can you make coconut milk yogurt with a yogortherm

Yep. I tried it once using a recipe I had for soy yogurt. The coconut milk I used wasn't smooth so it was like having yogurt with bits of coconut in it but it was definitely yogurt. Hope that helps.

Yes you can if you use the correct cultures. Best to let it make in the Yogotherm 8hrs so you have a good thickness. I love my Yogotherm!

I don't know. I make dairy yoghurt with whole milk. Coconut milk would likely make a very sweet yoghurt as coconut milk is in itself very sweet but whether the starter would work (I use Bulgarian starter which is meant for dairy milk and the one that comes with the Yogotherm) and if the temperatures needed would be the same are questions I can't answer. You might investigate starter cultures before purchasing a yoghurt maker.

Yes I would say your machine is defective. I believe your temp needs to be 110. I had an old machine and it registered only 100 and it didn't work to make yogurt.

you need to heat the milk on stove first. i tried my second batch with plain Fage greek yogurt.I warm the milk as recommended. Turn out very well. i set the temp.to 7 hours. It is very simple to use.Great machine. I would recommended this machine.It is easy to use.

I haven't been able to using coconut milk. It simply separates the water and the yogurt floats on top. Using organic goats milk it is like thick buttermilk or sour cream after you've used a bit and you mix the the separated parts. I followed the booklet to a T and its not thick, but still good.

Yes, definitely. I have made soy yogurt in one. Just put the container in without the shelves and set temperature to 105-110 degrees.

If you can find a recipe for it online, I don't see why not. I use regular milk but I have friends who use it to make vegan yogurt.

I would use honey raw is best but any will work. you do need a sweetener to help the starter grow good bacteria. here is my recipe for coconut yogurt. it is the best! and it firms up when it is refrigerated. I have made many batches! my kids love it. this is a double batch for the half gallon Yogourmet maker tub- I have two and the recipe is for both. so u my have to half it or what ever for however big your yogurt maker is. COCONUT YOGURT 10 cans coconut milk-Trader Joe green cans (1gallon) -OR 1 gallon of homemade coconut milk- Heat to 180 keep stirring so you don't burn it Then add while still hot - c honey -6 packs plain gelatin (KNOX) MIX WELL then Cool to room temp- (68-77) When cooled Add- 1 tsp GIPRO Put in yogurt makers for 24 hrs

It doesn't work when you use soymilk. The yogurt needs the enzymes from cow's milk. I guess that you could try using coconut or goat's milk.

Yes, the milk needs to be heated first to make the yogurt. I believe it needs to be heated to about 185 degrees. Usually there are instructions on the yogurt culture powder bottle that you need to buy.

If you're making it homemade, you can certainly add it to the yogurt after but I'm not sure it would work. here's a link that may help you: http://www.culturesforhealth.com/make-coconut-milk-yogurt-recipe.

I've not made almond milk yogurt myself, but a quick Net search convinces me that almond milk yogurt is certainly possible in the Dash unit since the incubation temperature in the recipes I found was in the 100-110 degree range, which is the temp maintained by the machine. As to how long, the recipes I found all call for homemade almond milk, which adds an extra step; but other than that, the times for incubation and refrigeration were about the same as for dairy yogurt. You will also have to add thickening agents because of the absence of the dairy proteins that coagulate to thicken dairy yogurt. Hope that helps. Best wishes, Bill

This is great. I use Elaine G's recipe too so this info helps. I wanted to know if I could use 2% lactose-free milk since I'm short on regular. I'm also going to add 5% cream- which I didn't realize had other ingredients in it- like "modified milk ingredients. " If you can make yogurt with soy milk- [which I would never use], I don't see why this wouldn't work. I'll try and see. I have also found keeping the temp. at the simmer point for a minute before cooling and the culturing temp. a little cooler than suggested makes a thicker, firmer result.

I know your question was from several months ago, but here is a great recipe for raw milk yogurt, which you can use with this yogurt maker. You do have to heat the milk slightly, but not enough to kill all the "good stuff." http://nourishedkitchen.com/raw-milk-yogurt/

I have never made yogurt, so I don't know. It works very well however for kefir.

I've successfully made yogurt with coconut milk in this yogurt maker. It took several tries because coconut milk doesn't thicken like cow's milk, so it was turning out watery. My husband found a recipe online that uses gelatin(4 tsp per batch) to thicken, and it turns out really well. It tastes so good that I have a hard time keeping up with the demand in my household :) Good luck!

This appliance does not heat the milk initially. You must do that separately first. It is meant to hold the yogurt cultures at the ideal warm temperature for proper fermentation and then cool them.
