Yogurt questions

[Guest guest]

" I sent an email to another group member to analyze the foods

we've been using "

-->Please post this to the list and we will help you too (include

how the foods are prepared- raw/cooked). Also, please include

how long you have been following the diet and whether you

started with the intro diet.

" Regarding making the yogurt (and yes, I've read the

instructions/Elaine's book, etc.): "

--> Did you read the instructions on pecanbread.com?

http://www.pecanbread.com/goatyogurt.html

There is a pictorial guide to making the yogurt, which really helps

the first time making it.

" it was suggested that goat milk from whiteegretfarms.com "

--> I have never used this brand. We really like Caprine Estates.

I know that they used to offer a discount if you joined their 2 week

automatic shipment program. I am not sure if they still have this

or not, but it's worth looking into.

" I saw that they offer another product called " probiogurt " . "

--> This yogurt has not been approved for the SCD.

" Also, when you make your own yogurt, you're supposed to start

with VERY small portions "

--> Yes, this is true. We recommend starting with 1/8-1/4 tsp

every other day to start with. The good bacteria can cause a

significant die-off of the bad guys. Go slow.

and your email to the pecanbread is very informative. Can you please tell me

how is it you check the yogurt for live bacteria.

I am just finishing the experiments and I will be posting the results on the

SCDrecipe group.
