Method
Yogurt Preparation
Cool the Milk
Remove the saucepan from heat and let the milk cool down to about 110°F (43°C). You can use a thermometer to check the temperature.
Incubate the Yogurt
Transfer the mixture to a clean container, cover it, and place it in a warm environment for 6 to 12 hours. This can be done using a yogurt maker, an oven with the light on, or an insulated cooler.
Check for Thickness
After the incubation period, check the yogurt for thickness. If it has reached your desired consistency, you can proceed to the next step.
Refrigerate
Once the yogurt is thick, transfer it to the refrigerator to chill for at least 2 hours before serving. This will help it set further.
