Yup! Smartbean from Tangs
Still working well for me after 3 years!!

Now we use Meiji fresh milk to make yogurt. Yums!

May I ask what is the difference between Smart Bean's yogurt maker and Phoon Huat's? Thanks.

Happy Mama,


Take a look at this link. There is a personal review by a blogger (I think) about the Severin and Smartbean yogurt maker.

Not familiar with PH so cannot help you on that.

I am eye-ing the Severin. The one at Tangs has 14 jars (1 set for 1 week) for $78.

Phoon Huat works by hot water, regulated using a thermal container.

Smart Bean works by electricity. They control the temperature accurately.

Aut, the one with smaller jars is definitely better from hygiene point of view cos I normally sterilise a few glass bottles and spoons and use those to transfer the yogurt to keep

Thanks mrswongtuition :celebrate:

Yes, I am getting the Severin (small jars) maker soon.

Can I check how long does the yogurt last in the fridge without turning sour??

Meiji fresh milk - just tried the choco low fat version. Its yummy without being cloyingly sweet, unlike many other brands. Will switch from Marigold if DS likes the taste of the fresh milk.

For home made yogurt, a week max.
Buy sticker labels so that you can label your jars.

Recently, I've been reading a lot about fish oil and how omega-3 is beneficial to you. (for example, http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-1086799/Is-Omega-3-fish-oil-supplement-good--load-old-codswallop.html Don't worry, I'm not here to sell fish oil to you haha!


I remember that when I was growing up, we used to drink that Scott's Emulsion that tasted terrible, but we were made to eat it anyway. So it seems maybe our parents did know something about the fish oil!

I've started giving fish oil supplements, and I'm also taking them myself. My question is this: are there any other supplements which have been shown to have positive effects on health and development, especially for children?
