Recently, no doubt due to supply chain difficulties, my regular brand was absent from the shelf. I decided this would be a great opportunity to try yogurt from a packaged culture. I followed the instructions closely for the first batch, but modified the ingredients slightly based on how I have always done it. I used 1% milk and added 1/4 cup of powdered milk to the one quart batch. The instructions said the first batch would come out thin, but it came out just like normal yogurt! I incubated for 22 hours at 110F because this long time was recommended for the first batch. A few days later I used some of the first batch as a starter to make two more quarts, which is my standard batch size. Same milk with powdered milk, but about two tablespoons of yogurt per quart as starter and this time incubated for eight hours, which is what I typically do. Both batches made very good and nicely tart yogurt! For the last 15 years or so I have used a styrofoam egg incubator to make yogurt. The small heating element and fan can be adjusted to hold a steady 110F and it holds two one quart yogurt containers perfectly. Review: EXCELLENT YOGURT STARTER - I typically use store bought yogurt for my starter but this time I wanted the starter to be mine. I was happy to find a brand that does not put sugar in it! I made my yogurt using raw milk yesterday. I did not follow the directions on the package as I use my instant pot to make it. I let it cook for twelve hours and it sat for about three. It was a little on the watery side, I probably should have done it for a little longer. The taste is on the tangy side and so very delicious. I am happy with this purchase. ## Features - Use with all kinds of yogurt makers and whole milk - Contains live active bacteria like ''Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp.
