You can use a variety of dairy-based milks with our Bulgarian Yogurt Starter Culture. While the culture is formulated to ferment across milk types, the texture and flavor of your final yogurt will depend on the milk you choose:

Non-Homogenized Milk: Expect a yogurt with a "malai" or cream layer on top. It might appear grainier.

A2 Milk: Your yogurt may not be as thick and may contain more whey, but it will still offer all the probiotic benefits.

Full-fat Milk: Provides a richer, creamier texture, which most closely resembles traditional Bulgarian yogurt.

Regardless of the milk type, you will still reap the full probiotic benefits. Thus, the culture is adaptable, but the final product's characteristics can be fine-tuned based on your milk choice.

We completely understand the appeal of using readily available local "dahi" starter, especially when it's free. However, there are distinct advantages to using Bulgarian Yogurt Starter Culture:

Probiotic Diversity: Our Bulgarian Yogurt Starter contains a balanced mix of beneficial bacteria, including Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus, Streptococcus thermophilus, Bifidobacterium lactis, Lactobacillus acidophilus, and more. This complex blend can offer a wider range of health benefits compared to typical local starters.

Consistency: The culture produces yogurt with a consistent taste and texture, batch after batch, something that can be hard to achieve with a local starter that may vary in its bacterial composition.

Taste & Texture: Bulgarian yogurt is known for its unique tangy taste and creamy texture, which is different from the milder flavor and variable texture of "dahi."

Can I reuse the Bulgarian Yogurt Starter Culture?

Our culture blend includes Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp bulgaricus, Streptococcus thermophilus, Bifidobacterium lactis, and more. These beneficial bacteria contribute to a healthy gut and can enhance your overall well-being.

While Greek yogurt is thick and tangy, Bulgarian yogurt is creamier with a higher ratio of certain beneficial bacteria. Both types offer similar probiotic profiles, but the Bulgarian variant provides a unique, rich taste experience.

Whether it's hot or cold, we've got you covered. Keep your fermenting yogurt in a warm place during cold seasons, and in a cool area when it's hot. Our culture is resilient and will adapt to your home conditions to give you the best results.
