This is the product recommended in the book, "Breaking the viscous cycle" she claims after a 24 hour ferment there is 700 billion cu's per cup. Pretty sure it just depends on how long you "cook" it. I do 24 hours.

Dear Kathy, I can not answer exactly your question. I just can copy the ingredients: skim milk poweder, sucrose, acid lactic bacteria (L.bulgaricus, S. thermophilus, L. acidophilus). No more info availabale. But it works for me and this one is reccommended in the book "Breaking the vishious circle" regarding SCD diet.Have a nice day. Natalie

The ingredients listing includes L. bulgaricus, S. thermophilus, and L. acidophilus. You might want to contact the company at www.yogourmet.com. Hope this helps.

I don't remember what the ingredient list said, but most yogurt starters contain some sugar which is used up during the culturing process. The end product won't have any sugar in it.

You can use any plain yogurt: fat-free, full fat, 2%, greek yogurt, whatever. I would not use a flavored yogurt, but that may work. I usually use as the starter the end of the last batch of yogurt that I made. But that loses potency after a period of time, I find. When that happens, I either cut that 50/50 with a store bought yogurt or I just use 100% of the store bought as the starter. I have used the packaged starter that came with my machine. Good luck.

Another site lists these as what it contains: Bifidobacterium longum, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Bifidobacterium infantis, Lactobacillus lactis, Lactobacillus acidophilus DDS-1, Lactobacillus reuteri, Lactobacillus salivarius, Lactobacillus brevis, Lactobacillus plantarum, Streptococcus thermophilus, Bifidobacterium bifidum, Lactobacillus bulgaricus, Lactobacillus casei, Lactobacillus rhamnosus

The probiotic blend listed on the label has Bulgarian Yogurt (milk) Concentrate, and Eastern European Wild Kefir containing all the different probiotic strands, that are too many to name. Hope this helps :-)

Their "regular" yogurt starter is SCD legal, but the CBA Probiotic is not. The 4.5 hrs. refers to normal yogurt making and not the SCD yogurt which takes 24 hrs.

I just use regular plain 0% fat greek yogurt (Fage brand). Works fine. I have also used some of the homemade yogurt as a starter for the next batch - that worked fine too.

There are two cartons of 42 each. Inside eanch carton are six 7-count foil strips. The strils are perforated so you can tear just one away. That way the foil keeps the probiotics fresh.This is an amazing product that has b.infantis a great strain recommended by gastroenterologists. Also, it is gradual release which protects the delicate probiotics from heat, moisture and stomach acid so they get to your lower intestine alive to do their work.

I save my home-made yogurt and re-use as starter. Don't know why, but I usually do this for at least 4 times and then start with another 6-ounce yogurt (have read something somewhere on that doing it a few times but not always). Others can feel free to correct me on this. My first starter was just 6 ounces of the Stoneyfield yogurt.

I don't think so. There is one that does come with packets the starter pack I think. Yogurt is very good

Sean, I think there are 30 strains of probiotics from raw bulgarian yogurt--so 'guess so.

I read that you can save starter up to 4 or 5 times, but as a jar of Natren yogurt starter lasts me up to 6 months using it for a weekly batch, I don't save any for starter.

Tanya, I get a little package of plain yogurt to start mine. It works great. I make the greek yogurt. You will have to strain it to make Greek yogurt. Mine tastes better than the Fage brand. I use2 tablespoons of Fage to start mine, so I can eat the rest. But you can start it with regular yogurt. I am thinking about doing a Youtube about how to do it. I have some great tips that will make it easy to do

Yogurt can be made using a live active culture from existing yogurt. I took a regular store brand and used it the first time. Since then I just use a couple of table spoons of my last batch for my new one. I make yogurt every seven to ten days and have not need to get any fresh starter in well over a year and a half to two years.

Probably about 2 cups. You will have a lot of whey if you strain it for 2 hours. You can always forgo the straining and have about 4 cups of regular yogurt
