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.

Hi Ivo,
Thank you for your email. I absolutely loved the Bulgarian and greek starter, as well as the Skyr. Just last night I used the Filmjolk starter and it is cooling in the fridge. Very
interesting consistency. My fave has to be the bulgarian as it is tarter.
I’m really enjoying your products and I look forward to many more yogurt batches.
Cheers!

Hello, Ivo
I have tried and ordered Bacillus Bulgaricus through amazon and loved it so I googled and found out your company offers much more than yogurt. In Seoul it’s hard to find low fat yogurt so I have made homemade yogurt for several years. Bacillus Bulgaricus starter works magically and it’s so easy to follow. I am glad I’ve ordered directly from you and look forward to order different types of product.
Kindly,
Jeonghyun

Hi Ivo!
Thank you so much for this culture, I’m really looking forward to making it.
I will be eating this yogurt for my health. I’m sure it will taste good, too, but I’m choosing it for long-term health. I’m 61 and on many medications with health problems. I’m hoping this yogurt will make my system better in many ways. The yogurt for sale in this country is not very live and is full of sugar.
Thanks again!

It has been at least 45 years since I stopped routinely buying yogurt but have during that time weekly made my own because I feel,it is a healthier breakfast option than many others from which I could choose. The reason I stopped buying it is because I felt it too sweet and far too “gummy”.. Why YOUR starter: I have found it to be as good or better than any other I have used and it is more economical. For the 6 1/2 C. (2%) made each week (more when needed for cooking and baking) I use less than 1/4 tsp.of your starter and have never had it fail to produce a quality end product. I have tried a number of your products and appreciate that they are available.
