5 pk Yogurt starters Viili, Piima, Filmjolk, Amasi, Buttermilk Heirloom culture

Description

With this listing you will receive 5 Heirloom Yogurts (Piima, Short Viili, Filmjolk, Amasi and Buttermilk). They are dehydrated for easier shipping and can be rehydrated very simply once you receive them. Please refer to instructions below. If you have any questions or concerns, please message me and I will happily assist you. You may substitute any one of the included yogurts for Matsoni, Long Viili or Skyr starter, just let me know at the time of ordering.
To rehydrate, pour the culture into a pint size glass jar, add 2 cups whole milk (cultures love fat), stir well and cover with a breathable cloth (coffee filter works great) and rubber band. Let it culture for 24 to 48 hours at room temperature. When it thickens, you can tip the jar and it should pull away from the jar as a mass instead of being liquidy. One it gets thick you can pull 1/4 cup from it and and now start a bigger batch at a quart. The basic ratio is 1 tbsp of starter to 1 cup of milk. Since these are true heirloom yogurts you can keep doing that indefinitely. Once you get your start from the already done yogurt now you can flavor it. Just add fruits, add it to smoothies or you can make your own chip dip, ranch, french onion etc. You can even take the yogurt and strain it further with a fine mesh strainer or reusable coffee filter that you can find at most stores and get even more of they whey to come off. It makes a thick cheese.
*Raw Milk*
Please note if you are using raw milk, you need to pasteurize, as it can overpower the bacteria in the yogurt culture. Since you are getting more than one yogurt, its best to culture them either one at a time or in closed jars and preferably far from each other, so their unique bacteria dont cross contaminate. Also, please use clean jars and utelsils for each yogurt each time, again to prevent cross contamination.
If you encounter a problem, please give me a chance to help you. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions, concerns or requests.
