Tips for Making Yogurt

Tips

 * Commercially available yogurts are usually heavily sweetened. Making your own is a good way to avoid this excess sugar.
 * The longer the mixture incubates, the thicker and more tangy the yogurt will be.
 * Putting the yogurt in the freezer to cool it before to moving it to the refrigerator will result in a smoother consistency. You can also stir or shake in the lumps.
 * Just about all yogurt makers require you to add water to the bottom unit so the heat is easily conveyed to the containers. Follow the instructions provided with your yogurt maker.
 * Using a double boiler makes it easier to control the temperature.
 * Always have a thermometer at hand for anything. You can use it to check the temperature of the water (if used to keep yogurt warm while firming) to help yogurt firm up.
