thread_title:  English language 

message: "Kaymak is also the thick foam at the top of a well-prepared Turkish coffee in Bulgarian, Serbian, Bosniak and Turkish."
The above statement is completely wrong. The foam on coffee is "köpük", not "kaymak". I took out the sentence.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Xommana (talk • contribs) 14:07, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: The above statement is correct with regards to Bulgarian, but it refers to the curdling on top of hot milk primarily, I think. But also the foam on top of any coffee, not just turkish. Or even possibly other drinks, for example ayryan. 82.137.72.35 (talk) 16:53, 11 October 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Wrong Information 

message: The article was claiming that kaymak is originally Serbian, which is not very plausible since the word and the verb exists in almost all of the Turkic languages (from Central Asia to Balkans.). When I say exists I don't mean holistically but existing as a fully compositional form. Probably it's in proto central asian language, since Mongolian has the word too, although it's not Turkic. I tried to elaborate on the etymology of the word.--Aeural (talk) 04:09, 18 February 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Wikipedia is no place for nationalist flag-waving. As the user Aeural already points out, it is extremely improbably for kaymak to originate from any one modern country, be it Turkey, Serbia, or Bosnia-Herzegovina, otherwise you'd be hard-pressed to explain how it became incorporated into the traditional cuisines of rural farmers and herders as far away as Mongolia and Xinjiang. The origin of kaymak is lost in prehistory, and no one nation or country can claim it as their invention, though many ethnic groups and countries can claim it as one of their traditional foods. --222.80.175.11 (talk) 03:10, 20 September 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Origin of Kaymak 

message: I live in Montenegro.
I only buy Kaymak in stores and supermarkets, usually it's there. Pretty good.
Here's the link to the Serbian manufacturer of the Kaymak that I'm enjoying right now (the URL is printed on the packaging):
www.mlekarasabac.com (unfortunately, the site is in serbian, and made with Adobe Flash).
I think that information has been deprecated since 2000..

thread_title:  Can be bought only in open markets - WTF? 

message: The article claims that kaymak can be made from water buffalo milk, but considering that the water buffalo is not typical to the regions were kaymak is traditionally produced and consumed, this must be an error. Meanwhile, yaks are plentiful in Central Asia, and many Central Asian cultures use yak milk in the production of many traditional dairy products. --222.80.175.11 (talk) 03:10, 20 September 2014 (UTC)

Do you have sources for this? 78.42.207.32 (talk) 22:50, 5 May 2016 (UTC)
