Many thanks for the update and response to my question. I can wait for the shipment. As to the mutation, your advice is very useful. I will follow it. Perhaps the humidity in Singapore impacts the mutation.
By and large, my family really enjoy your yogurt. It beats store bought yogurt because it’s smoother.

Dear Ivo,
I like both the Kefir and Greek yougurt starters. In fact I reordered both.

Hello Ivo,
The kefir is GREAT! My honest opinion, is Bacillus Bulgaricus Kefir is the smoothest and best tasting Kefir I have ever had! And my two sons are big fans as well.
Kirsten –
Hello! I had to wait until I’d also made a batch of the yogurt and tasted it. Both are wonderful!
Rachel D. –
All is well. I ordered a lot of culture
John –
The Bulgarian Kefir is good stuff!!

Hi Ivo,
I have long-time chronic gut issues (bacterial and other imbalances) and am hoping that kefir and other fermented stuff will help.
Also, I just love the taste of kefir! Was looking at your recipes which all sound wonderful. Want to learn how to make ferments at home.
Thanks,
Pier

I love yogurt but the sugar gives me problems. I am getting into homeopathy and heard that your yogurt would help in my path to a healthier lifestyle.
Lori K. –
I am trying out the kefir starter. In the past I have used Kefir grains. I am not use to using a powder.
Collin –
Hello. I’ve been using your kefir for years. It’s a significant part of my life.

Hi ivo
I look forward to receiving my starter and reading the hand book thank you.
I always loved having yoghurt, thought it was quite healthy, then found out it was full of sugar, so stoppes having it.
Liz earle raves about gut health, so recently i bought water kefir as i dont like milk.
She also goes on about making your own yoghurt, so i thought why not!!
Im thinking about buying it for my brother too, as theres alot of plastic used, so trying to help the environment too

Dear Ivo,
Thank you for your message and the Kefir starter pack. The Bacillus Bulgaricus yoghurt starter always makes good yoghurts and always has done so, but I have not yet tried the Kefir starter and not sure when I will be able to. I will need to check your website for instructions on how to use the Kefir starter.
I will need to order further yoghurt starter. I normally purchase the large starter pack (150 litres) from yourself, and store it in the freezer, using a bit at a time as I make a batch of yoghurts.
Susan –
I’m not into many milk products except youghurt! Which I LOVE!!!!!.
You gave me a sachet as a gift , okay but what I really liked was the sourdough starter I now have my own with rye flour and I use yours with a strong flour. Love them both.
Susan
P.S. Iam now on my own and make bread etc. For friends and family. They all love it or so they say!
Viki –
Hello Ivo!
Everything is certainly ok and more than ok! I love your bacteria!!
Super tasty and creamy yogurt – it is the best. My husband is an addict to it. He’d probably leave me if it weren’t in the fridge – lol! So I have bought more recently and will continue to do so. Count me in as a loyal and satisfied customer. I have recommended you repeatedly!
Best
