Re: question for anyone using custom probiotics yogurt starter

[Guest guest]

The only change in tartness that I've found is to change the type of

milk - ex. I use slim milk for my yogurt and it is much tarter and

glumpier than my son's which is made with goat's milk and comes out

smoother and lighter tasting.

BTW, I've also found that I can use less starter without changing

the taste or consistency (and no noticable behavior changes,

either), but, of course, I can't measure the lactose content in my

kitchen. When my son gets too much lactose tho' he used to break

out in excema and we haven't had a flare in a year or so.

Hope that helps!
