Note

For best results, let the filled jars sit at room temperature for 4-8 hours to ferment before refrigerating.

Ensure the milk cools to a warm temperature (around 110°F/43°C) before adding the yogurt starter; if it's too hot, it will kill the beneficial cultures.

Use plain, unflavored yogurt with live active cultures as the starter for the best flavor and texture.

Store finished yogurt in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
