Total volume
The total volume of the yoghurt maker, which determines how much product can be cooked in it at a time. In yoghurt makers with a bowl for cottage cheese, the volume is determined by the capacity of this bowl; otherwise, the total volume is equal to the sum of the volumes of the yoghurt cups.
Volume of 1 glass
The volume of a separate working container for yoghurt. The division of the total volume into separate glasses simplifies the dosage and speeds up the process of preparing yoghurt; in addition, in this way you can more accurately choose the volume of preparation — after all, it is not always necessary to prepare a full yoghurt maker, sometimes it is enough to “load” only a part of the glasses.
Number of glasses
The number of individual working containers (glasses) of the yoghurt maker. Dividing the total volume into several small containers speeds up the cooking process and facilitates dosage; also yoghurts with different additives can be prepared at the same time in different glasses thanks to this.
Shutdown timer
The shutdown timer automatically turns off the yoghurt maker after the time required to make yoghurt. Thus, you can not be afraid to confuse the shutdown time and "overexpose" or "underexpose" the product. However, note that it is advisable to immediately place the finished yogurt in the fridge, so even the presence of a shutdown timer does not eliminate the need to pay considerable attention to the cooking process.
