L. Reuteri Superfood Yogurt in a Sous Vide

Using a sous vide is one of the best ways to make this yogurt. You can make big batches and it only takes minutes to make it right in the jar, so no clean up. This is a great device and I think it makes wonderful LR yogurt. You can make different types at the same time be it non-dairy or dairy L reuteri yogurt.
See more info about the equipment needed.
IMPORTANT! When you make your first batch please use Ultra-Pasteurized milk. Most organic milk is ultra-pasteurized. You can also heat the milk to 195ºF / 90ºC and hold it there for 10 minutes if you can't find UHT milk. Then cool it down in the fridge or freezer till it gets back down to 100°F before adding the starter.
This denatures most of the lactoglobulin protein in milk and allows it to join in the mesh of other proteins (instead of remaining inactive) and increases the amount of protein in the milk that will thicken the yogurt. If you use ultra-pasteurized milk then it has already been heated and held at a high temperature so you don't need to heat it. Without this, the yogurt can separate into whey and curds.
The health benefits are many and L. reuteri has been helpful in treating SIBO and SIFO, Candida, Colic in infants, H pylori, and is also known for increasing oxytocin known as the love hormone!
LR Superfood's fermentation process is different from that of conventional yogurts: LR Superfood is fermented for 36 hours at a lower temperature than conventional yogurts and requires the addition of prebiotic fiber to the milk. So it's important to check and see if your yogurt maker is low enough (97-100°F) to make the yogurt.
And there's a bonus, too! Once you've made a batch of LR Superfood, you can use some of it to culture your next batch!
