An alternative to your oven method of turning it on and off, what works really well for me is putting it into the oven with the oven light on. It keeps it at the perfect temperature just with the heat from the lightbulb.
I have a soy milk machine that makes 1/2 gallon at a time, I make it twice to get one gallon. I boil at medium low for 10 - 15 minutes. The milk tastes better, lasts longer in the refrigerator than it did when I used it straight from the machine. the yogurt is thicker than it was before I started boiling it. I usually make 2 or 3 quarts of yogurt and drink the milk. Using the machine is easier than not for me.
Hi bianca, I put my yoghurt to ferment inside my oven too but I leave the little light on and it produces a constant temperature and works a treat. Thanks for video.
The thing with the possible metallic taste is true... A vegan YT channel suggested using a metal thermos bottle, I tried and the taste sucked. Your recipe is MUCH better, I made the yogurt this past weekend
Hi again bianca , before becoming vegan I used to make my home made kefir from raw organic milk using live kefir grains, It healed my gut and body after months of anti biotics. I literally asked God for help and found kefir making on line. Of course now vegan, no more stealing the baby calves milk. The probiotics and yeasts in kefir are very different from yoghurt and are amazing for health and though I now make my own soy yoghurt which is loaded with good bacteria, my body started to miss the kefir. Of course the live grains need the lactose to thrive but I’ve made a batch today using freeze dried kefir culture in my home made soy milk and fingers crossed it will work out. The bacteria in kefir is incredible and an amazing live food that heals. I’ll let you know how it turns out. 💚
That sounds interesting, Christine! Good luck with your project! I want to try water kefir at some point. Fermentation is fun and fermented foods are so healthy. I believe a lot of people could solve their digestion problems if they regularly ate fermented foods!
Thank you so much! I will try your method. I’ve made it with regular milk and it came out perfect in the yogurt maker. I tried with almond milk and it was too runny. Tonight I’m using coconut milk 🤞🏽 I want to try your recipe and method though. I hope it works out. I’ll keep you updated.
BIANCA'S KITCHEN well the coconut milk was just as runny, if not more. It was lite coconut milk in the can. Maybe I needed to use whole fat coconut milk. Well I’m going to buy my soy milk and plain soy yogurt and try again. I will keep you updated. First, I’m going to try my yogurt maker though. If not, then I will do it your way. I love yogurt and don’t want to give up. 😊👍
Right, I think they do indeed use the whole fat one for coconut yogurt. For my soy yogurt, use regular soy milk, unsweetened and not low fat (you'll hardly see low fat soy milk at stores anyway, only a few brands like West Soy make it). I use Aldi's organic plain soy milk, results are always great!
Hey Bianca,i just stumbled upon your video,since i am into making my own soy yougurt. The thing is that this morning i used 2 cups of soy milk with 2 probiotics capsules,and after 10 hours happened. I was thinking that in 8 hours it should be done,but as you said here it needs 2 days,or even more. So i will wait for 1&1/2 more days,to reach the desired consistency,since it hasn't gone bad,as i was afraid. But i didn't stir it with spoon or fork,because that would give it a metallic taste. Should i do it,and if yes,should i do it in the start,or after some hours? And something else. I remember doing soy yogurt in the summer,with just plain store bought soy milk,and 3-4 tbsp of plain store bought soy yogurt, then i left it for 2 days to ferment and it was a success. Some days ago i tried the same method,but it had gone bad after 2 days,so i thought i try the probiotics. Hope i get an amswer to know what i am doing wrong this time. Thank you and have a Happy New Year!
Hi, you definitely have to stir it in the beginning, using a wooden spoon or a silicone spatula. If you stir it and still no fermentation happens, you could try a different brand of vegan probiotics. Also, if you ferment it outside the oven the room temperature changes in winter can affect/slow down the process. If the yogurt goes bad like it happened to you, the reason is most likely germs in the bowl or in the soy milk or in the place where you ferment it. Fermentation always is a learning process that includes trial and error. Good luck and Happy New Year!
@@BiancasKitchen Thanks a lot for your answer! Maybe i should sterilise my glass jar in the oven next time. And give it a stir with my spatula.Oh,and leave it in the oven without opening the door,to let it warm and ferment. Those were useful advice,thanks a lot,i appreciate you taking the time. Happy New Year you too! 🙏
Sounds good♥ ♥ ♥ Will you post it on your FB? I'd like to share it there and also save it (Facebook has a "saved links" function, so handy for recipes)
So far I've never used rejuvelac in anything, so I can't give advice on that. But it's a probiotic liquid, so I think it should be worth a shot. If you try it, please share the results!
I love the idea that you can always multiply it by keeping 2 tbsp, just like you do with sourdough
Just wanted to let you know I made the yogurt again, this time incubated with yogurt from the first batch I made. It was even better!!!!!
I know, for some reason it just gives the best result!
Made a double batch (we're a family of four), it will be ready tomorrow! Can't wait to try it!

It's so great that foods like this already include probiotics, so one doesn't have to buy supplements anymore! Also love fermented veggies, yum
I made the yogurt and used it in a smoothie with berries - so refreshing!
Love the combo blueberries & plant yogurt!
I rally love that you make recipes that are useful for your other recipes, like using this yogurt for making the cheese from your latest tutorial!

Thanks for explaining all the steps, super helpful for beginners like me👍
Fermentation is SO interesting♥ good vid!
Recipe sounds good and I LOVE the yummy presentation!
My market doesn't carry ANY soy yogurt at all, so your recipe comes in handy. Going to use Kite Hill or Forager as a starter!
Great! I've always wanted to make something fermented. The yogurt looks SO good, yum
Thanks a lot for this. Thanks a lot
Love your videos, they always make me hungry!
Thanks for the video! I'll use it for making vegan frozen yogurt!
After an unsuccessful attempt last year, I can use a foolproof method to make vegan yogurt, so I'll go for yours! The yogurt looks great
Wow, have to try this!
Hey girl, your channel rocks 😀👍 I became a subscriber
Thank you!
Will send my Mom the link, she wants to try some vegan recipes. The yogurt and the jam look so yummy
UPDATE: She actually made the yogurt and LOVED it! She also got on youtube and subscribed to you!
Awesome! And thank you so much for recommending my channel!
Currently trying to include more probiotics into my diet, this tutorial comes in handy :-)
I saw your IG posts and have been curious to learn about the details. Going to make a batch!😻
Just found your channel and subscribed, your recipes look so yummy
Thank you!!!
Will make it with my homemade soy milk!

I know, almond milk without any additional binder doesn't work too well. Coconut milk shouldn't be a problem, a lot of people say it works.
BIANCA'S KITCHEN well the coconut milk was just as runny, if not more. It was lite coconut milk in the can. Maybe I needed to use whole fat coconut milk.

Yes, I'll post on Facebook today or tomorrow
Which brand of soymilk and yogurt did you used? Can i use kirkland soymilk??
You can use any brand that is unsweetened and unflavored. I used Aldi's organic soy milk (Simply Nature, their own brand) and Nancy's soy yogurt.
Can I substitute the capsules for rejuvelac?
So far I've never used rejuvelac in anything, so I can't give advice on that. But it's a probiotic liquid, so I think it should be worth a shot. If you try it, please share the results!
For sure I will! Thanks!
😀Nice!!!
Do you also have a soy milk recipe? I'd love to make the yogurt with homemade soy milk!
Working on it!
If use probiotic vegan, which billion? Can i use 100 billion?
Yes, of course.
