Betjeningsvejledning

Generel drift

1. Prepare your ingredients (milk, starter culture, etc.) according to your chosen recipe.
2. Pour the prepared mixture into the inner container.
3. Place the lid on the inner container, then place the inner container into the heating unit.
4. Cover the entire unit with the transparent outer lid.

Indstilling af tid og temperatur

The appliance allows for precise control over the fermentation process:

• Temperaturområde: 20°C til 55°C
• Tidsinterval: 1 time til 48 timer

1. Press the 'Set' button once to adjust the temperature. The temperature display will flash. Use the '+' and '-' buttons to set the desired temperature.
2. Press the 'Set' button again to adjust the time. The time display will flash. Use the '+' and '-' buttons to set the desired fermentation duration.
3. After setting both parameters, the appliance will automatically start the heating/fermentation process after a few seconds, or you can press 'Set' one more time to confirm and start immediately.
4. To stop or reset the process, press the 'Stop/Reset' button.

Making Yogurt, Cheese, and Kefir

The versatility of the Browin 801013 allows for various preparations:

• Yogurt (Natural, Greek, Vegan): Typically requires temperatures between 38°C and 45°C, with fermentation times ranging from 6 to 12 hours, depending on the starter culture and desired consistency. For Greek yogurt, use the strainer after initial fermentation to separate whey.
• Kefir: Generally ferments at lower temperatures, around 20°C to 25°C, for 12 to 24 hours.
• Cottage Cheese: Specific recipes will guide temperature and time, often involving rennet and longer, lower temperature settings. The strainer is essential for separating curds from whey.

Tip for Consistent Temperature: To ensure a more even temperature distribution, especially for longer fermentation times or specific cultures like L. Reuteri, add a small amount of water (e.g., 1-2 cm) to the bottom of the heating unit before placing the inner container inside. This creates a water bath effect, helping to stabilize the temperature around the inner container.

Vedligeholdelse og rengøring

Regelmæssig rengøring sikrer apparatets levetid og hygiejniske funktion.

• Tag altid stikket ud af stikkontakten, og lad det køle helt af før rengøring.
• Inner Container, Lids, and Strainer: These parts are dishwasher safe or can be washed by hand with warm soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely.
• Opvarmningsenhed: Wipe the exterior of the heating unit with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or scourers. Never immerse the heating unit in water.
• Sørg for, at alle dele er tørre, før du samler eller opbevarer apparatet igen.

Fejlfinding

If you encounter issues with your Browin 801013, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• Appliance does not power on:
  • Kontroller, om netledningen er korrekt tilsluttet både apparatet og stikkontakten.
  • Kontroller, at stikkontakten fungerer korrekt ved at teste den med en anden enhed.
• Yogurt/Cheese is not fermenting or is too thin:
  • Ensure the starter culture is fresh and active.
  • Verify that the correct temperature and time settings were applied for your specific recipe.
  • Consider using the water bath method (adding a small amount of water to the heating unit) to ensure more consistent temperature.
  • Ensure the milk used is suitable for fermentation (e.g., not ultra-pasteurized if your recipe requires specific milk types).
• Inconsistent temperature:
  • As mentioned, using a water bath can help distribute heat more evenly.
  • Ensure the appliance is not placed in a drafty area or near a cold surface.
