Re: goat milk yoghurt runnier than cow?

[Guest guest]

Goat yogurt is always runnier. You chilled it before checking it, right?

Chilling helps to firm yogurt up and we never stir it or disturb it really,

until it's been chilled for 6-8 hrs. But, yes, it's normal. Dripping it may

help. Line a colander with a clean tea towel and set it over a larger bowl....

pour in the yogurt and set the whole thing into the fridge to drip for a few

hours. The longer, the thicker. That will remove some of the tartness, too.

goat milk yoghurt runnier than cow?

Thanks for responses to my last post I don't want to clutter the

list (??) so here's my next question, lol.

I made yoghurt for the first time. One batch of cow and one goat milk.

The cow yoghurt came out as expected, like at the store. The goat

yoghurt is almost runny, but tastes ok (and pretty tart). Is this

normal?

Yes, it's normal. If you don't want it as tart (and runny), then you can

drip it in the refrigerator by lining a colander with a cloth and setting

the colander in a bowl. This drips out the liquid, makes it firmer, and less

tart.

Hope that helps,

Merika,

I make cow yogurt for myself and my husband and goat yogurt for my children.

It is completely normal for the goat yogurt to be runny and the cow yogurt to be

more of a custard consistency.

I give the goat yogurt to my boys in their sippy cups to drink like milk.

Goat yogurt is very runny. If you drip it (and I do) almost half of the volume

of yogurt will drip off as tart water. I drip it in a fine mesh,

dishwasher-safe coffee filter cone (which they sell at Target) propped in empty

large Purity Farms ghee jar.

What is left is like cream cheese or chevre, in fact, with salt added it would

pass as chevre. My son loves pesto, so I mixed the dripped goat yogurt with

some pesto and spread it in sections of red bell pepper and he loved it.
