Greek Yogurt Strainer

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️The GY50 yogurt strainer is fantastic! It turns regular yogurt into thick, creamy Greek yogurt with zero hassle. Easy to use, easy to clean, and the results are perfect every time. A must-have for yogurt lovers!

OH MY Gosh this is a great product. I have read the negative reviews and it is almost like we have different items.. We run a community house and we are fermenting foods especially yogurt and kefir ...for health and to save money. The GY50 works better than regular strainers and you can store the yogurt after you have strained it in it very easily. We tried several strainers and colandars with a variety of things in them. We work with DV victims, combat veterans, the homeless etc...many people come to us in poor health and we teach cooking and techniques for a healthy lifestyle on a low income using organic and whole foods. Making yogurt is definitely part of this process. Real Homemade Greek Yogurt is as Good or Better than store bought with no extra additives or thickeners. You can get an amazing product and it is alot cheaper which is important if you are low income and using food stamps or supplies from the food bank. We really wish Organic whole food was available to everyone. We think it would cut medical bills for the country in a big way. For us this is a health investment.We looked at many heating yogurt machines but due to volume we make on a weekly basis decided to keep our method going, which is basically to do a gallon batch each time. We use a pressure cooker to heat/cool down milk, We then put culture in and put in quart mason jars, we are moving to two quart jars purchased from Amazon.Com because they fit inside the Pressure Cooker when we are fermenting. Please note the cooker is not on heat. We just add warm water and and close the lid... and then ferment over night in the pressure cooker, then pour into Euro Cuisine CY50 Greek Yogurt Maker....this item is actually NOT a yogurt maker from the perspective that it does not ferment the yogurt, it is a full size (2) quart strainer. It is sort of like a giant coffee strainer. It holds the large size of "Nancy's Honey Cultured Yogurt" perfectly. You get several cups of whey out of it. We turn our whey into lemonade and other drinks for people to consume for the culture and health benefits which include ulcers and gasteric problems. We ferment our own yogurt as well as use Nancy's as a backup because we eat so much weekly. It is really a shame so many Americans suffer from stomach and gut problems including surgeries when they can eat their medicine and enjoy it! We tried other methods to strain yogurt but decided on this product because of the cost and the fact we do not like to strain products into paper towels or coffee filters. It is easy to clean to but we keep adding yogurt to it and putting it back in the fridge! Some of the reviews say this product is fragile. I have not experienced this. It might be because we use plastic utensils and avoid metal because with Kefir fermentation metal can change the flavor. When you first put in the yogurt it can be runny. We spoon it in and then just pour on top when we get to the bottom of our quart and two quart jars. It sets up in a few hours but if you like it extra firm let it set up overnight. Using cream or 1/2 and 1/2 during fermentation is absolutely divine. The Euro Cuisine GY50 Maker Works great either straining yogurt you just made or prepared yogurt into creamy Greek Style yogurt. We are making yogurt cheese as we speak. You just let it drain a litte bit longer. We would definitely purchase this item again. We plan on having fermenting parties to teach others how to do this. Amazon is a great place to get supplies and the prices seem to be the best. We know down the road we will want another one. Even the die hard, "I don't eat yogurt" change their minds after eating homemade Greek Yogurt. We are not kidding...it is really amazing stuff. We are plugging Nancy's Cultured products as a prepared yogurt to use because of the volume but there are many others that simply cost more. Either way it is much cheaper to make Greek Yogurt from scratch or straining your own. We paid for this Amazon purchase in in 4 cultured batches.www.harmonyhealingheartservices.org

I actually bought this after seeing it in a TikTok video, and it turned out to be one of the best purchases I’ve made. It’s super easy to use, the strainer works perfectly, and the yogurt comes out thick and delicious every time. Way better than store-bought, definitely worth the price.

I just got this yogurt strainer yesterday. I used it immediately and it works like a charm. The only negative is the size. It's perfect if making a half gallon of milk yogurt, but if making more it won't hold it all. I think i will order another. Also it was super easy to clean with just a sink sprayer.

The media could not be loaded. I seriously love this! Great product! I've been using this about a year and it has made making greek yogurt so much easier. Easy to clean, effective and a great size. I use this in a weekly basis and it's so much easier to clean than cheese cloth.

I've been making greek yogurt for a while, and had been using a cheesecloth setup to strain the yogurt.Since my setup was a bit messy I was looking for an easier-to-use device.After using the Euro Cuisine GY50 five times, here is what I found.The key question to me was how well the mesh would strain the yogurt compared to cheesecloth.See the photo for a comparison of the straining capabilities of the GY50. They whey was properly extracted, but also allowed some yogurt to pass (jar on right-hand side), whereas the cheesecloth filtered out the whey much better (jar on the left-hand side).Deal-breaker? No. While it could work better, I find it works well enough.Pros:- Fully self-contained- Space-saving for refrigerator- Works for 1/2 gallonCons:- Mesh is somewhat flimsy, and care needs to be taken when cleaning. A good soak and rinse goes a long way to prevent from damaging it.Now stop reading reviews, buy this thing, and go make some greek yogurt.

One use and it has saved my yogurt making adventure and future $$ that i won't be regularly spending on Fage yogurt now! i will never make homemade yogurt again without using one of these, it worked wonders, mess free, in less than 2 hrs for me. my yogurt batch came out perfect, on the creamy thick side and totally delicious without any flavoring/etc added to it. Using this mess free container to get rid of some of that whey that was making my yogurt not taste that delicious before getting this, has made a world of a difference. I did not want close to cottage cheese thickness so I drained till i got a cup worth of whey only, 1/3 of the batch size i made and i ended up with close to fage total like yogurt and it was just as delicious (big yeah for fage is freaking expensive here!).nice sturdy size too. I like making small batches so i do love that you can simply dump yogurt in the container after removing whey out of it and use container as a yogurt container without yogurt going bad. Mesh does seem fragile, was scared to touch it after reading reviews on that part! i simply flip yogurt out and gently scraped out what little got stuck with a plastic spoon and quickly went and rinsed container under warm water with sprayer. it got cleaned up just fine that way without me touching it. Still never want to be without it so definitely buying another one and stocking it away just incase it gets damaged..Update: acrylic catcher container cracks easily! had it temporarily sitting on bottom dishwasher rack and it fell out unto kitchen vinyl floor and cracked on one side. very surprised it did since it only fell like 12".

This works great!! The lid secures nicely and my homemade greek yogurt drains perfectly. I am now making greek yogurt weekly. I am planning on buying another one of these!
