Cultures for Health, Vegan Yogurt, Pack of 4, .06oz (1.6g)

Funcionó muy bien en leche de soya espesa perfecto incluso te recomiendo filtrar al final con una malla limpia para que quede como el yogurt convencional ojo en consistencia si está muy bien pero no hace milagros la soya siempre sabrá a soya pero pues si eres vegano eso buscarás

This is a nice product. Glad that it's vegan and I like the packaging and easy instructions. Worked well when making vegan yogurt.

I successfully used the Vegan Yogurt starter for years and recently purchased 3 new pkgs, one through Amazon and two directly from the company itself. Each pkg contains 4 individual packets of starter. I made 3 separate attempts to make yogurt using the same type of milk (soy), the same yogurt maker (EuroCuisine) and the same process I have always successfully used in the past. After my first attempt using this new starter failed, I tried a second time with a new packet from the same pkg. When that also failed, I tried a third packet from a second pkg, thinking that the one pkg might have had a bad batch of starter, but that also failed. I then tested the temperature of my yogurt maker and found that it was within the recommended range. I finally emailed Cultures for Health to see if they had made any changes to the formula and found out that they had, in fact, changed the formula. At that point, I checked the ingredients listed on my newest pkgs of starter, compared those to the ingredients of the older formulation and found the two formulations were very different. There was no indication on the website or on the newest pkgs to alert me to the change of formula so I never thought to check the ingredients at the time of purchase or before using. I have since purchased a different brand of vegan starter and made a successful batch of yogurt so I can only conclude that it is the Cultures for Health new starter that is at fault for the previous failures.

After seeing the back and forth between positive and negative reviews, I decided to buy one to try. I’m going to preface this with: I’ve made plenty of plant yogurt before both with probiotics and previous yogurt as a starter and store bought milk (Silk with all the gums and whatnot) and have always had success. I already got a refund for this product because I knew something wasn’t right when nothing even started to happen after 4 hours and you’re only supposed to let it sit for 6-8 hours. This review is to warn others to buy with caution if you must. For the first batch, I used 3 cups silk soy milk & 1 cup coconut milk to 1 sachet of starter. After 8 hours, it was still liquid. I thought maybe it didn’t work because I used store bought milk. So I whipped up 4 cups of homemade soy milk (soy beans and water only) and used another sachet and this time I just let it sit overnight (12+ hours) for good luck. Still nothing. So with two different types of milk, I think it’s safe to conclude that the starter doesn’t work. And if it worked for some people on here, they got lucky with a good batch.

Pedí estos cultivos hace mucho tiempo, pero desde el principio no salieron bien. Se formó en hongo de color rosa en el yogurt y el sabor no estaba bien desde el primer día.
