Why Is My Homemade Yogurt Stringy. Then put into containers and refrigerated. There are three main reasons you can get a yoghurt that is of a stringy almost slimy consistency.
To thicken just add 1 cup of pwoderd milk to your food processor or spice grinder that will give you a very fine powder. You could try straining it but the sliminess probably will still remain. Keep the heating pad on either the high setting or the settting just below for 7 to 8 hours.
This is why he always heats the milk before yogurting it.
If you wish you could try adding some milk powder to thicken it to try and lessen the sliminess. I use a Euro Cuisine yogurt maker. Best to keep the yogurt your pitching at room temputure. This is why he always heats the milk before yogurting it.
