FAQ:
Q: Can I use quick oats?
A: Rolled or steel-cut oats are best. Quick oats tend to become too mushy and can affect fermentation.
Q: Do I have to use a probiotic capsule?
A: No, but it helps boost the culture and makes a stronger, tangier yogurt. Fermentation will still occur without it—just slower and milder.
Q: Why does my yogurt separate?
A: Natural separation is normal in homemade oat yogurt. Stir before using, or strain for a thicker consistency.
Q: Is homemade oat yogurt good for digestion?
A: Yes! Fermentation introduces good bacteria that support gut health, reduce bloating, and improve digestion.
