Usage
The packs are packaged and labeled with the grams they contain and the volume those grams make when used entirely in one go.
The packs are intended for single use, or their contents could be split for multiple use (with the exception of the Sourdough starter which should always be used in one go).
When you split the pack, take out as much as you need to make your yogurt, then reseal and refreeze the remaining starter for later. Make sure you store the sachets in a way that prevents moisture from getting in, i.e. well closed in a Ziploc bag or wrapped around and fastened with a rubber band.
When you split the contents of the pack and use less starter amount to make smaller volumes, keep in mind that you are also reducing the total amount of yogurt that you can make from the pack (read more on that here). Refer to this page to see the gram to Liters (gallons) chart and to find out how much starter to use for different volumes of milk.
Help
Bacillus Bulgaricus starters are easy to use and are strong enough to make sure that the fermentation process completes naturally and smoothly, under the right conditions.

Здравейте,не зная английски затова ще ви пиша на български.Та на въпроса ви:преди да закупя пакета за 150л бях си купила за 1ви път вашият продукт през Амазон,там попаднах на него,закупих за 2л за да го опитам.1ия път не ми се получи направих го с
козе мляко полумаслено,стана много странно ,но 2рото го нсправих с пълномаслено краве мляко,стана……невероятно,гъсто и страаашно вкусно,автентично българско кисело мляко.Взех от пакетчето адреса на сайта ви и от там си поръчах най-голямата разфасофка с идеята да си я поделя с моя приятелка,обачее когато дойде пакета хлъцнах ,ами той беше много малък . С първия беше лесно :разделих го на 2 и готово,ами с тоя?
По колко закваска ще слагам за да се получи същия страхотен ефект? Четох ,четох и доколкото разбрах ще трябва на 1л мляко да слагам по 1гр закваска,но така и не съм се
осмелила да опитам ,нито да го поделя с приятелката ми.Оставих си го за мен ,но за сега си квася от предишните ми заквасени със закваската закупена чрез Амазон.Ще съм Ви благодарна ако потвърдите или ме поправите за това което съм разбрала от
инструкциите т.е за 1л -1гр.Благодаря предварително.Аа и благодаря за подаръка ,трогната съм и имам желание да опитам и други от Вашите продукти.Очарована съм
.Поздрави от Аликанте ,Испания.

Hi Ivo,
The starter is very good. So good, in fact, that I can use it for each new batch
and I don’t need as much of the original starter. That said, I did in fact just receive an order from you the day before yesterday so that I can share with others. I will absolutely continue to order as needed. I am very grateful for the service you offer :).
Regards,
Sue M.

Hello,
Are you able to make Bulgarian yoghurt with freeze dried camel milk? I have read it does not coagulate or curdle like regular milk. I usually make goats milk yoghurt with a little gelatine and maintain 80 degrees for half an hour and it sets nicely:) I also use a yoghurt maker and leave it for 24 hours to consume all sugars.
My family all have intolerances to lactose so decided to try camel milk powder.
Kind regards
Soraya

I did make it and have enjoyed it very much. It has turned out every time and I have been making it every 4 days or so. It is so creamy and I really like the taste.
Thank you!
