Making homemade yogurt is easier than many people think, and it’s a great way to save money while controlling exactly what goes into your food. In this first test, I unbox the Ultimate Yogurt Maker and Ultimate Yogurt Strainer, then use them to make a simple vegan soy yogurt from scratch.

Chef Tests Ultimate Yogurt Maker | Unboxing + Easy Soy Yogurt Recipe

If you’ve been thinking about making your own dairy-free yogurt at home, this video will show you what comes in the box, how easy the machine is to use, and whether it’s worth adding to your kitchen.

What’s Included in the Box?

The Ultimate Yogurt Maker is designed to make homemade yogurt with minimal effort. During the unboxing, I take a close look at everything included and share my first impressions of the build quality, design, and ease of setup.

I also unbox the Ultimate Yogurt Strainer, which is designed to remove excess liquid from yogurt to create a thicker, Greek-style consistency.

Making Homemade Soy Yogurt

For my first test, I made a simple soy yogurt using soy milk and a yogurt starter.

The process is straightforward:

• Mix the soy milk with your yogurt starter.
• Pour the mixture into the yogurt jars.
• Place the jars in the yogurt maker.
• Let the yogurt ferment.
• Refrigerate until chilled.

The result is a fresh homemade yogurt that’s perfect for breakfast, smoothies, parfaits, cooking, or making dairy-free sour cream.

Why I Chose Soy Milk

Soy milk is one of the best plant-based milks for homemade yogurt because it contains plenty of protein, which helps create a thicker texture than many other dairy-free milks.

Unsweetened soy milk with simple ingredients typically produces the best results.

First Impressions

After using the Ultimate Yogurt Maker for the first time, I found the setup simple and beginner-friendly.

Things I liked:

• Easy to assemble
• Simple controls
• Individual jars make portioning easy
• Great for homemade dairy-free yogurt
• Works well for meal prep

As with any yogurt maker, the final texture depends on the milk, starter culture, and fermentation time, so I’ll be doing additional testing in future videos.

Ultimate Yogurt Strainer

If you enjoy thick Greek-style yogurt, a yogurt strainer can make a noticeable difference.

By removing some of the liquid (whey), the yogurt becomes:

• Thicker
• Creamier
• Better for dips
• Great for parfaits
• Excellent as a sour cream substitute

The strainer is a useful accessory if you prefer a richer texture.

More Vegan Yogurt Tests Coming Soon

This is just the beginning of a larger homemade yogurt series.

In upcoming videos, I’ll be testing:

• Different vegan yogurt starters
• Which starter makes the thickest yogurt
• Homemade soy yogurt vs. store-bought yogurt as a starter
• Greek-style soy yogurt
• Different fermentation times
• Inulin vs. cornstarch for thicker yogurt
• Reusing homemade yogurt as a starter
• Which plant milk makes the best yogurt

These comparisons should help you decide which ingredients and methods produce the best homemade vegan yogurt.

Is the Ultimate Yogurt Maker Worth It?

Based on my first experience, the Ultimate Yogurt Maker is easy to use and makes homemade yogurt approachable for beginners. If you enjoy yogurt regularly—especially dairy-free yogurt—it can be a convenient way to make fresh batches at home while experimenting with different milks and starter cultures.

I’ll continue testing different recipes and techniques throughout this series, so be sure to check back for updated results and side-by-side comparisons.
