I would use my crockpot ~ I would put my prepped quart jar of milk next to the crockpot and then drape the whole thing with a kitchen towel. (I'd put a few cups of hot water inside the crock, set it on low, cover it with the lid, set the prepped jar next to it, then drape/tuck the towel, then wait for it to do its thing) It seemed to give the yogurt just the right amount of heat to allow it to culture. It got too hot if I put the jar inside the crock. <br /><br />I did come across a vintage 1970's yogurt maker (a Salton Cosmopolitian) at Goodwill a few months ago and had to buy it. I was thinking of trying my hand at yogurt making again. It's just been sitting on my pantry shelf ever since ~ thanks for reminding me that I must make a batch and post it on the blog. :)<br /><br />You're so right, homemade yogurt is wonderful. I've gotta admit, I've become addicted to fat free Fage Greek yogurt since it's so thick, SUPER high in protein, it's a good stand-in for sour cream & I can thin it down if I want a more traditional yogurt consistency. (and it's sold for a good price at Sam's Club) But, homemade is so good, too. Time to dust my yogurt maker off and get to yogurt making! :) Thanks for the nudge!Vicki Ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02973516576477981831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6771618699849194713.post-62186835063718794772013-04-24T17:14:03.869-04:002013-04-24T17:14:03.869-04:00I see that you are using purchased yogurt. Why no...I see that you are using purchased yogurt. Why not make your own? I do! It's cheaper, tastes better, and is easily made. I've made mine with a heating pad, but this next batch I'm going to make after dinner, I'll put in the crockpot just to see how that goes. <br /><br />Try making it! Yummy!Terehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07554055655100245856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6771618699849194713.post-53983479111211314772012-12-22T23:18:10.528-05:002012-12-22T23:18:10.528-05:00So glad that you liked it.
