www.luvele.co.uk. We also have recipe eBooks available for download.
You can email us at [email protected] for more recipe info.
INGREDIENTS:
• 2 litres full cream milk
• 125ml natural yoghurt (Starter)
• 75g full cream milk powder
(optional)
1Heat the milk to just below boiling point 80-85°C | 175-185°F, then allow to cool to 40°C.
Use a sterilised kitchen thermometer to monitor temperature of milk when heating and
cooling.
2
When milk reaches 40°C | 100°F, stir in yoghurt starter and milk powder until combined.
Do not aerate.
3Pour yoghurt mixture into the yoghurt container and press down firmly on the container lid.
Also press the vacuum button shut to create an airtight seal. Place the yoghurt container
into the yoghurt maker base, then add water to base, making sure not to fill above the ‘Tall Line
Indicator’ and then cover with outer yoghurt maker lid.
4Select the desired temperature and time using the digital control panel. You can
experiment with incubation time to get the consistency you desire. However, you should
not have to go over an 8-10 hour incubation time.
5When the yoghurt maker has completed incubation time, remove the outer lid and yoghurt
container. Then remove the container lid and check the texture of the yoghurt. Do not stir
the yoghurt. If set to desired thickness switch yoghurt maker off at power outlet and unplug.
Replace the yoghurt container lid and place into refrigerator for 8 hours.
6
Leave enough of the yoghurt you have made to use as a starter when making your next
yoghurt mix. Consume yoghurt within 4-5 days.
!PLEASE NOTE:
Store bought powder starters can
be used instead of yoghurt
It is said that SCD yoghurt can assist is correcting the balance of bacteria types in the gut.
There has been much written about the benefits of adding SCD yoghurt to your diet.
Introducing SCD yoghurt to your diet can aid in correcting the balance of bacteria types in
the gut by eliminating the food supply of the undesirable types of bacteria and so starves
them out. This process then repopulates the gut with beneficial bacteria which further
displaces the harmful bacteria. SCD yoghurt is also very nutritious and contains proteins,
vitamins, minerals, amino acids, fats, and much more.
MAKING SCD YOGHURT
1
Heat the milk to just below boiling point 80-85°C | 175-185°F, then cool to 40°C. Use a
sterilised kitchen thermometer to monitor temperature.
2
Once cooled to 40°C | 100°F, stir in your yoghurt starter until combined. Use ¼ cup of
yoghurt starter per litre of milk, do not aerate. It is recommended not to use milk powder
when making SCD yoghurt.
3
Pour yoghurt mixture into the yoghurt container and press down firmly on the container
lid, also press the vacuum button shut to create an airtight seal. Place the yoghurt container
into the yoghurt maker base, then add water to base, making sure not to fill above the ‘Tall Line
Indicator’ and then cover with outer yoghurt maker lid.
4
Set the digital timer to incubate for 24 hours and the temperature to 38°C, then press
confirm. Do not move yoghurt maker during this time.
5Unplug the yoghurt maker and remove the container. Place the yoghurt container into the
refrigerator and chill for 8 hours. The SCD yoghurt is ready to consume after
8 hours of refrigeration.
PLEASE NOTE:
If store bought yoghurt is used as a starter, the yoghurt can contain
Lactobacillus Acidophilus, Streptococcus Thermophilus, and Lactobacillus
Bulgaricus. It should not contain gums, sugars, additives, or flavours of any kind.
The yoghurt must contain active live culture.

1Open the cans and spoon the coconut cream directly into your yoghurt making bowl. Note:
Depending on the temperature of your home the coconut cream will vary in consistency.
On a hot day, the coconut cream will be runny while in cool weather you will need to spoon
it out.
2Add the sugar and your preferred starter culture, and gently whisk it in.
3Put the lid on and place into your yoghurt maker. The coconut cream is now ready to
begin fermentation.
4Set the temperature to 38° C. and time to 24 hours.
5After 24 hours the fermentation is complete. Switch the yoghurt maker off and remove the
yoghurt bowl. Straight from the warm maker, the yoghurt will be runny and the coconut
cream will have separated with coconut water at the bottom. This is normal. In the fridge, the
coconut cream will set firm.
6
Place the tub in the fridge for at least 6 hours to chill and set.
7Thoroughly stir the yoghurt to incorporate the cream and coconut water before serving.
For extra thick coconut yoghurt, pour out some of the coconut water before stiring. Don’t
throw it away though - fermented coconut water is perfect added to smoothies or may be
used as a probiotic milk alternative.
Easy Coconut Yoghurt Recipe
INGREDIENTS:
• 4 cans of coconut cream, refer to note!
