Hi Ivo,
As to your product we are very happy with the yogurt in particular which has that typical Bulgarian sour note we particularly like. However I must admit once we ran out of your
product I now make it using half a jar of your made yogurt which works just fine as the culture.
On the kefir I have never tried your product which I think is sitting in our freezer! I bought it as I thought I had lost my culture but what ever went wrong corrected itself and I just never have got round to using your product!
So we are very happy with your products just use them in a different way.
Kindest regards
Andrew

Great yogurt! I just made the second batch using a bit from the first batch to start it - delicious! I do mine for 8 hours in the Instant Pot and it’s perfect!

I think that It is great. I make asidophilus & bifidus too. I make them separate. I want mix them, but I don't know is it okay. Greek youghurt includes asidophilus and bulgarian, but not bifidus. I wonder could them mix together A & B and Bulgarian. It's a little hard to make them separate at the same time.

I order some of your Bulgarian starter this morning. I am currently having trouble making yogurt using starter from a competitor I found a couple of years ago. I had to stop making yogurt early 2018 due to health problems. The instructions for making yogurt from the other company have changed and I am not having any success.
Looking forward to making yogurt using your starter.

Everything is fine. In fact I placed and received my second order last month and it was for a larger quantity. I make an average of 1 litre a week using about 1/4 tsp plus a couple of tbsp from my last batch. I still have enough for two batches left from my first order. I learned with time and experience that the minimum time to set firm is 7 hours vs my other culture at 5 but that’s ok.

HI Ivo,
My last attempt at producing Bulgarian yogurt was successful, however, I think that it came out a little too acid. Is there anything I sould/should do to make the next “production” less acid? Can I use whey as a starter, and if so, how much? Thanks in advance for answering my questions.
Best regards,

I love the yogurt, also one of my favorite cheese is Feta.
I have been getting cultures from Cultures for Health but I haven’t been satisfied with their performance.
I’m not sure what your overall business model is but you’ll probably do very well if you offer an alternative to Cultures for Health.
I’m not saying anything, just saying.
You have been an absolute pleasure to work with and I appreciate all your help.
I will post your website in a raw milk dairy group so they may have access to your awesome cultures and your superior customer service!
Once again a pleasure. 😊

Hi Ivo,
The yoghurt exceeded all expectations. Over the last few weeks I've been accessing cultures from a number of suppliers and I would rate yours one of the best for flavour and texture. I would also add that your kefir culture is great and I've reused the original batch four times without any deterioration in quality

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.

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
