I really like the yogurt the starter makes. I ordered a large packet of starter, that is why I haven't ordered recently. Thanks for asking.

I have some questions regarding the yogurt starter, I have some that I have stored in freezer which in a plastic bag. Wanted to know if is still usable? Also wanted to know how much starter is needed if using only 4 cups. Iam using camel milk and want to make all will like before I use a larger quantity of milk so as not to waste.
Thank you,
Debbie

Hi Ivo - I’ve actually only had one attempt at the yoghurt making so far and it was a bit of an experiment. I used powdered milk as I am trying to find a culture that will work with it….I am a bit ‘out in the bush’ and cannot easily get my hands on fresh milk as easily as I would like. I made up the milk as per the instructions, followed your ‘how to’ and used a yoghurt maker to keep the temp correct. It turned out very thin so I gave it a few more hours, but that just made it too sharp (I then strained it and had a pretty solid cheese). I intend to try again!

Hi Ivo,
We are enjoying the yogurt!
We have made 2 batches (2 quarts each time) of yogurt. The first batch took 9 hours until it was the correct consistency. The second batch we forgot about and left over night. It turned
out slightly tart but still very delicious. We made it in glass canning jars. And that is another benefit...no more plastic containers from the grocery store.
It is delicious and has a wonderful texture. Far better than anything we have purchased and better than any yogurt that we have tried making in the past.
Thanks,
John

Hi Ivo,
The first batch mysteriously didn't arrive and when I queried you sent a second batch, which did.
The results are excellent. I've made half a dozen batches now, or it could be more, each time from a starter taken from the previous batch back to the starter taken from the original packet - all t-he rest of which sits patiently waiting in my freezer.
There are no complaints. It is wonderful fresh- and clean-tasting yogurt.
Best wishes,
John

Bacillus Bulgaricus is a company you can rely on for great customer service and their yogurt starter culture is the best I've ever used by far. The quality of the strain is awesome and very easy to make, the taste reminds me of exotic ice cream, smooth, thick, and creamy, yum and the Kefir is like no other its in a class by its self. wow!!!!

Have you ever heard of Bacillus Greekus? Probably not because it’s Bacillus Bulgaricus. Have you ever tried real homemade yogurt? This is by far the best and most natural yogurt you will ever taste. Forget about Greek yogurts - they are full of sugar, and they don’t taste as good as this one. And believe it or not every yogurt (including Greek) has an active culture of Bacillus Bulgaricus inside because that’s what makes the yogurt. Excellent taste, and easy to follow instructions. Also the seller is very responsive, and answered all my questions. Will definitely buy again!

Hi Ivo,
I’m buying your starter because I eat yogurt 3 times a day and I’m looking for yogurt with better consistency and taste. I’ve made my own for years, but have never found “the definitive” starter.
I like it thick and creamy with the right amount of tartness, but not too much. I use semi-skimmed milk, so the starter has to be good as I cannot use whole milk and it’s more difficult to get a thick consistency with semi-skimmed milk.

Hi Ivo
Good news, the culture you sent has produced great results. It’s nice and thick, no lumps and produced only a tiny amount of clear whey on the surface. The changes I have made are :-
1. Changed from semi-skimmed UHT milk to Full fat whole UHT milk. The small local Aldi only sells skimmed and semi skimmed UHT. However, a much larger supermarket ‘Morrisons’ nearby sells the Full fat whole UHT milk (blue carton in photo). If any of your customers experience difficulties in sourcing the Whole milk UHT, you could point out that most major supermarket chains will stock it i.e. Morrisons, Tesco, Sainsburys, Waitrose and the Co-op.
2. I set the temperature on the Yogurt maker from the recommended 42C down to 38C. I’m not 100% certain this lower temperature makes a great deal of difference but you may recall from an earlier post that the temperature on the surface of the yogurt was 42C but lower down it was as high as 45C in the centre of the container. I will stick with the new temperature of 38C in future.
I kept the incubation period the same at 10 hours. Did I mention the taste – very nice indeed. I will stick with Bacillusbulgaricus in future. Thanks for your time, it was much appreciated.

Yes everything is great.
If you check my account, I think you'll see that I made several orders after the first one, because your product is great and I use it everyday to make 1 gallon of yogurt .
My last order was a pretty big order that I made in order to last me until October , because it is so hot here in Kansas during the summer months, I didn't want to risk the culture being exposed to the heat in the delivery trucks, or at the post office, or out at my gate before I had a chance to pick it up !
Don't worry .......I'm definitely sure that in October I will be making another order .
At Our house we love Bacillusbulgarius !!

I received the yeast and was not really clear to me the dosage, so I started with two liters of a one to one whole goat milk and organic cow 3% and added some less than one quarter tee
spoon. Since the milk here is ultra pasteurized I never bring the milk to 80 but to 45. Mix the starter with some milk from the pan and reintroduce back well mix and fill 330ml glass jars cover with lid put them in a metal box on a towel on a hot plate at 38 degrees cover with blankets and wait six hours. After 4 hours it looked already coagulated. After refrigerating the texture was straight and creamy and light cause I don't separate the whey. Very tasty with a slight yeast after taste. The second time I did the same but used the previous batch and there was no after taste and the third time I did 4 liters using the previous batch and some yeast and was very good. The taste after refrigerating is slight sour as is supposed to be, I'm very satisfied.

I have found that the best way for me to repopulate the good bacteria is by using your Yogurt Starter Culture. I tried others but yours is the best. I am supper sensitive to foods and smells and my selection of Prebiotic foods is limited for now. Currently my body is rebuilding/adjusting from Heavy Metal Poisoning, Constipation, Laxative over use which stripped my gut of the good guys, so I'm making and eating fresh yogurt daily I'm also taking full advantage of your Heirloom Bulgarian Culture I re-culture yogurt for my family enjoying the best yogurt ever:)
