Preparing yoghourt

▯
Heat up pasteurized milk to 90°C on the cooktop to
avoid disturbing the yoghourt cultures. Important!
Allow the milk to cool to 40°C in a water bath to
avoid destroying the yoghourt cultures.
▯
Long-life milk (UHT milk) does not need heating.
▯
Stir natural yoghourt with declared yoghourt
cultures into the milk (1 - 2 teaspoons of yoghourt
for every 100 ml). Thoroughly whisk in the yoghourt
with an eggbeater.
▯
In the case of yoghourt ferment, pay attention to the
notes on the packaging.
▯
Pour the yoghourt into rinsed jars. Close with lid.
▯
Note: you can disinfect the rinsed jars in your
steamer at the steaming level for 20 minutes before
pouring in the yoghourt. Make sure you allow the
jars to cool down before you pour the yoghourt in.
