pull down to refresh

Funnily enough, the consistency always gets better when I use pasteurized milk instead of fresh milk. The fresh milk always leaves the yoghurt a little watery. But the result really varies from milk to milk and I haven't yet found out what exactly makes the difference.
Fresh unpasteurised may have some natural bacteria present that might change the culture of the yoghurt?

Exactly. I could try boiling the fresh milk and then see how the consistency behaves.

boiling raw milk negates all the benefits of using it :)

agree :)

You can heat milk to 63C (145F) for 30 minutes which effectively pasteurises it and apparently does minimal damage to the milk.
