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

It easy and it makes good 24hr yogurt.

I’ve been successfully making yogurt for years. Enjoyed amazing results with original Yogourmet yogurt starter. Decided to try this new product. I Followed directions but the yogurt failed to gel. It just turned into sour milk. Tried it a 2nd time ... failed a 2nd time. One reviewer said she uses 2 sachets of this new starter per liter. Is 2 sachets the solution???? Do I really want to risk all those precious hours and $$$ on milk + 2 sachets??? Mmmm... maybe not. Won't buy this product again. Will stick to Yogourmet's original yogurt starter.

Yogurt starter always works great but the price has been going up so much over the last couple years, that it makes more sense to just use yogurt as a starter.

So far so yummy! We have a hard time finding unsweetened, unflavored, vegan Greek yogurt until now!! I’ve only used 1 package and 1/2 of another to compare how they hold up if I measure by oz instead of just using the entire packet. So happy to have a plain, unflavored vegan Greek yogurt that’s cost effective!!

Makes nice yogurt Nice and tangy not sweet

Fresh ! Works Great!!

The resulting yogourt is thick and tangy! This starter delivers great yogourt! I use a Cuisinart yogourt maker and with this starter I’m guaranteed great yogourt

Super quick delivery, works perfectly for my homemade yoghurt
