Symbiota is extremely proud of offering a vegan Yoghurt culture which has NO maltodextrins, fillers or lactose! Vegan yoghurts tend to be thinner compared to dairy yogurts.
Simply warm a good quality milk, coconut cream (or homemade nut milk) to 85 degrees Celsius, add thickener (if using), reduce temperature to 42 degrees Celsius, add your vegan yogurt culture and maintain your coconut cream between 38-43 degrees Celsius for at least 8 hours. The longer you leave your yogurt to ferment the more sour it will be. Many people use dehydrators, warm water baths, preheated ovens, heating mats, thermos and more to maintain the temperature of their yogurt at a constant temperature during fermentation process.
NB: Please note it is very important to keep your culture dry. Therefore you MUST allow your sachet of culture to come up to room temperature before opening otherwise the air will condense on the culture and ruin it with moisture.
Please note this is a dried culture, shelf stable up to 3 months.
Makes 50L.
