The Greek yogurt starter makes Greek yogurt which tastes as amazing as Bulgarian yogurt, just a bit milder, not as tart, somewhat creamier, and somewhat thicker than it. Greek yogurt is very similar to Bulgarian, just less tart and thicker and this is exactly the yogurt this starter will make for you.
The starter is organic and fully natural with no preservatives, additives, artificial colors or flavors. It contains no GMO ingredients and it is gluten free.

Hello, so I have been looking for a reliable yogurt culture starter and one that can easily be delivered to Nigeria. I searched online and came upon your site and I’ve already ordered 2 of your products to try. I own a Café in Nigeria, FitLife Cafe and we make almost everything with Greek yogurt. We have expansion plans and we would like to have a reliable yogurt culture starter supplier.

Hi Ivo,
Yogurt was really good. I made the Greek yogurt and it’s some of the nicest yogurt I’ve had. I’ll need more starter as I find it more consistent and easier to use starter instead of previous batch.
I will place another order soon!
With regards,
Ben

I have been using your yogurt started for a long time.
I liked the last one (Greek yogurt) which I just tried very much.
In fact I will order another packet later one.
Thank you and best wishes for 2020

Hi Ivo,
Since I opted out of your mailing list I’d like to voluntarily offer you some feedback.
An excellent yogurt culture. Used it with 2 liters of local organic whole milk cultured in an
Instantpot for 10 hours as I like a little tartness. Drained half the batch for Greek yogurt and am using the rest as is. The whey will make lacto-fermented veggies, root beer, soft cheeses like ricotta and a bunch of other things. The yogurt was excellent on a slice of home made tart
of apples, blueberries, tecolote, soursop, mango and other fruits that grow here. (The Laredo address is a mail forwarding service to me in Central Mexico.)
Haven’t tried the kefir yet but I’m sure it will be good.
Anyway, thanks. Feliz Año Nuevo.

I have just found your site as I was searching for yoghurt cultures. Currently, I am using cultures from Green Living Australia and have done so for quite a while now but am looking to explore other options. My yoghurt production involves an electric cooker that holds the culture, uht milk, full cream milk powder at a constant temperature of 40 degrees for the selected time period. The milk is not heated beforehand and is added straight from the pantry and not cold from the fridge. The culture is kept in the freezer and I have had success with cultures that are twelve months old.

I’ve always liked yogurt. Then I liked Greek yogurt better. As I learned about probiotics, I found Bulgarian yogurt. Which now leads me to make our own.
Thanks

Hi Ivo – Finally had a chance to make a 1 gallon batch using the new Greek starter. I usually use your regular Bulgarian starter in 1 gal batches in my InstaPot, and then strain it once it’s cooled off to thicken it up. Tried the Greek batch this morning before straining…it’s definitely creamier and thicker than the Bulgarian, but I’m also missing the nice tang I get from the Bulgarian. I’ll be sticking with the Bulgarian, but will also see how the second generation of the Greek is. I’ll send more feedback in a week or so after I make a second batch.

Hi Ivo
I tried both the rose and the Greek yogurts. I must not have stirred the rose long enough or incubated it long enough because it was lumpy and runny, but the Greek yogurt came out well after 9 hours, even with just whole milk. However I have to say that I personally prefer the original yogurt flavour in both cases. These two are very mild and I like a little bit of tang in my yogurt.
Thank you, and until next time…

I made my first batch of Greek yogurt and it was great!

Ivo,
Made the Greek Yogurt yesterday. I love the smooth texture of the yogurt. The taste is great and it has less tartness.
I love both yogurts, planning on continuing with both.
Thank you so much for the chance to try the Greek Yogurt. I just love your starter so much.
Thank you,

I have been cultivating my yogurt on a heating pad and a blanket. It works great, on the lowest temperature.

I love Greek yogurt as well as your Bulgarian.

I just experimented with the regular yogurt which I questioned you about a few weeks ago. You suggested to put it in the microwave or a closet in the dark and cover it to help it get creamier. Voila! I did not cover it, as the kitchen closet is very warm, but I kept it in the closet after making for 1.5 days and it is lovely and creamy! Thanks again for your suggestions.
