7
(Small plastic containers, recycled baby food jars, small canning jars, etc...)
-
8
In a wide bottomed pot, make a bath for the containers: Heat up about 1 of water in pot to a near boil.
-
9
In another pot or tea kettle, heat up additional water.
-
10
After water is hot, turn off heat and place filled yogurt containers into bath.
-
11
Pour in additional water until water level reaches nearly the top of yogurt containers.
-
12
(Hint: Use a funnel to pour the water into the pot so no water splashes into the yogurt containers.)
-
13
Place a towel over pot, being careful not to let it droop into yogurt containers and let yogurt set in the water bath.
-
14
After the water has cooled completely, heat pot on stove to re-warm water (3-4 min.
-
15
Dont heat too much).
-
16
After the water has cooled completely for the second time ( 4-5 hrs total bathing time) the yogurt should be fairly set.
-
17
Remove from bath, put lids on jars and store in fridge until ready to serve
-
18
If yogurt is sweet, but not set after water has cooled, most likely the water bath was too hot for too long.
-
19
Next time try starting with a bath that isnt so hot, or heat less during the warm-up phase.
