Guest guest Posted August 3, 2009 Report Share Posted August 3, 2009 Hi, I am really having a bad day with Yogurt!!! I made a quart of goats milk yogurt in my EuroCusine yougurt maker. At about 9:45 this morning the yogurt maker shut off and in my haste to get out the door for my daughter's play group, I forgot to restart the timer. It had only fermented 15 hours. I just realized this at 7:35 PM. I just turned it back on for 11 more hours. Should I just throw this batch out? I am getting way too frustrated!!! Thanks, Val UC 2007 Asacol 1600 MG SCD 6 weeks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 3, 2009 Report Share Posted August 3, 2009 That's okay, it happens. I would do less than 11 though, because it was fermenting during the time that it was off, especially in summer, even if more slowly, eventually. I'd add in maybe 5-6. Also, which starter did you use - did it contain acidophilus or not - because acidophilus prefers a somewhat lower temperature. Did you take the temperature before turning it on again. It might not even need as much as that. Mara > Hi, > > I am really having a bad day with Yogurt!!! I made a quart of goats > milk yogurt in my EuroCusine yougurt maker.

Guest guest Posted August 3, 2009 Report Share Posted August 3, 2009 I used yogourmet Freeze Dried yogurt starter. The ingredients are: Skim Milk Powder Sucrose ascorbic acid, lactic bacteria(L. Bulgaricus, S.thermophilus and L.acidophilus). I live outside of tampa so the temp in the house is about 78 degrees. > > > Hi, > > > > I am really having a bad day with Yogurt!!!

Guest guest Posted August 3, 2009 Report Share Posted August 3, 2009 Was the yogurt cold or lukewarm before you started it up again? Mara > I used yogourmet Freeze Dried yogurt starter.

Guest guest Posted August 3, 2009 Report Share Posted August 3, 2009 I have no idea. I imagine the answer would be room temperature. > >> > >>> Hi, > >>> > >>> I am really having a bad day with Yogurt!!! I made a quart of goats > >>> milk yogurt in my EuroCusine yougurt maker.

Guest guest Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 Hi Val- I know your frustration as I too have ruined a few batches. This happened to me- and I went on a re-fermented it. It was probably OK, but with the extra fermenting it was really tart- so I tossed it. I have also burnt the milk once too- made awful yogurt. I finally came to the conclusion that SCD cooking was a learning curve and that I would get better at it in time. I hate to waste food, but after a few yogurt mishaps, I decided to just toss it out and start over rather than try to " fix " it. Most of my batches have turned out just fine. I try to be sure I am a couple of batches of yogurt " ahead " so that I don't run out. I tried making goat milk yogurt for the first time the other day and it is really runny compared to the regular milk yogurt. Not sure what I'm going to do with that one. Good luck and hang in there!

Guest guest Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 I tried making goat milk yogurt for the first time the other day and it is really runny compared to the regular milk yogurt. Not sure what I'm going to do with that one.I'm pretty sure that's just the way it is. I've made goat yogurt at least 10 times, and every time it turns out runny. When I drip 2 quarts of it, I end up with about one quart of dripped yogurt. It's rather annoying, and I can't wait to get back on half and half yogurt! I would assume though that there's nothing wrong with your runny goat yogurt.

Guest guest Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 I am making goats milk yogurt and it is really runny. That's all she wrote!!! I tried to drain it, but the coagulates is much messier than cows milk. I am allergic to cows milk so I have no choice but to go forward. I have resigned myself to drinking it. It gets a little thicker in the fridge and tastes like butter milk. I love butter milk so at least I don't have to give that up!!!! Can I ask why goats milk? Do you have a cows milk issue? > > > > Hi, > > > > I am really having a bad day with Yogurt!!! I made a quart of goats milk yogurt in my EuroCusine yougurt maker.
