Guest guest Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 The original dripping bag I received with my Yogourmet maker from Lucy's Kitchen Shop. You can purchase the large muslin bags from www.mountainroseherbs.com, I believe under the tea supplies section. Lucy originally told me always drip yogurt with the inside seams out, for easier clean-up. Then, I dunk mine in boiling water to sterilize them.

Guest guest Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 I have wondered about using the dripping bag. I have dripped yogurt with a coffee filter and it works great, but then it doesn't hold much yogurt. It does have the advantage of being disposable. (Plus, it is the unbleached coffee filters, so I like that.) When you use the dripping bag, do you wash it afterwards with dish washing soap? And then when you are ready to use it again, you first dunk it in boiling water to sterilize it? Thanks for the tip on using the bag inside out! I can see how that would make it easier to clean.

Guest guest Posted March 12, 2006 Report Share Posted March 12, 2006 Hi Brent, For small amounts I use coffee filters and a strainer layed in a large mug. Throw away the water after dripping and the emptied coffee filter. For large amounts I use either cheesecloth or a smooth clean dish towel layed in a colander placed in a bowl. After I use a spatula to scrape out the cream cheese (dripped yogurt) I rinse the cheesecloth/dish towel in hot water and then add to the laundry - it goes in ahot water wash.

How does this work in helping some of us tolerate it better? This may be a stupid question, but do you consume what is dripped or what is saved on top the filter/ clothe? > Dripping separates the clear liquid galactose, makes the yogurt less tart and produces a rich, thick, creamy product that can be eaten with fruit and honey, made into dips with herbs, also frostings. Include it in recipes and use it for ice cream. Those that find it too sour or hard to digest often do better with the dripped yogurt. It is also more calorie dense if your child needs to gain weight. Carol F. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 13, 2006 Report Share Posted March 13, 2006 Hi Antoinette, > We are thinking about trying this goat yogurt thing again. What does dripping the yogurt do to it? Removes the water of hydrolysis (water produced from the splitting of the the lactose molecule), some galactose and some lactic acid. >How does this work in helping some of us tolerate it better? Some don't tolerate too much lactic acid or galactose. > This may be a stupid question, but do you consume what is dripped or what is saved on top the filter/clothe? You save the thick yogurt on top of the filter (if dripped a few hours it'll look like cream cheese) and throw away the watery stuff that dripped out of it.
