ABSTRACT.

Yoghurt was prepared from soymilk equivalent made from malted and unmalted soybeans. Soybeans were processed and mixed with water in ratio of 1:5. One kilogram (1kg) of soybean produced soymilk equivalent of 5 litres (5L). The soymilk samples were exposed to ambient temperature (27°C). Titrable acidity, pH, specific gravity and total solids were monitored on hourly basis for 8 hours. Titrable acidity increased with an increase in storage period while pH tended towards acidity. The soymilk from unmalted soybean separated at about 5th hour from milk production while soymilk from malted soybean curdled at about 7th hour from the time of milk production. The same parameters were also monitored on daily basis for 4 days. The malted soya rnilk had lower microbial load than the unmalted sample. The Soya milk equivalent obtained was fermented to yoghurt at 37°C for 12-16 hours using Lactobacillus bulgaricus and Streptococcus tlierrnopliilus as starter culture in ratio of 1:1. The yoghurt produced was compared with conventional yogurt using sensory evaluation. Yogurt from malted and unmalted soybean compared favourably with reference yoghurt (from cow milk) in terms of colour, flavour and consistency. Yoghurt from cow milk was more sour (P ~ 0.05) than Soya milk yoghurt.
