Friends who need a real sourdough (Bulgarian stick - Lactobacterium bulgaricum) for making yogurt. I can bring it from Bulgaria. The only condition is pickup from Moscow. Preliminary applications to my email: As for the cost and quantity, I will announce it a little later. I do not have regular access to the Internet, so while I threw information without details. I can only say that the jar costs 18 Euros. This is 50 liters (not less). And considering that you can re-ferment without losing the quality of the product 2-5 times (depending on milk) - it turns out not expensive. I do not require any prepayment (this is not for the sake of business) you can always refuse to receive it.
There is also a sourdough for making real feta cheese. I always use it in Moscow. The cheese turns out just super. A jar of 30 ml costs about 10 Euro (at last year's prices, I have not yet recognized). For the production of feta cheese from 1 liter of milk, 2-4 drops of sourdough are needed (depending on the quality of the milk). I can't bring much. If anyone needs it, write to the mail.
P.S. I forgot to say that all the leavens are official (they are not made by aunts in padwala) and are also used for industrial purposes. production. In particular, Valio buys yoghurt starter. It is produced under the supervision of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences. So no one will poison

So, as promised by the current information:
1) Lactobacterium bulgaricum (this is the real yoghurt bacteria!). Packing 45 gr. for preparation of 100 liters of yoghurt - 25 Euro. If you over-ferment (you can 3-4 times until you turn into yogurt), then it will be enough for a very long time, but 100 liters is not enough. Don't forget that Boglaria is the birthplace of yogurt!
2) Ferment for making feta cheese 50 ml. To prepare feta cheese from 1 liter of milk, 3-5 drops of sourdough are needed (depending on the quality of the milk). The sourdough costs 16 Euro. I highly recommend to lovers of feta cheese! I constantly use this leaven.
Everyone who has made pre-orders until now - 100% will receive starter cultures. Write to the mail or you can here. I will answer all questions no earlier than August 25.

Starter cultures in Moscow. All answered by mail. I will shoot several films on the preparation of feta cheese, cheese and yogurt. Be aware that real yoghurt contains Bulgarian sour sticks! This bacterium is very vulnerable to the action of other bacteria that ferment milk into curdled milk. It is for this reason that Mechnikov, after numerous unsuccessful attempts to propagate Lactobacterium bulgaricum outside Bulgaria, invented an alternative drink "Mechnikov's Yogurt" (yogurt with the addition of a Bulgarian stick). All of Europe buys Lactobacterium bulgaricum from Bulgaria, since it does not breed anywhere else. All other yoghurt cultures based on lactobacilli are a compromise to reduce the cost of yoghurt production!

I flew to Sofia and brought new starter cultures for making Bulgarian yogurt (Lactobacterium bulgaricum). Bags for making 100 liters of yoghurt. This leaven from El Bi Bulgaricum is therefore more expensive than the previous ones. The cost of one packet is 45 Euro. This is a very well-known company since the times of the USSR and is still state-owned. They develop starter cultures for many companies, including Meiji in Japan and Valio in Finland. There was also a couple of jars of the previous starter culture.

* - This is a professional concentrated starter culture in granules (powder) for preparing liquid starter culture for yogurt. From one bag
you can prepare 5 or 100 liters of starter culture. At least 10 liters of yoghurt are prepared from each liter of leaven. That is, from one packet of such a concentrate, you can make at least 1,000 liters of yogurt. In practice (in production - up to 50,000 liters). There is no need to cook 100 liters of starter at once. Prepare 1 liter and use it for a week, then repeat the process. The starter culture should be stored in a freezer at -18 .. -20 degrees. Withstands and storage in the refrigerator. Used for the production of yoghurt, for example by Valio.
