You don't need any stinkin' machine for frozen yogurt, just pop any
yogurt into your freezer. The only reason ice cream needs a machine
is to dash air into the cream to thicken it, yogurt needs no over run,
it's already thick. I freeze store bought yogurt all the time, in
fact I have some in my freezer now. You can eat it straight from the
freezer but I prefer to place a container in the fridge and about six
hours later it's the perfect consistancy for me.
