I make greek yogurt every week and I can even sell it. After I strain, i don't like how lumpy it is so I will beat it with an egg beater until smooth. My customers' favorite flavor is honey vanilla, for 1 pint I will add 2 Tbsp of honey and 2 tsp of vanilla extract. I don't have a crockpot so I just use a pot, heat milk to 180°F then I'll let it cool to 115°-120°F then in a small bowl I'll add my starter and like 2 cups of the milk, then I whisk. Once combined I will add it to my pot of milk. Then I put it in my oven with the light on, I will leave it over night and in the morning it is ready to strain

I live in Turkey and almost everyone here makes their own yogurt at home. We call the part that remains as a result of separating the excess water, "filtered yogurt". You can also use yogurt without straining, because the greenish water flowing down is very beneficial. If you have to strain it, please do not throw it away. You can add it to smoothies, for example.

Just wanted to add some things I learned after following this recipe for awhile: It seems grass fed/organic milks are often ultra pasteurized, meaning it’s already been heated up to 280 degrees. Which I found out (the hard way) to mean 1. No ricotta cheese from the whey water. 2. You can skip the first step of heating the milk to 180 degrees (I usually just heat it to the 110-115 range and add the starter). And bonus: you can use the whey water as a starter for the next batch, so you don’t have to waste yogurt.

I do not use ultra pasteurized milk so I bring my regular, whole fat milk up to 180 degrees ( I use a thermometer) and stir pretty regularly so the milk solids don’t burn on the bottom. Then I reduce the temp to 110°. I add 2 tablespoons of plain Greek yogurt to the cold milk and put it all in the instant pot for 14 hours. I use 2 tablespoons for 1 gallon of milk.

Here in The Netherlands we can make our own greek yoghurt that is called ''kwark'' . If you have the right bacteria (Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis / cremoris, Leuconostoc ssp) you ferment the milk and the bacteria actually makes the vitamin K2 in high amounts. You dont need fatty milk or grass fed milk for that.

I tried using a Ninja Foodi as a crock, but it didn't hold the heat overnight and the results were poor. I purchased a small Instapot (3 qt but you can only fill it to the 2/3 mark!!!!!!) that has a yogurt button. Push it three times and it heats the milk to just below boiling. Push it twice to "normal" and you can set the fermentation hours you want on a clock. The Instapot will keep the yogurt at 110F for that amount of time then shut off. I used Kirkland Non-Fat Greek Yogurt as a starter, and it came out great (18 hrs of fermentation with the pressure cooker top on and the vent open). A plastic knife stood up in it after 6 hours. The Euro strainer you recommended works great! I let the yogurt drain in it until the consistency was thick but not too thick. Thanks for the great video!

I make sour cream in my instant pot, which has a yogurt setting. I use small 6 oz yogurt jars with screw on plastic lids. I set mine for 24 hours. That's the GAPS protocol recipe. Take 2 pints Organic heavy cream and heat it to just before it boils, do not let it boil. Set the pan in a sink of cold water. Stir yogurt and remove when it's 112* or less. Stir in 1/4 C. yogurt then pour into jars. Add 1 cup water to the instant pot, add the trivet rack, place jars of yogurt, secure the lid and keep the valve open. Select yogurt setting for 24 hours. Turn off the keep warm button. It will automatically come one when you select any setting on the machine and needs to always be turned off when not needed.

I use my InstantPot to make yogurt these days, used to do the crockpot method. I also invested in the strainer a couple of years ago so I could stop wasting all the yogurt I couldn't get off the cheesecloth. And grass fed milk makes the best yogurt ever! I use yogurt in place of sour cream even. Honestly, you don't have to use more than a couple of tablespoons of your yogurt as a starter, using too much can actually inhibit the bacterial growth, which leaves more of your homemade yogurt for you to enjoy. 😊

I recommend an Instant Pot with a yogurt button. If you are using ultra-pasteurized milk you can use the cold start method. Much easier. No need to heat first and then let cool. Plenty of videos on KZfaq on how to do that. You only really need about 2 Tbsp of yogurt with live cultures as a starter. You can freeze plain commercial yogurt for use in later batches. 24 hour fermentation makes GAP yogurt. 24 hour fermentation increases the bacteria level about 10X.

Thank you Autumn once again for this amazing recipe! I will do it as well! It is so hard to find Grass Fed Greek Yogurt so I am so so happy you shared this! May I please know, how many quarts is your crock pot? I want to get one that is as small as possible but still make same amount as you make.. Thank you

I don't know for certain, but it looks to be half the size of my 8 qt pot. So, from my observation, I would guess it's a 4 qt or even might be a 2 qt. 😀 Hope this helps !

recyclable bamboo cloth works awesome but little to no whey water! it comes out somewhere between ice cream and really smooth butter cream frosting

My wife makes it. It's just normal in her culture to make it and it tastes so much better than store bought

So excited to make this and I would LOVE to know when you make the ricotta. How long will the homemade yogurt last? I think freezing it will not taste good once defrosted. Thank you!

The crock pot method is really interesting. I have always brought milk to a boil and turned down to simmer for 10 minutes and cool to lukewarm (around 110 degrees) before adding starter. I only add a few tablespoons starter and it works fine. I let it sit at least 12-15 hours. I have never made Greek yogurt out of it though. Will try that. 😊

This is what I am needing! We have a 17mo old who looooves yogurt and we're wanting to make sure she gets the full fats she needs to thrive and not all that added sugar from store bought yogurt. This looks perfect and like you said, a great money saver! What do you recommend for optimal storage?
