4. Can I use heavy whipping cream instead of milk?

   - Yes, you can use heavy whipping cream to make what we call “yogurt cream,” similar to the best version of sour cream or crème fraîche you can ever make. If it isn’t thick enough, you can also strain it through an organic cotton cheesecloth to make very nice cream cheese.

   - You can upgrade your order to get our tried and tested culture starter to ensure that your yogurt-making adventures get off to a delicious and delightful start. You can also use any culture starter, even using other store-bought yogurts as a starter.

6. What types of milk can I use to make yogurt?

   - You can use any type of milk you prefer, including cow's milk, goat's milk, sheep's milk, or plant-based alternatives like almond, coconut, soy, and oat milk. Each type will have a slightly different flavor and texture.

7. How long does homemade yogurt last?

   - Homemade yogurt typically lasts for about 1-2 weeks when stored in the refrigerator. Always ensure it’s kept in airtight containers to maintain freshness and prevent contamination.

8. Can I flavor my yogurt during the fermentation process?

   - It’s best to add flavorings such as fruit, honey, or vanilla after the fermentation process to avoid affecting the culture’s activity. Add these ingredients when you're ready to eat or serve the yogurt.

9. What is the optimal temperature for yogurt fermentation?

   - The optimal temperature for yogurt fermentation is around 110°F (43°C). This temperature helps the bacteria thrive and turn the milk into yogurt.

10. Can I make yogurt without a yogurt maker?

    - Indeed, while a yogurt maker isn't an absolute necessity, having one can significantly enhance the yogurt-making process. You can use any setup that can maintain the milk at a consistent temperature, such as a preheated oven (turned off), a slow cooker, or even an insulated thermos.
