If I’m making other cultured foods (yogurt, sourdough, kombucha, etc.), how far apart do I need to keep the buttermilk culture?
A. When items are being actively cultured (and don’t have lids), we suggest keeping a distance of at least several feet (and preferably more) between items. When your cultured items are being stored in the refrigerator with tight fitting lids, there is no need to keep distance between them. Q. Can I use low fat milk to make buttermilk? A. Yes, but the buttermilk will have a thinner consistency than buttermilk made with whole milk. Q. Can I use raw milk to make buttermilk? A. Yes! For customers wishing to make raw milk buttermilk, this is perhaps one of the greatest benefits to our room-temperature (counter-top) buttermilk starter culture. However, for the buttermilk starter to perpetuate beyond the first generation, you will need to take extra steps to ensure a pure starter is maintained. The process is easy and full instructions can be found here and will be shipped with your order (or click here).
