Guest guest Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 Has anyone successfuly made 24 hour yogurt with Buffalo milk, please? The first time I used CP1 - the result was rubbery curds and whey. The second time I used sheep's yogurt as the starter, but the result was the same. Thanks, Margaret Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 4, 2011 Report Share Posted December 4, 2011 PS: there may be some advantages in making yogurt with buffalo milk (waitrose and ocado sell the milk): I found this on the internet: <<<Lactobacillus Bulgaricus and Streptococcus Thermophilus are not normal inhabitants of the specific micro flora of your gastro intestinal tract. Because of this, they do have a rough ride through your stomach - only about 15% survive wading through the gastric juices - and only about 1% of them reach the colon. Buffalo milk, however, appears to have some property that allows large numbers of active bacteria to reach the intestinal tract. The buffalo milk version of yogurt is a brilliant white because the milk is low in carotene as the buffalo convert it to Vitamin A. It contains less water than cow's milk so the milk appears thicker and makes a creamier yogurt. Buffalo milk (and the yogurt made from it) contains more fat, lactose, protein and calcium than cow's milk and also produces a stronger tasting yogurt.>>> So if anyone has succeeded in making this yogurt please tell me how it's done!

Guest guest Posted December 5, 2011 Report Share Posted December 5, 2011 Hi Margaret, I mentions here http://www.sarahmelamed.com/2009/06/comparision-of-camel-cow-goat-and-bu\ ffalo-milk/ that buffalo yoghurt is much thicker and creamier. Our yoghurts quite often separate and need a good stir (or we could pour off some whey). You've tempted us to give it a try (will have to get the milk first) - will let you know what happens. Best wishes, Sandy > > > > Has anyone successfuly made 24 hour yogurt with Buffalo milk, please? The first time I used CP1 - the result was rubbery curds and whey.

Guest guest Posted December 5, 2011 Report Share Posted December 5, 2011 I think the problem may have been that I didn't have the right culture: neither CP1 nor Maynard's sheep's milk gave a good result. The curds were very rubbery; it didn't help to stir the results! I find CP1 makes excellent goat's yogurt - nicely set.
