Homemade Yogurt
Yogurt is one of the easiest dairy ferments that you can make! Learn how to make yogurt in a dehydrator, a super simple way to go about it.
Equipment
Ingredients
1/2 gallon milk
2 Tablespoons organic, plain, whole milk yogurt
Instructions
Heat 1/2 gallon of organic milk in a pot over medium heat until it gets to 180°F. (Right when it starts to bubble up a little, not boil.)
Then take it off the heat to cool down to 110°F. (Do not let it go below 105.)
In the meantime, preheat 2 quart size jars with their lids in the dehydrator at 110°.
When the milk reaches temperature, add 1 Tbsp of organic plain, whole milk yogurt per quart of milk.
Whisk it in well to distribute all of the beneficial bacteria throughout the milk.
Take your preheated jars out and fill them up with the yogurt infused milk. (A canning funnel helps.)
Fill up both quart jars and put the lids on.
Put them in the preheated dehydrator. (You could probably fit 6 or even 8 quarts at a time if you wanted.)
Keep at 105°-110°F for 8-12 hours. Do not disturb while the milk is culturing.
Notes
You can help cool the milk to 110°F more quickly by stirring it with a clean wooden spoon or placing the pot in a sink filled with cold water so that the water goes halfway up the outside of the pot.
