Well Ivo I like yogurt and would like to finally find the right culture to make my own. I have tried other suppliers selling Bulgarian yogurt but all were a disappointment. It's the only yogurt I have enjoyed in the past and would like to find that special taste again.

We loved the yogurt! For a long time I have been making yogurt by using store bought yogurt as a starter but by using your yogurt starter the task is easier but most importantly the yogurt tastes better.
We really love the Rose flavor starter!
I use a gallon of 2% milk, heat it to between 180°F and 212°F then cool down to 110°F and add 1/2 teaspoon of Bacillus Bulgaricus yogurt starter.
Then I pour the milk/starter into 4 wide mouth 1-quart ball jars and put on plastic lids with silicone seals.
I then place the jars into a small well insulated cooler like a Yeti or RTIC then fill with hot water up to just below the lids and leave overnight. My hot water is set to 115 F.
In the morning I have perfect yogurt that I place into the refrigerator.

Dear Ivo,
I can't wait to experience this unique product.
Rest assured that once I share with all my friends and family, you will receive more orders. This is the same when my wife and I travel. Either several friends want to join us or want us to share our travel itinerary so they too can do the same.

Your culture made an excellent yogurt… light and creamy with a great taste! Only…I like it a little thicker; even after transforming into Greek yogurt. Thanks.

I made our first batch of yoghurt last week and it was delicious! It was the perfect consistency and the taste was amazing, it had a mild tang without being really tart.

It was super easy to make and I will definitely be making it again.

From a customers perspective it was a really positive purchase, the website was easy to use, the product arrived really quickly, the instructions were very clear and easy to follow and the end result was delicious. I will be sure to tell all of my friends to try it out.

I am buying your product for quite some time, like it a lot. And I need professional advice from you.
When I make yogurt right from your starter ( bring milk to boil, cool down to 43C, put it into yogurt maker for approximately 5 hours) it is fermented with nice consistency and what is more important for me neutral buttery taste !! Since this yogurt is heirloom I use some portion of it from first batch to make next one. Same procedure , but consistency is more liquid ( which is not big deal) but taste is obviously more acidic , not mild anymore. Third batch is even worse……Now why is it happening, why it doesn't hold same nutral taste? Is it because I put too much of already made yogurt to hot milk ( making second,third batch) , I leave yogurt on the bottom of jar and on walls and pour milk into jar then stir, obviously it is more then table spoon if its matter. Or may be other reasons? And another question why on top of jar yogurt is thicker and towards bottom is thinner, this picture is more profound on second, third batch….Thank you

The yogurt turned out nothing short of expectations. Amazing taste!
I usually leave it overnight 10-12 hours. I suspect it takes a bit longer for the bacteria to develop due to the higher elevation and the dryness in Calgary. That's, of course, based totally on my amateurish opinion. Nevertheless, that's how I like it... and the rest of my family and friends find it heavenly.
Needless to say I'll be ordering more pretty soon. The days of buying yogurt from the store are now gone forever.

I have been making yogurt non stop with your Bac. Bulgaricus yogurt starter--just reusing it to start the next batch which has been working perfectly. My partner and I devour it so much that I am making a new 2 liter batch 3 times a week. It is absolutely delicious every time. Our two dogs (big beefy akitas) stand nearby when we're eating it so they can lick the bowls when we're done! Thanks so much and look forward to trying more types of yogurt - including non dairy.

I buy yogurt as it completes my meals, be it meat, vegetable, rice, bread- yogurt goes equally well with all -
I love to make your yogurt as i like tangy, tart and sour tasting natural yogurt, which is almost impossible to find in China, where i currently reside- so the only choice is to make it at home - seeing my yogurt turning out as i want gives me great pleasure nothing less than a sense of achievement

I have been using your yogurt for quite a while now. My last order lasted me for a year. I still have some from France from 2015 in the freezer. I do like your ferment and will keep buying it even though the family brings me quite a supply. We eat quite a bit of it every day. However, I place it in the oven, light on, well wrapped with a quilt, around 17h30 till the next morning 9h. It gets the degree of acidity that we find in the yogurt that we were used to.

Thanks! The yogurt is great! I just made my third batch yesterday. I really like the consistency and the amount of tartness.
I have now tried a couple of different methods for making the yogurt. All times I have used the Yogourmet yogurt maker instead of just wrapping it in a towel to keep it warm. I have varied the amount of time I leave it, though... I usually do 24 hours to make sure all the lactose is gone, but that makes it much more acid, so I've been experimenting with leaving the Yogourmet plugged in 12 hours, then disconnecting it and letting it sit another few hours. (The 24 hour method is what is recommended for the Specific Carbohydrate Diet for people who can't tolerate any lactose... I don't need to be quite that strict, but used to have to be for other people in my family.)
Also, for the last two batches I found I don't even have to heat up the milk first if I use ultra-pasteurized milk. Sometimes that's the only milk I can get that is organic, and, though I don't like the idea of it being ultra-pasteurized because it probably kills off a lot of good stuff along with the bad bacteria, it makes things very easy and the result is exactly the same as if I heat up the milk first.
After making the yogurt, I strain part of it, and your yogurt maker gives great results for this. It comes out really creamy and smooth.

I am truly pleased with my purchase of the starter for Bacillus Bulgaricus. My first attempt was completely successful. I am a novice so I was a bit skeptical at first. The instructions were clear and simple to follow. The yogurt is creamy and delicious. I live in a farming community so there's plenty of high quality milk.

My family is happy with the yogurt and it has become a regular part of our diet. We enjoy flavoring it with lots of fresh fruit, berries, and nuts. Thank you for delivering a good product.

My number one reason is that I saw a TV program which suggested that the bacteria from eating yogurt regularly (full fat so it can get past stomach acid) can help to destroy fat cells and so help to regulate weight. Top of many people's wish list!
A friend told me recently about the benefits of Bulgarian yogurt so I decided to try it for myself and I am looking forward to making it from the culture. A yogurt maker bought half price from Lakeland recently works well with Greek yogurt.
By googling Bulgarian yogurt I found your site and was impressed with the information on it.
I do also enjoy the taste of yogurt.

Dear Ivo,
My reasons to buy your yogurt starter are:
1) Taste
2) Maintains healthy gut bacteria
3) Low fat replacement for cream and cream related products (eg creme frais)
Came across you via Google search and browsing. Have used a heritage starter, which I freeze immediately from each new batch but as I make a fresh batch about every 5 days I like the convenience of adding the freeze dried culture, rather than having to remember to thaw the starter out each time.
