filter over the open quart of yogurt, then place the strainer upside down on top of that. Invert them over a bowl and place in fridge. Save the lid. When its done, put the lid back on.

Another way to do it, if you are unsure about inverting it: use 3 or 4 coffee filters in any strainer over a bowl. Fan the filters out to cover all the holes in the strainer and dump the yogurt in quickly. Use a large bowl or check it and empty it a few times because there is usually a lot of whey.

When the yogurt is done, it easily scrapes off of the coffee filters and leaves no aftertaste.

I often leave it strainer for days, no problems.

If you save the whey and blend it with cheese and spices - it makes a nice dip. Whey is full of good probiotics. Cheese Wiz is full of whey, thats where I got the idea.

i should have known better ... since i don't make my kefir in any metal containers. the reviews got me again ... i should have followed my intuition.

when i got the yogurt cheese out of the container the next day it was a perfect consistency BUT gray where it touched the metal screen and the taste was such a strong metal taste is was nauseating. the whey was gray and metal tasting as well. just a horrible experience. i don't understand the positive reviews since the product DOES NOT work for making, edible, yogurt cheese!
