Do I need a yogurt maker for this starter?

While this is a thermophilic starter, meaning it cultures at 105-112°F, this can be accomplished using other appliances, such as a food dehydrator, folding proofer, crockpot, thermos, pilot light or oven light, or insulated cooler with heating pad.

Will my vegan yogurt be a similar consistency to dairy yogurt?

Soy milk is the only kind that will thicken naturally, but you can add pectin or gelatin to any non-dairy milk to help it along. You should also keep in mind that plant-based yogurt often doesn't set until chilled.

How much yogurt can I make with this starter?

It comes with 4 packets of starter, each of which can culture up to a half gallon of milk; you can also use 2 packets at a time to culture up to 4 gallons. Thus, you can culture a maximum of 8 gallons of milk total, resulting in ~4 gallons of yogurt.

Can I use store-bought non-dairy milk to make vegan yogurt?

In general, yes; however, additives and preservatives can interfere with the culturing process. We particularly don't recommend using commercial almond milk. The best way to ensure you have natural milk is to make your own—it's easier than you think.

Is it possible to make a dairy-free yogurt starter that's heirloom-style?

Short answer: No...but there's a loophole. If you can tolerate a bit of dairy, you can maintain a dairy mother culture (such as our Heirloom Yogurt Starter), re-culturing it weekly, and simply use some of that batch to culture your plant-based milk.

Awful, awful, awful!!!!!

DO NOT BUY!!! If I could give it no stars, I would. You will waste your money. This culture is awful and does not make yogurt. See photo. It’s all water!!!!! Do not buy it. The company does not stand by their products. These cultures are non-returnable because it’s a food product. This product used to make excellent yogurt. I don’t know what happened. I have lost so much money in both the soy milk and the culture itself. Several of my yogurt friends have experienced the same. You’ve been warned. Don’t risk $10 a batch on this garbage.

Yogurt did not set up

Of packets purchased about 3/4 of packets have not set up and product is a warm soy milk. I have had to rescue almost every batch by adding a few tablespoons of a plain dairy yogurt so not to waste non sweetened soy milk. Looks like variable amts in little packets. Expiration date is 09/24. Have followed instructions carefully.
