Yogourmet Yogurt Starter With Probiotics (12 Pack Bulk Version) - Make Yogurt at Home - Starter Culture - All Natural, Gluten Free, Kosher, Halal - 3 g Sachets

I've been making yogurt in my Instantpot with batch sizes of half milk gallons for years using a different brand of starter. Recently, my yogurt has not been setting up. There are lots of variables in making yogurt, so I tried different milk, tested the temps my Instantpot, etc. I tried this new Yogourmet brand, and everything is working great again. It is much more powerful compared to other brands. I only need a half packet of culture to get good results from a half gallon of milk. I have re-used the yogurt as a starter for a second batch, and it works great. I could probably do more batches from the starter, just have not tried it yet. So I am currently getting 4 batches of yogurt (each with a half gallon of milk) per packet. Glad I found this brand! I use NOT ULTRA PASTEURIZED (very important) whole milk (Clover for Bay Area people). I bring the milk up to slowly to180'F, then slowly let it come down to 110'F, then add culture, let it incubate overnight. Delicious! I started making my own yogurt mostly because I got tired of using so many big plastic containers. When I make my own, the cost is much less than half the price using milk instead of buying yogurt in a plastic container.

I've been looking everywhere for a yogurt starter that yields a delicious, tart, and tangy yogurt. Wonderful flavor and so easy to use. To have more of the probiotic species, I cultured the yogurt at 98F for 14 hours, instead of the recommended higher temp for fewer hours. It yielded a very light and delicate yogurt similar with zero separation of the curds/whey. I then used a Greek yogurt strainer to thicken the yogurt and increase it's protein content. I used a half gallon of 0% fat, organic, lactose-free ultra-pasteurized milk, skipped the boiling process (woohoo!), and I whisked in 2 tbps of inulin along (to boost the probiotic species) along with 2 packets of Yogourmet Yogurt Starter with Probiotics into the cold milk. Note that following the directions and culturing this yogurt at a high temp for short period of time would yield a thicker yogurt more quickly, but as with any yogurt starter, it will yield more separation, less silkiness, and much less beneficial probiotics.

Smooth consistent yogurt. First time making yogurt. Used the Pampered Chef Multi cooker on yogurt setting. Used 1 tablespoon of pure vanilla extract per 1 liter of store brand whole milk. Left it for 9.5 hours. Used a yogurt strainer in the refrigerator for 8 hours to set the yogurt and get the Greek yogurt consistency. It was so easy and good I hope to make a batch weekly. Too early to know any probiotics benefits.

I just made my first yogurt batch. It was easy and quick to do, and came out perfect

I've used this product before without issue, but the new packets I ordered simply do not work. I'm assuming the culture is bad. The yogurt has good flavor, but it doesn't firm up the way it is supposed to. I incubate for at least 12 hours and then strain for Greek yogurt consistency.

I am thrilled with the results I got the first time making yogurt. I followed Bunny Girl's recipe in the reviews, and the finished product was thick, creamy and delicious. I am experimenting with sweetness and fruit, and we loved the fresh strawberry that I made this morning. I also made vanilla with cinnamon and sugar. It may be the best yogurt I have ever eaten. And, on top of it all, all those probiotics. Never did like spending all that money on supplements. Beyond happy. Making another batch, and this time, after the yogurt was done on the stove top, I placed the pot in a cool water bath and cooled it down in about half and hour, which saved allot of time. March 26th. I am making it again, only this time, I am using a full 2 quarts. The last batch I made was so delicious, flavored with orange zest, orange marmalade and sweetened condensed milk. The tang of the yogurt goes perfectly with the tartness of the orange. After I cool the yogurt overnight, I put it in a fine mesh strainer and let the whey drain out. The finished product is the consistency of soft serve ice cream. My picky husband and toughest critic when it comes to food is raving about this home made product.
