Guest guest Posted April 8, 2008 Report Share Posted April 8, 2008 I have heard of others successfully making raw yogurt using raw cold milk without heating the milk first. They mix the starter culture into the cold milk, put it in their yogurt maker and 24 hours later they have yogurt. The yogurt maker heats the milk vs. heating it on the stove first. One has a Yogourmet yogurt maker and another has Salton yogurt maker. Does anyone here do this? I don't have a yogurt maker so I tried it with a small jar of milk plus starter in my electric oven with the light on for 30 hours. The jar was quite warm when I took it out. It tasted like yogurt vs. clabbered milk. I used 1 T. of yogurt and 1 cup of milk. It worked well but I don't know how a larger jar, say a quart jar, would work.

Guest guest Posted April 9, 2008 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 what size jars do you use? I was concerned since a large jar would take longer for the milk to heat up with just the oven light. how much starter do you use per quart of milk? > > We make our yogurt the same way. cold milk starter or some from old batch. Put in oven with light on which is about 80 degrees and leave it for 18 hours. I like 1/3 cream and 2/3 milk for great yogurt for smoothies. > Russ > yogurt with cold milk > > > I have heard of others successfully making raw yogurt using raw cold > milk without heating the milk first.
