In reply to Glenys Prydden. You can use it in place of water in baking recipes, add it to your compost, or use it to soak your grains!

I am really looking forward to trying this recipe. How can I use the liquid that has strained from the yogurt please?
(Just bought some greek yogurt so need to use most of it up before trying making my own)

In reply to Lisa. Oh no!! That's commitment! And yes, timing is something that can be a little tricky!

This was so easy to make, and turned out awesome! I should have planned it out better, because I ended up having to set my alarm for 0100 am to wake up and remove it from the crockpot to wrap it in a blanket, because I started it too late in the day. I set it in my microwave all bundled up, and it was nice and warm still, and thickened when I took it out hours later.
Yogurt has gotten really pricy at my local grocers, so this is gonna be pretty awesome to make here and there, save some money.

I used goat milk that I’d pasteurized and frozen. It was an experiment. The yogurt I used for the culture, Stoneyfield) was the bottom of the container and about to be expired. I left the heat on for an extra hour, as I was distracted. I knew it would be a miracle if this batch turned out. It came out about the thickness of Kiefer. Would it be safe to use as such?

In reply to Elizabeth Catanesi. I have not. I'm not sure of the protein structure of that milk. Are people making yogurt in general with lactose free milk? If they are I think it would totally work but if in generally using lactose free milk in yogurt making doesn't work out, that would apply here too.

Have you ever tried in the crockpot with lactose free whole milk? Should I expect the same results?
