Comment on The Easiest Crock Pot Homemade Yogurt (Vegan / Plant-Based) by kristin reichert
I don't have a temperature, sorry about that! My experience has been that the first time isn't super thick, but the more times you make it with your original starter, the thicker it will get over time.

I've trying your recipe with goat milk, goat yogurt as starter and today I added 1/2 cup powdered goat yogurt to try and get it thicker without having to strain it. My question to you is have you tested the temperature? One YouTube said take it up to 110 degrees and another said 190 degrees F. My first batch was a little to thin so I'm trying to get it thicker.

I haven't had any luck using almond milk. Soy seems to do the best. I haven't ever tried adding lemon to make cream but give it a try and let me know!

Do you think lemon can be added to make some cream and has anyone made this using store bought almond milk?

Comment on How to Get Rid of Fruit Flies by Eric
I would like to know how to get rid of fruit flies quickly when one doesn't have the time to be patient -- as you said, "But I couldn’t be that patient this time as we are selling our house" -- but in a way that is actually compatible with veganism, meaning in a way that shows compassion for these insects (since insects are by definition members of the animal kingdom). Is that possible? Thank you in advance for any response that you might have to this question.

Not sure if you ever got any resolution on your question but from all the stuff I've read, I think you might have had a better outcome if you had like the ingredients come to room temp. I think both the milk and the starter need to get to room temp before using. Just my two cents! Jenni

I think you are supposed to use unsweetened only, I think using vanilla soy was the issue. You also want the milk to be room temperature first as well as your starter. Another alternative to letting the yogurt incubate is in a styrofoam or regular cooler. While it's all wrapped up in a few layers of towels. Hope this helps!
