The All-in-One Fermentation Station for Therapeutic Yogurts

The Ultimate Probiotic Yogurt Maker is purpose-built for serious fermenters following Dr. William Davis's protocols. While I personally prefer the sous vide method using the Anova Precision Cooker 3.0 or Anova Pro for ultimate control and versatility, I understand that's a more complex setup. This dedicated yogurt maker offers an excellent all-in-one solution that handles the critical 36-hour fermentations with ease.

What Makes It Ultimate

  • 68-131°F precise temperature control — perfect for L. reuteri's finicky 100°F requirement
  • 48-hour timer — easily handles 36-hour therapeutic fermentations without babysitting
  • Two 1-quart glass jars — make 2 quarts at once, BPA-free throughout
  • Lifetime warranty — they stand behind their product forever
  • Stainless steel housing — professional grade construction
  • Set-and-forget simplicity — no water baths or clip-on devices needed

Why It's My Second Choice (But Still Excellent)

Most yogurt makers run too hot, killing temperature-sensitive strains like L. reuteri. This unit maintains the exact 100°F needed for Dr. Davis's protocols without the complexity of a sous vide setup. While sous vide offers more versatility for other cooking projects, this dedicated unit excels at one thing: making perfect therapeutic yogurt every time. The 48-hour capability means you can start your fermentation and walk away, knowing it will maintain temperature for the full 36 hours without any intervention. For those who want simplicity without sacrificing precision, this is the way to go.
