I have not but after reading directions for making indian style yogurt I believe you just make plain yogurt and then add the ingredients to make it indian style. If you need a greek type yogurt for it all you do is drain the yogurt in a cheesecloth lined sieve until it is the thickness you want. My book says for mayonnaise thickness drain 10 to 15 minutes, for sour cream thickness 30 minutes, 2 C. yogurt will yield 1 C. drained and for cream cheese thickness, 6-8 hours and 3C. will yield 1 C.. Thickness also depends on the milk you use. Whole milk will yield thicker yogurt than fat free or lowfat milk. I purchased a book called, "Cooking with Yogurt" by Olwen Woodier, more of a pamphlet really, but has great information for making and recipes for using yogurt. I use it in place of buttermilk in biscuits, pancakes, etc. Works great in stroganoff in place of sourcream. Greek yogurt is just plain yogurt that has been drained. You can also use the whey that drains off in biscuits, soups etc.

Also I love this machine because It has a tall lid and I make my yogurt in pint jars. My yogurt is usually set in 2 hours. It is much better than store bought yogurt and I can control the ingredients. I eat a half cup of plain with 1 packet of truvia and a dash of vanilla extract and 1/3 c of my homemade granola for breakfast.

I have but came out with something along the line of Villi - very thick, gooey and kind of stringy. It tasted good but I couldn't get past the texture. I called the manufacturer and they recommended I heat the raw milk to 145 then allow it to cool before adding the culture. I have done it that way now for a few months and it makes wonderful buttermilk.

You could definity make regular yogurt in this if you wanted to. It includes a strainer for the last step of straining out some of the whey. You would just skip this last step for regular yogurt.

No! You can make an almond milk yogurt, but you must use almonds that have been grounded up and soaked. Store bought "almond milk" has other ingredients in it.

I did, but I used dairy yogurt as the starter. (About 1 tbsp per pint jar) I used a carton of west soy organic unsweetened plain. The only ingredients are soybeans and water. I did not scald it, just poured into jars, stirred in yogurt and set for 9 hours. It was super thick and tasted great! I would like it a little tart-er next time, so I will go to 10 or 11 hours.

Yes, I use this yogurt maker to make thick Greek-style coconut milk yogurt all the time. You can find my simple recipe here: http://thenourishinghome.com/2014/03/make-greek-style-yogurt-no-straining-required/ I hope this helps. Blessings, Kelly

I use any live culture plain yogurt from the store, and make a mother culture with it as well so it lasts longer. Eventually you need new starter again as it loses strength after a few generations.

you're in luck. There are instructions. I am a novice too and I had to make it with rice milk. I can't say I did a great job with it but there were instructions or that too.

I tried to make almond milk yogurt with this starter in an Instant Pot with the yogurt making function with no success. I have also unsuccessfully tried cashew and coconut milk. I am actually an testing it right now to make sure it is actually alive. If I find it to be a dud, I will follow up here. I did end up purchasing GI Pro Start (also vegan) that I have found a bit more successful.

You could try Flax milk. That is the closest to real milk I have found.I tried do & almond which did not work with any brand of yogurt starter. If it works please let me know.

I've made one slow cook and the results were so-so. It was a bit dry so it probably needed more liquid. I make yorgurt using coconut milk as the medium, 2 tbsp sugar, 1tsp agar powder, culture and a tsp of ground vanilla. Typically allow it to ferment at least 24 hours, sometime longer.

I am aware of any recipe other than what is on the package. However, I did use substitutes for yogurt, like coconut milk and plain water. I will try using pumpkin, you can't go wrong because the chocolate flavor dominates. The texture may vary but it is still delicious.

I saw your post about the yogourmet yogurt maker. I also want one I can use with the SCD . Have you found a more suitable one yet?

I just received my Yolife yesterday and made my first soy yogurt using the Silk brand of soy milk. It turned out fine! Not as firm as store brands, but not runny either. Next time I'll try adding something like agar or gelatin to firm it up a bit just to see what happens, and then move on to experimenting with coconut and almond milks. I love my Yolife! It's hard to find nondairy yogurt where I live, but now the search is over.
