This yogurt starter is different from the other little 5g packets.... This yogurt is less tart and much thicker. Instead of using a 5g packet, I use about three spoons of this starter and mix it to a liter of milk.

I have been using other commercial starters (Cuisipro, Yogourmet) for years but decided to give this a try. I wasn't about to spend 5 bucks a batch or invest in the Easiyo maker so I used my Danvier electric maker and traditional methods; 1 qt 2% milk, heated to 180 and cooled to about 105, added 1/2 pkg easiyo and gave it about 6 hrs. I got thicker and less tart yogurt than I ever got with any other starter. Buying more today.

I thought this was just starter culture, but it has powdered milk and you just mix it with water. It's made for a specific type of yougurt machine, but it will work in a conventional type as well. It's good thick yougurt, but it only makes one batch.
