Pot Set UHT Milk Yoghurt

Make Yoghurt with UHT, or Long Life Milk, using Mild or Tangy (Dairy-Based) Cultures.

Follow these directions carefully using regular, full cream, UHT milk. Add our Yoghurt Starter Culture and you will have the best homemade yoghurt ever, no preservatives or additives. Drain this yoghurt in a tight weave cheesecloth and you can make a soft cheese too.

Selection of culture:

Use the Mild and Tangy dairy-based cultures in conjunction with one of the probiotic cultures to make beautiful gut-healthy probiotic soy yoghurt.

The Non-Dairy Yoghurt Culture is not recommended for dairy use as it has a different ratio of the bacteria species which can produce a dairy yoghurt with an undesirable texture.

Note: The amount of culture used for one litre is VERY SMALL.

Low-fat milk can also be used, although the yoghurt may not be as creamy and thick as the full cream version.

Directions for Thick Greek Style, Pot Set Yoghurt

  • Heat the milk to between 37° and 43° C to avoid unbalanced culture growth and place into a yoghurt maker. This can be easily done by standing the carton into hot tap water for a few minutes.

Warming the UHT or long life milk.

  • Add in two or three drops of calcium chloride, mixing well. We have found that two or three drops of calcium chloride will help improve the curd and produce yoghurt that is just a little thicker.
  • Add the powdered milk, mixing well. The use of powdered milk is optional but highly recommended, it adds dairy solids which assists in achieving a thicker yoghurt.
  • Mix in your yoghurt starter culture and optional probiotic culture, mixing in well to ensure the culture is evenly distributed throughout the milk.
  • Maintain the milk mixture temperature between 37° and 43° C for 10-12 hours, or even longer, using your yoghurt maker. 
  • For a higher bacteria count and a lower sugar content, ferment for up to 24 hours.
