See more Review: Best yogurt starter - Bulgarian yogurt starter is the best. This product is very good. It makes creamy healthy yogurt. Taking out a couple of tablespoons from the middle and using for the next batch is so easy and economical. I use a VonShef yogurt maker for convenience and 1ltr UHT milk but you can just use a container and keep it warm. The VonShef also has a strainer if you prefer very thick Greek type yogurt. This starter is great and the yogurt so healthy for you. The yogurt it makes is so creamy and delicious tasting. Review: Easy to use, tasty result - I'm fairly new to home made yogurt, but this Bulgarian culture is brilliant. Success every time and the kids love it too. Just follow the recipe, and you'll have a nice firm but smooth yogurt within 9 hours (8 to ferment, 1 hour in the fridge to cool off). I've tried various timings, but never noticed much difference to taste between 8, 10 or 12 hour fermentations. What a bargain, as the culture just keeps breeding in every new batch. ## Features - Bacillus Bulgaricus is an easy-to-use no-fuss yogurt starter that makes thick, creamy and absolutely delicious Bulgarian yogurt - You can use this starter to make your own yogurt at home, with or without yogurt maker - The starter is organic and fully natural with no preservatives, additives, artificial colors or flavors.

Most yogurt starters, including Bacillus Bulgaricus, are strong enough for that purpose. Keep in mind that non-dairy milk would generally also require a thickening agent, such as agar-agar, simply because they do not have the milk fats that naturally thicken the yogurt. Also, for best results with non-dairy milks, always keep the yogurt in the fridge for a couple of hours after it had set and before you consume it. **Q: Are there instructions on how to use with half gallon of ultra pasteurized milk in instant pot?** A: Yes, just follow the directions on the package. I make yogurt in my Instant Pot all the time. I do 1 gallon at a time. 1 gallon equals 15 cups which equals 4.5 teaspoons of powdered starter. I incubate it for 10.5 hrs after I add the starter. Hope this helps. **Q: Is it necessary to add powdered milk? I usually do that when making greek yogurt with skim milk.** A: I have used every grade of milk from skimmed 0% fat to whole milk. Nothing. No, not any combination, is as creamy, tangy, and delicious as whole milk. The Bulgarian yogurt starter makes amazing tart yogurt. Feed it well. Give it good material to work with and it will reward you handsomely. So, no it does not need powdered milk. **Q: What is the CFU count after fermentation of 1 quart of non-dairy milk?** A: You can expect 25 billion CFU/g (2.5 x 10^10 CFU/g) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best yogurt starter *by E***C on 27 March 2026* Bulgarian yogurt starter is the best.
