Kefir Yogurt Made Simple, L. reuteri and more...

[TheBzybees]

Ok maybe final comment lol. I made this Lifeway kefir and it is perfect. I used strawberry and there may be just a hint of that taste. I made mine in instant pot with sous vide setting so I can set time & temperature. Used metal rack in bottom of the pan (no water) set 3 quart jars filled with mixture on the rack set for 36hrs @ 100°. My recipe is not quite the same as yours but it worked: 1 TBS inulin; 1/4 cup Lifeway kefir; 2 cups each half & half and organic whole milk > BOTH ULTRA PASTEURIZED. I do not heat the milk. Just pour straight into quart jars & mix well. Put lids on lightly. Set the jars in instant pot & set the hours & time. I do put cover back on instant pot just don’t seal it. Works great. Thanks for this easy method. It only will make 3 quarts at a time but that is plenty for my household.

I make my own kefir and I buy them to start from Cultured Food Life. I've made kefir cheese, but never kefir yogurt. I want to try this too with my homemade kefir.

[PatriciaZelm]

This is all new to me. Do you use a yogurt maker or how do you make the yogurt? I know you said it takes 36 hours. I really like your style of cooking because I love to cook, but sometimes don't do so well on doing by the book.🤷‍♀️

Thank you doctor for introducing Lifeway plain kefir. (6:45 Lifeway Kefir added).

[gladysma]

What kind of kefir do you use, containing L. Reuteri, please?

NB: Quart Jar is used in the demo, so it can contain: 2 cups of half half plus some whole milk.

Preparation:1. Mix prebiotics 2/3 inulin, 1/3 acacia
Senitize all the jars and mixer,
1. 2:03 Warm up some milk to 100F, pour some into each jar,
2. Put a heapful tablespoon (or 2 tablespoons) of mixed prebiotics to each jar and mix well,
3. Pour 2 cups of Half Half (first senitizef) to each jar,
4. Add two full tablespoons of kefir and top up with whole milk, mix well,
5. Put the lid on loosely without screw,
6. Put to incubator set to 100F for 36 hours.

I make kefir so I tried this a few weeks ago in my sous vide, using Now Inulin. It didn't set and I'm wondering why. The L.Reuteri worked though.

Are we able to train kefir grain to accept l reuteri strains by co fermenting them

[davetoms]

Do you have to use milk? Can you just use half & half?

[TheBzybees]

Wonder if you could come up with a water kefir method similar to this so that grains do not need to be maintained.

[TheBzybees]

I use ultra pasteurized milk instead of heating milk when making my kefir. I could only get the peach Lifeway yogurt. Could it work.

How much of the prebiotic fiber do you use per quart? I am using the Bio Gaia tablets. I am starting with 1 quart to make sure I know what I am doing. Thanks

[Aarondanielle]

How would you make this if you wanted to use the yogurt from a previous batch?

[susiet]

Would you ever use raw milk? I make kefir every 3 days using it.

[KarennaC]

can i ask you what sous vide brand you are using.... i want to buy one that fits 6 quart jars like yours does, thank you

[Adderiandei]

Can you list the bacterias you got in this super yoghurt? I live in norway and most common seems to be L thermophila and S. bulgaricus. Can i combine them with reuteri?

[SaraPurvey]

Why use the kefir instead of all the other probiotic yogurts Dr. Davis talks about?

[dizziechef]

Why do you have to heat the milk at first ? Just keep the milk as purchased. I have my homemade fermented milk yogurt to use.

[JSRD]

In the Doctor’s Super Gut book, he ferments the commercial KEFIR @ 106 degrees for 36 hours, NOT 100 degrees. Why 100 degrees?

[CoastalGirl]

Where’s the starter? Guess I missed it….

[mrentertainer]

The cameraman needs training as he doesn't show the yoghurt pots much, lol
