My Nut Milk Yogurt

[Guest guest]

OK, my first try for almond milk yogurt worked out fine. I used a

banana instead of honey, might just try the honey next time.

I do have a few questions of you with more experience here.

1) Since it took a good six hours (and finally, two layers of heavy

towel) to get the machine up to temp, I did leave it on overnight

(had started at noon). It was thickened and sour by bedtime but I

was concerned about the sucrose in the starter. Did I need to be? I

know it might not have to go 24 hours without lactose in dairy milk,

but what about that sucrose? It seemed like it might be done once it

thickened but I just wasn't sure. By morning (20 hours when I took

it off) it was SUPER sour!

2) Are the probiotics as powerful as in dairy yogurt? I'm being very

good, just taking a half teaspoon a day for a few days but not sure I

need to be.

3) Anything else I should know about nut milk yogurt? The almond

flour worked very well. I'll probably try pecan meal and sesame seeds

next, for variety.

Thanks,
