It's great to culture your own stuff, and phenomenally easy once you get into the swing, plus you save a LOT of plastic use. Yeah I imagine the silver would do some damage to the biome (not sure that's the right word here) but it would still be better than store bought milk (also usually in plastic) and only necessary for milk you need to be still fresh a week from now. The rest you suck down unadulterated and raw, because it sure tastes good. Idk, I'm just trying to recover some of the old ways. @ppmsilver, would love to hear what you think!

Do you just buy the cultures and put them in milk and let it set a while? We'll be looking into it more, but I'm super glad you've mentioned it!!!! Now I have a cheese person :D Posted using [Partiko Android](https://partiko.app/referral/nateonsteemit)

It's really easy after the first couple tries. I suggest starting small, but that's just me. You strike me as a person who likes to start big! You need two or three tablespoons of good yogurt to start. Put that in the bottom of a one quart mason jar. Scald a little less than one quart of milk and let that cool to body temp, or between 90 and 100 degrees. Pour the cooled (but still warm) milk into the mason jar with the yogurt and mix it together. Cover the jar (I use wax paper) and put it in a warm place. I just put it in one of my upper cabinets that has a counter light underneath, right on top of the light. In cold weather I also wrap the jar with a towel. I hope I can find a picture of this and manage to put it here. leave it there for 12 to 24 hours, depending on taste. It gets thicker and tangier the longer you leave it, but too long and it turns kind of into cheese. It's still good though.

 So the light is on under that cabinet, and the jar is directly over the light bub. Shut the door and forget about it for 24 hours. Let me know how it turns out. Might be a good way to keep some of the milk you have salvaged which may be contaminated after all the work you are doing to save it so scalding it (pasteurizing) would help redeem it. Whatever you do, don't buy a yogurt maker. They are a complete waste of money.

Sorry for the slow reply. Just discovered the mention after a crazy busy week directing the state scholastic chess championship, making my wife Leslie's birthday present and now preparing to leave for setting up my sales table at a market in town. Yes as @nateonsteemit alluded, silver will kill the bacteria and other microbes it comes in contact with. If there are curds which colloidal silver does not penetrate, the cultures may survive in those. Instead of using CS, you can drop a silver coin or other high percentage silver item in the jar for preservation, as has been done for over 2000 years. This would probably provide less exposure of the cultures to silver so more would survive. Most times in life, the answer is somewhere in the middle. You could use fresh raw milk without any silver. Then add silver for preservation when you get more fresh. Then use both to maintain the full benefit of raw, but not have as much go bad. Hope that helps.
