Hi,
Recenlty, I have been taking Floraster (saccharomyces boulardii) probiotics, and it really, really helped with my digestive system issues. It is the best probiotics that I have tried so far. It is, however, very expensive, ~$0.75/Capsule. So I was wondering if there is a way to grow it at home using cider or any other liquid medium. My questions are:
1- I've read somewhere that it is possible to brew cider with it instead of champaign yeast, but does the brewed cider has a large number of live CFU?
2- Can I use some of the brewed cider as starter to brew a new batch, or do I need to make a new starter from another capsule.
3- If not, is there any other way to culture it in a sustainable way without producing alchohol
Thanks you very much !
