HOW TO MAKE YOGURT AT HIME WITH A PROBIOTIC YOGURT STARTER
Reciepe 1: Dairy Free Reciepe
Get 2 quarts (1.9 L) pasteurized, low fat or whole, cow or much preferably goat milk. “Goat milk is closer to mother’s milk, is much easier to digest and is less allergenic than cow’s milk”. Mother’s and cow’s.
Heat the milk while mixing until it comes to a boil. The boiling process will destroy harmful organisms and restructure proteins to help with the viscosity.
Let the milk cool to 100-103 F (38-40 C).
Add half a scoop (0.4 grams)of the Custom probiotic yogurt starter formula 1 or 2 per two quarts to one gallon of milk.
Mix thoroughly with a spoon or beater until all the powder yogurt starter is well dissolved.
Fill the resulting cultured milk in a yogurt maker of your choice and incubate at 100-103 F (38-40 C) for 12-24 hours. During fermentation, part of the lactose (milk sugar) converts to lactic acid, decreasing the pH values to a range of 4.25 to 4.5. The streptococci are responsible for the initial pH drop of the yogurt mix to approximately 5.0. The lactobacilli are responsible for a further decrease to pH 4.0.
Refrigerate for at least five hours.
Enjoy and share with friends and family.

Ingredients:
1 can coconut milk of choice – Native Forest brand recommended, no BPAs, or Natural Value, no gums or thickeners (recommended for GAPS/SCD)
culture of choice – Custom Probiotics (recommended for GAPS/SCD), Cultures for Health Vegetal Dairy-Free starter, or HMF Superpowder are all good, available online. Look for dairy free.

Pour a little coconut milk into a pint sized mason jar. Mix in culture of choice – a smidgeon of the Custom Probiotic, a quarter tsp of the HMF powder. Add the rest of the coconut milk. Cap tightly. Shake well. For Cultures for Health Vegetal Dairy-free starter, follow the manufacturer’s directions.
Keep warm in a yogurt warmer, in an oven with the light or pilot on, in a dehydrator set at about 95 – 100 degrees, or wrapped in a heating pad set on low. Shake occasionally. Yogurt will be mild after one day, a little more tart after two.
