  • If you've ventured into making homemade coconut yoghurt, you've probably discovered that it's not easy to achieve the texture of the store bought ones.
    Most coconut yoghurt recipes require some kind of thickener to turn it into spoonable, creamy yoghurt. On top of that, different brands of coconut milk have varying percentages of coconut pulp to water, that can make a big difference to the texture of your yoghurt.
    But, don't worry because we've been doing lots of testing in the Luvele kitchen and we've got a perfect coconut yoghurt recipe with no added thickener.

    I live in Northern California, and use Thai Kitchen which only has 2 simple ingredients: watery + coconut. I made this yogurt, and absolutely love it! My favorite non-dairy yogurt so far. I let it incubate for 15 hours, as I like it on the sweeter side.

    Thanks for posting. I made it with one can of Savoy coconut cream instead of coconut milk and just added two of the crushed L.Reuteri tablets, and a spoonful of honey. I didn't heat it or add gelatin. And I didn't have an Instapot or other device so used a heating pad on low heat. Covered the bowl with plastic wrap and let it sit for 36 hours and then put it in the fridge. Turned out great, very thick, tangy and little sweet from the honey.

    I use Ayam coconut cream which is found in the Asian section of supermarkets in Australia. I live in the Geelong region. I never need to add sweetener either. I just use the coconut cream straight out of the can, no refrigerating, warm it to 40-43C, add culture and put into yoghurt maker.

      What's the point ? Could you put the coconut milk or coconut cream and the culture straight into the maker, turn it on?

    • @luvelelife
      @luvelelife  4 года назад +2

      @@ginoasci2876 Hi there, thanks for your question. Yes, in this recipe we do exactly that, we put all of the ingredients in to the container and turn it on. Heating the milk before adding to the yogurt maker container can be helpful for different types of coconut milk, where you need to combine the coconut water and cream together. Either way works fine.

    Czech republic and Slovakia - there is an other option - you can order fresh and freezed coconut flesh alonge with probiotics directly from the company Wild and Coco (but in my opinion its quite costly, although cheaper and healthier than buying canned coconut milk) I'm ordering probiotics from them called "Superhuman" and I use them for soya or oat yogurt.

I guess you could, but the boxed varieties are mixed with water to resemble your typical almond or nut milks, so you won't be getting the delicious fatty creaminess and rich coconut flavor as you would from the tins, which are a more pure form of "coconut cream".

      By the way we use fresh coconut water and mix with the coconut meat that gives all the sugars you need, white sugar is quite toxic and harmful, best use a natural sugar like panela or rapedura which is still rich in molasses and mineral content, white sugar like white salt and white flour are all heavily processed and damage the body overtime.

    I've been reading the Luvele recipes for coconut milk yogurt, and for soy milk yogurt. Suppose one wanted to ferment these together in a 50-50 mix. Any opinion on how that might work out Luvele? Following Davis, I would like to try a probiotic blend of L. Gasseri, B. Coagulans, and possibly L. Reuteri. Any comment on that!? Many thanks.

    Just started my coconut yogurt experiment! I am just using what I already have in my cupboard, I buy my canned coconut from thrive market, it did not thicken in the freezer but I am going to proceed anyway. I added many strains of probiotic from a capsule and 2 tsp of sugar since the milk was more than indicated in the video. I set my temp at 108 F for 24 hours. I shall see what happens. If it doesn't thicken but has a nice sour taste I will just use it in my smoothies and baked goods instead of milk.

I has L. reuteri, L. acidophilus, L. rhamnosus, and Bifidobacterium longum (which I seem to recall reading that if on the SCD program, is a no-no). IF the "bifido" is ok for SCD, should I add some of this product in with the GI ProStart and use them together or not use the Reuteri product at all? If so, 1/8 tsp of each?

    I just took out my glass container from my Yogourmet Yogurt Maker after fermenting for 24 hours. I used the sachet that had the extra probiotics from yogourmet (green box). It looks so watery and the separation of light/yellowy liquid on the bottom was a lot. I gave it a stir and it felt like water. I hope after being refrigerated for many hours this will thicker up but I don't think it will. I used Cha's Organic Coconut milk cans which only contain coconut and water. Am I missing something with this? And yes I put 1 teaspoon of sugar. I checked the temperature of the maker and it was stable at 38 degrees. I don't know what else to do. Anyone?

    • @majorawol
      @majorawol Год назад

      Hi. My experience with many failed batches is that your temperature of 38 is too low. It's good and necessary for some strains such as L-Reuteri and L-Gasseri (low temp and 36h fermentation) but typical yogurt making it's more like 40c to 46c, which my Yogurtmet machine is always set to 115F (46c) and has no way of adjusting it. Typical yogurt making is much shorter incubation... like 4-8hours. All my experiments have been with milk or 10% cream thus far. I'm switching to coconut now.

      Hi there, thanks for your question. When making yogurt with non-dairy plant based milks like coconut milk, you do not need to heat the milk. Heating 'dairy' milk to approx 185 degrees is done to change the proteins in dairy milk, which helps produce a thicker, creamier dairy yogurt.

    • @luvelelife
      @luvelelife  Год назад +4

      The sugar or honey is added for the good bacteria to consume to make the yogurt. Coconut milk does not naturally contain sugars, like dairy milk does with its lactose. So you need to add something for them to consume. But the end of the incubation all of this is gone/consumed anyway, so there is no negative to adding it.

    • @perthplantbased980
      @perthplantbased980 3 года назад

      Yes you do have to add sugar. Lactose is a type of sugar, it is two single sugar molecules stuck together (glucose and galactose). The bacteria in yoghurt cultures have a 'special' ability to break the bond between these two sugar molecules and then consume them just like any other bacteria would. It was stated in the video that any bacteria culture can go into this recipe as the glucose is coming straight from the sugar you put in rather than the natural lactose that is in cow milk (i.e. you do not need a 'special' bacteria that can break down lactose). Hope that makes sense!

    • @luvelelife
      @luvelelife  3 года назад +1

      Thanks for your message. Yes, you are right yogurt bacteria will consume the lactose in milk. However, coconut milk does not contain any lactose, this is why you need to add a little sugar to coconut milk yogurt for them to consume.
