With Kalys home made yogurt starters :

You get the choice of ingredients and process to make your yogurt : become more involved in your food choices by taking over the production steps. No need to purchase and store any fresh yogurts in advance. You can decide any time to open a sachet from the cupboard or refrigerator door and start a new batch of your favourite yogurt recipe.

Select your ingredients : chose the milk or protein source (dairy, animal or plant, full fat or creamed, organic or conventional, enriched in fibre or protein... etc.), decide how much sugar to use and sweeten with your choice of ingredients, add cream for a Bulgarian or Greek type, control texture (firmness) and acidity yourself : they depend on time spent in the maker but also in the fridge. With a little practice why not flavour each pot in the yogurt maker with a different taste ? Chose new flavours for each batch but also for each pot !

Save money : reduce the cost of fancy yogurts by making them at home. Use more milk and lower the cost per yogurt of each dose. One might also from time to time but not systematically save a yogurt and reseed a new batch with it. Too many reuses will diminish the effectiveness and might also change the flavour.

Save the planet : less plastic pots and more reuse of pots is beneficial to the environment. The carbon impact of your yogurts will be more favourable because less purchases means less cooling of warehouses and lorries. Use locally sourced ingredients to prepare great home made recipes.

Do it yourself : no limit to your cooking fantasy : many books will guide you through fermented dairy products. With Kalys advice you can include many new flavours, textures and use healthier ingredients.

Stay in shape : yogurt is a tremendous source of calcium and vitamines. Low in fat, it is a product recommended by food authorities worldwide. Kalys yogurt starters offer significant numbers of healthy live fresh microorganisms for your intestinal equilibrium and comfort. Yogurt microorganisms reduce lactose levels and make yogurt more tolerable than milk. Consume home made yogourts within three days of making for an optimal effect.

Textured yogurt protein can replace some or all fat in many recipes : the end result is a lower caloric load. Dips, ice-creams, sauces, sweet pastries... can all benefit from this replacement. However heating the ingredients above 60°C will destroy the beneficial microorganisms.
