  • Greetings!
    
    Are the cultures for your Vegan Yogurt Starter grown on any type of corn medium (dextrose or any of the other corn sugars)? Even if the final product is deemed corn free my son will react to cultures grown on corn. Thanks for your time!

  • What works best to add to improve texture of yogurt when using almond milk? Agar or tapioca starch and how much of each... Any other suggestions?
  • The type of thickener you use is a matter of personal preference. Here's an article that explains how to use the different thickeners. http://www.culturesforhealth.com/thickening-flavoring-homemade-yogurt

  • Which yogurt maker works best with the vegan yogurt starter. I plan to use almond milk. Can't have soy or dairy.
  • Any of our yogurt makers will work well for making almond milk yogurt. The important thing is to keep the yogurt between 105 and 112 while incubating, which each of the units will do.

  • This kinda goes along with the goat milk question above-
    
    I was comparing the starters to use with cow milk and this starter seems like the only one with Lactobacillus rhamnosus -
    
    if someone really wanted that strain in their cow milk based gurt - seems like they could use this culture?
    
    Just confirming :)
  • You are correct. The Vegetal Yogurt Starter is the only one we carry that contains the bacteria strain L. Rhamnosus. If someone were looking to consume that specific strain, this is the yogurt starter we have to offer.

  • First of all I am very excited about your product, but I have some questions. My son is severely allergic to wheat, eggs, milk, peanuts, tree nuts, celery (including celery seed and salt), peppers (the vegetable and anything derived from them I.e. cayenne pepper, chili powder, chili pepper. Does the starter ever come in contact with any of these items? Thank you.
  • This product is laboratory-grown on a base of barley and soy. The amounts of these products in the starter fall below the requirements for labeling. The starter is manufactured in a facility that also processes dairy products, but does not include dairy, and is produced on separate equipment.