• 1 teaspoon of sugar
• Yoghurt starter culture
(follow packet instructions) !PLEASE NOTE:
Coconut cream should be
preservative free, additive free
and gluten free. Also the cans
should have BPA free lining.
BIFIDUS/BIFIDUM BACTERIA
The original Specific Carbohydrate Diet (SCD), from the book ‘Breaking the Vicious Cycle’, calls
for a yoghurt starter that does not contain Bifidus/Bifidum bacteria. Bifidobacteria is a beneficial
bacteria, but in some cases it can ‘take over’. Just to be on the safe side, we usually recom-
mend avoiding it in the beginning of your healing journey. You can find more information about
this here: http://www.breakingtheviciouscycle.info/knowledge_base/detail/bifidus/
When it comes to probiotics, as with other supplements, there is variation in individual toler-
ances. One size does not fit all. If your probiotic or yoghurt starter is GAPS compliant, or your
certified GAPS or SCD health practitioner has recommended a particular probiotic brand, we
trust their judgment. At Luvele, we cannot make claims about specific strains or their interaction
with your unique body.
OTHER COCONUT CREAM BRANDS
Feel free to experiment with other additive-free brands of coconut cream to make this recipe.
Cans with a large percentage of ‘coconut pulp’ and a small portion of coconut water make
better yoghurt. .
Recipe Tips
TIPS:
24-hour yoghurt, even when made perfectly, will be thinner and runnier than other
yoghurt you’ve had. This is because it doesn’t have added thickeners and because it
hasn’t been ‘dripped.’ If you want thicker yoghurt, the first option is to drip it.
Dripping is what turns plain yoghurt into ‘Greek yoghurt.’ It’s the process of removing
the whey, which is liquid. Dripped yoghurt is also higher in protein per serving than
regular yoghurt. Dripping yoghurt is easy to do, just strain the yoghurt through a
cheesecloth. The excess whey (liquid) will drain away, leaving you with a thicker
yoghurt.
Another option is to add a thickener like gelatin to the milk before fermenting it. Since
gelatin is beneficial for gut health, adding gelatin to 24-hour yoghurt is a win-win. To
thicken your milk with gelatin, add 1 tablespoon of gelatin per 4 cups of milk before
heating the milk.

Cleaning
& Care Hints & Tips
Cont.
Before disassembling and cleaning, ensure the power is switched off
at the power outlet, the power cord is unplugged from the power outlet
and the appliance is cool.
Remove the yoghurt maker’s outer lid from the top of the housing.
Remove the yoghurt container from inside the housing. Use a slightly damp,
soft cloth to wipe the housing. Dry thoroughly.
Wash the glass container and lid in warm soapy water. Rinse with water
and dry thoroughly with a soft, clean cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners
or solvents as these may damage the appliance. Do not wash any part
of the yoghurt maker in the dishwasher.
Important - After each use, thoroughly dry the ‘heating element’
with paper towel or soft clean cloth.
Hints & Tips
Temperature Settings:
>There are three temperature settings on the Luvele Pure Yoghurt Maker
36°C, 38°C, 40°C. All three temperatures can be used to make yoghurt
successfully. And all three temperatures can be used to make
SCD/GAPS diet yoghurt.
>The reason we design the Pure Yoghurt Maker to have three temperature
settings it to provide more control over the end result of your homemade
yoghurt. Basically, incubating yoghurt at different temperatures can change
the taste and texture of the yoghurt. We recommend to start with the
38°C setting when making your first batch of yoghurt. Once you are
comfortable with the process, you can then start to experiment with
different temperatures.
> Ensure the yoghurt container and other utensils used in the preparation
of the yoghurt are cleaned and rinsed under hot water, then dried with
a clean tea towel prior to use. This will help eliminate interfering
bacteria.
> Ensure the ingredients to be used in the yoghurt mix are fresh.
Using out-of-date products will impede the production of thick
flavoursome yoghurt.
> Follow suggested recipe quantities (see recipe on page 10) and methods
to ensure successful yoghurt production.
> To avoid milk sticking or burning to the base of the saucepan when
heating, use a medium heat and stir continuously with a metal spoon.
Do not heat milk in the microwave.
> After heating the milk, place the saucepan in a shallow, cold water bath
to speed up cooling. Use a sterilised kitchen thermometer to monitor
temperature of the milk when heating and cooling.
> Avoid moving the yoghurt maker during the incubation period.
> Do not use the yoghurt maker near a heat source, outdoors or in sunlight,
as exposure to excessive heat may make the yoghurt separate and
have a curdled appearance.
> Refrigerate yoghurt for 8 hours before using. The texture and flavour
will improve with longer refrigeration.
