For a richer yogurt, use non-homogenized milk. Ensure your yogurt starter contains live and active cultures for successful fermentation. If your oven doesn't have a low enough setting, you can use the 'proof' setting or wrap the jars in towels for insulation. Don't disturb the jars during incubation for best results.

Jun 28, 2025Great recipe! I added a tablespoon of honey to each jar before incubating for a slightly sweeter yogurt.

Jun 19, 2025My oven doesn't go that low, so I used a cooler with warm water instead. It took a little longer, but still worked great!
