## Description

This variety pack of heirloom yogurts from Cultures For Health is the perfect introduction to yogurt making. You'll receive one of each of our favorite Scandinavian yogurt strains: Piima, Matsoni, and Viili yogurt starter. All 4 included starter cultures are mesophilic, so you won’t need a yogurt maker. They are also all heirloom cultures, meaning you can reserve a bit from every batch to continuously make more and have an essentially limitless supply. In addition to being a tasty snack and versatile ingredient, yogurt is a great source of probiotics to promote good gut health. Viili is a Finnish yogurt with a mild, sweet taste and somewhat gelatinous and creamy texture. Matsoni, otherwise known as Caspian Sea yogurt, originates in the Republic of Georgia; it is thin and custard-like with notes of honey, and is a popular choice for frozen yogurt. Piima, a variant of Scandinavian yogurt with a mild flavor and thin viscosity, is a delightful drinkable yogurt; you can also culture it with cream instead of milk for a tasty sour cream-like topping. Cultures best with pasteurized whole milk, but avoid ultra-pasteurized. For great-tasting treats with gut-healthy probiotics, Cultures For Health is here to get you started.

Review: Happy and Very Satisfied - I read several negative comments about this yogurt, I was encouraged and put it to the test. The expiration date was without problems. I am a beginner in this type of bacteria. I've been making yogurt for a while, I use the one from the store. I decided to start with this type of yogurt, I love the idea that I will always have in reserve. HEIRLOOM YOGURT comes in four small envelopes, with the name and number for identification. It comes with a basic instruction manual. I decided to ferment all 4 Heirloom families together, in 4 cups of milk. Just by the photo I see a complete and good fermentation, the smell is very pleasant. I do not separate the whey because it helps me to have more quantity for the next fermentation, also the whey is full of bacteria, and it is protein. I started with the milk at 75° F, mix the 4 envelopes together, keep the yogurt in the microwave for 22 hours, with the exterior lights on low, so that the heat that is generated inside maintains a good temperature; low heat aids in optimal fermentation. I loved this fermentation. The first batch of yogurt has turned out very well and has a very pleasant taste. For the 4 starter cups I made, I used a gallon of whole milk, pasteurized (pasteurized milk that is double pasteurized doesn't work). I put it 24 hours to ferment; then separate a part of the yogurt to make it Greek (experiment) has been left with good flavor. I like it more liquid, what I do I return a little of the serum, so it is to my liking. I never throw away the serum, I take it with the collagen or give it other uses. I have left the other part of yogurt natural, with whey (yields more), I love adding natural fruit flavors. Without a doubt I recommend this brand of yogurt, the flavor is very rich and creamy. A delicious yogurt for the whole week. He believed that if someone has not worked for him, it must be because of the expiration date, or because of some minimal error. Yogurt to ferment needs a temperature no lower than 70 °, for this reason I put it in the microwave, with the outside light on. Another reason may be double pasteurized milk. Yogurt should never be put in milk at more than 110 F°, the bacteria are killed by the heat. Nor should it be put in very cold milk, it has to be exactly as the manual says. He created it is a matter of checking what mistake is being made, but that this yogurt works, IF IT WORKS. Greetings!
Review: DOES NOT WORK - Item did not work at all. Instructions were followed exactly and the milk never set.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What kind of milk should I use?**
A: Any pasteurized dairy milk can be cultured into yogurt; avoid ultra-pasteurized or UHT. Raw milk can also be used, but make sure to follow special instructions in this case. You can also use non-dairy milk, but will likely need to add thickeners.

**Q: How much yogurt can I make with this starter?**
A: Technically, infinite! All you need is a tablespoon of your previous batch per cup of milk (up to ½ gallon at a time), and you can continue the culturing cycle for as long as you please.

**Q: How long does it take to make this yogurt?**
A: All you have to do is mix the starter (or yogurt from previous batch) into the milk and let it culture at 70°–77°F, which will take between 12 and 48 hours to culture and another 6 to set in the fridge.

**Q: How do I know when my yogurt is set?**
A: You'll know your yogurt is set once it appears less uniform and looks like one solid mass. The yogurt should be relatively smooth and should pull away from the side of the container. But keep in mind, it doesn't fully set till it's been refrigerated.

**Q: How long will the finished yogurt last?**
A: When kept in a refrigerator (at 40°–45°F), finished yogurt maintains re-culturing viability for 7 days, and remains edible for 2 weeks. Whey will last about 6 months in the refrigerator, but if it looks or smells bad at any point, discard it.

### ⭐ Don't buy yougart starters

Yougart starter is no good. Instuctions are strange. Failed for both times I used it. Gave up using it tired of waisting milk. Have no trouble using supermarket starter.
