I love it. I’ve been making yogurt for about 15 years, but have always had trouble getting thick yogurt. With your starter, that problem is history. Your starter makes thick and creamy,
tasteful yogurt. I absolutely love it. Wish I knew about your starter a long time ago.

Hello, Ivo!
I descend from northwestern - and, further back, northern Indian - ancestors. Our cooking and dishes call for yoghurt not only in their actual preparation, but also as an аccompaniment.
I am a total addict, as my family will vouch (with a sigh, I suspect)!
I am in love with the velvety texture, temperature (naturally cool), fragrance, taste and its enhancing effect on the taste of food. I often have ayran for breakfast and lunch; one of my many heavens is a powerful parsley garlic yoghurt, chicken kiev and small potatoes. I also like to add cooked peas, small pasta, herbs and cooked, drained and cooled spinach to a huge bowl of salted yoghurt.
Yoghurt for me : gently humble sheer power.
Thanks, again.
Varrun

The first batch did not take. Then I used the starter and followed the instructions from website where the temperature was brought up as high and it worked great.

Hello Ivo,
I bought the yougurt starter because I want to try a hierloom culture from Bulgaria. I make yogurt every week by using store bought yougurt but the results are no always the same and the flavor also changes. And sometimes is not so good.
I like making very thick yogurt which I enrich with a cloth bag. Finally I like mixing diferent bacterial strains (mesophile - flora danica and thermophillic - yogurt) to obtain something that looks like thick and smooth cream cheese.
Thank you,
Enrique Winograd

Ivo,
Your yogurt starter is excellent.
Made the first batch per the instructions. Then deviated from your instructions.
Heat the whole milk to 180 F. Stir in (1) envelope unflavored gelatin and 1-1/2 cups powdered milk. Cooled to 110 F, then transferred to the Yogotherm maker for 8 hours. Love the final thickness, smoothness and tangy flavor.

Hi.
Can I use your made yogurt (not the starter) as a starter for hard type cheese which would normally require a Thermophile starter (ie Lactobacillus bulgaricus/helveticus/thermophilus
etc). I have got it on good authority that you can use Bulgarian Yogurt as a starter instead of a DVI.
I also see no reason why you could not use your cheese starters also to do the same. Do you do Mesophile type starter?
Many thanks for your thoughts on this,I am a regular cheese maker who wants to go along a more natural way of making it.

My 12 year old son has Type 1 Diabetes. Store bought yogurt spikes his blood sugar even if it's plain. If I use Fairlife milk (which has half the carbs of regular whole milk) will yogurt
making work? I suppose the sugar is required for the yogurt, so if it's highly processed milk to remove carbs, will it not work correctly? My husband's grandfather was Bulgarian and lived to be 100 and made yogurt all the time so I thought this would be good for my husband and kids, and me, too. Thanks, Christine Bazala

Ivo,
I like to have yogurt after I eat a meal.
About a year ago, Shop Rite stopped selling their store brand basic yogurt (90 calories per 6 ounces).
Now they only have high calorie (160 ) yogurt. I do not want all the extra sugar. And the "designer" name brands are too expensive for me.
So I researched yogurt makers, and got a nice Cuisinart maker, that heats and also cools down.
I just made my first batch.
I set it for 12 hours at 110 degrees.

Hello Ivo,
There Are 2 reasons I like to make my own yogurt. Firstly we have several people in our household who require 24 hour yogurt and so we like to make our own.
Secondly, we like that your starter makes a yogurt that is nice and thick. As you say, most are too runny to be used as a firm yogurt - we ended up using them as drinking yogurt instead.
Thanking you,
