    You actually only need 1 Tbsp of liquid starter per quart of milk. Using too much starter can actually compete with the milk and cause your yogurt not to turn out or be too thin.

      @jennybaker5713 Yes, I make my wife yogurt once a week or so. I use 1/4 cup of yogurt from the last batch to start the new. I use one gallon of A2 whole milk and it always turns out perfect in the Instant Pot!

      It is impossible to find whole fat plain yogurt in my town...Would nonfat yogurt cause problems if I was using whole fat raw milk? Would just a Tbl spoon of non fat starter make it too thin?

    • @brennanbourne
      @brennanbourne 25 днів тому

      @jennybaker5713 No, a NF yogurt starter will work just fine! All you need is the bacteria to get things going. As long as it has no thickeners or preservatives, it will work! 😊

    I made my first batch with raw milk yesterday I usually use the organic milk instant pot method, after like 16 hours. I opened the raw milk and it was kind of yellowish on top and not really set up well at all. I probably should’ve put it in the jars in the fridge raider and waited to see if it was thicken up naturally, but I panicked because it was my first time and chucked it all, Il try again I’m glad I found this video.😊

    I have a Euro Cuisine Yogurt maker. Basically, it's just a "hot plate" that you set your milk in to ferment. They don't have the temp that the plate is, but I am assuming it is around 110 degrees. The instructions are to bring to boil, bring down to 110 and then set to ferment for 8 hours. I'm wondering if this would work using the same process you are using except just place in the maker without boiling first.

    Hi! I need help. Without any research & going of just what I heard I attempted to make my 1st batch of yogurt with my crockpot express. My sister uses her instapot & said that making Greek yogurt you can set it up to 24 hrs. Mine only goes as high as 12 hrs. I put in my raw milk (cream skimmed off) & added the start she gave me. Gently mixed it together. Both were cold from the fridge. Set the yogurt button & increased from 8 hrs to 12. It was getting late so after 7 hrs I reset it for 12 hrs. During this whole time the steam gage was closed. When I went to remove the yogurt the whey was already separated. I put a cheesecloth over a bowl & poured it into it. I immediately gathered the cloth to lift the "yogurt" from the whey. It reminded me of a non creamy consistency of ricatta cheese. Can this be used for anything? What went wrong?

      I just want to tell as a newer raw milk drinker. If you do start integrate it slowly into your diet... don't drink a glass at once... start with tablespoons mixed with your regular milk then slowly increase everyday until you're there otherwise you could get some GI upset. It's amazing & despite what the cdc & fda want to spread there's only a 1 in 6 million chance of being hospitalized from it, not dying. I'm so glad i made the switch as it's help my rheumatoid arthritis tremendously. My little guy loves it too!
