What Our Customers Are Saying
A great yogurt for anyone. Not too tart or too runny. I had made this yogurt for about 6 years from the original starter, but I accidentally got it to hot and killed it. I recently bought new and it is happily making batches of great tasting yogurt. Customer service is very helpful talking you through the activation process.
Love the tart flavor to this. No more commercial made yogurt for me. Love the heirloom part of this so I always have culture ready for the next batch of yogurt to be made.
This Bulgarian starter is amazingly delicious and easy to culture. My first batch did not thicken super well but that was expected for the starter. The second batch was beautiful and firm. Worked within about 4 hours. I used a nice little yogurt maker and followed the directions verbatim. I recommend this starter for newbies and the taste is just wonderful. Not too tart, creamy and good.
I ordered the Bulgarian yogurt culture because the description said it was mild and creamy, and they weren't kidding! I've made about half a dozen batches now, and after culturing I strain to remove extra whey. The end product is so creamy and delicious it's hard to stop eating!
