Guest guest Posted April 28, 2009 Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 Is it necessary to incubate the yogurt for 24hrs for someone that is NOT on the BTVC diet? If not, how long would you suggest it be incubated? Does the yogurt produce more good bacteria the longer it is incubated? Thanks, Hagen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typical directions put the fermentation time at around 4 hours. > Does the yogurt produce more good bacteria the longer it is incubated? Yes. Any reason why you wouldn't go longer? -- Cheers, DF in MA UC June '07 SCD Nov '08 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, if a longer incubation period yields more probiotics, then I would rather incubate it 24 hrs. Sometimes I don't have more milk on hand to make more yogurt, so my wife misses her yogurt for a day or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
