Goat Yogurt Looks More Soupy Than Like a Yogurt

[Guest guest]

I started my 7 year old son on raw goat milk in July without any

problems. I purchased the yogurt maker and progurt from the pecanbread

website and started him on the goat yogurt at the end of August -- so

far so good...

One thing I notice is that the yogurt looks very soupy when I take it

out of the frig for him to eat it -- doesn't have the thick consistency

of yogurt.

The yogurt maker I purchased does not require you to put water into the

machine so I can't tell what the temperature is when I have the jars of

yogurt in the machine for 24 hours.

Any possibility the yogurt is not good when it is this soupy (after 8

hours in the frig)? Any feedback/suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Martha-

I asked the same question a while back. Goat yogurt is very watery.

You can strain the yogurt with paper coffee filters, which works

great for thickening the yogurt. Good luck! Sally (mom to Chloe-4
