How do you make yoghurt. To make your own yogurt at home all you need is milk and some store bought yogurt. Make sure the yogurt contains live active cultures which are what turns the milk into more yogurt. First pour 8 cups 2 liters of milk into a dutch oven.
Then heat the milk over medium high heat stirring it continuously so it doesn t scorch. Once the milk reaches 110 degrees f remove the saucepan from the pan of cold water add 1 tablespoon plain cultured yogurt and stir to combine thoroughly. Drain the mason jar.
Pour in the heated. Cover the dutch oven and place the whole pot in a turned off oven turn on the oven light or wrap the pot in towels to keep the milk warm as it sets ideally around 110 f though some variance is fine. You can also make the yogurt in a dehydrator left at 110 f or using a yogurt maker.
Wait for the yogurt to set. Pour heated milk into clean canning jars and cool either by sitting on the counter or in a cool water bath until the temperature drops to 115 f. Use a clean whisk to mix the yogurt starter into the cooled milk.
Place the jars into the oven with the light on for 12 24 hours. The light should provide a consistent heat of about 110 f.
