Have used it well over 7 years and it still works. I simply take 2 spoons of the yogurt and stir it into the milk, cover and let sit on the counter. Next day I have fresh yogurt. We live in Canada too and I would love to give you of my yogurt as it is so much more simple to make. (we make lactose free yogurt with it but you may use regular milk)Priscillanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5659212291862779087.post-80674047330578636822012-03-02T09:01:29.378-07:002012-03-02T09:01:29.378-07:00Well, last night I made yogurt using my slow cooke...Well, last night I made yogurt using my slow cooker. Unfortunately, on warm the temperature still runs at 150*. That temperature successfully killed my yogurt culture. Oh well. I'm going to use the same milk and try again but using my thermos. Thank-you for the idea, Carolyn. I'm sure it works great if your slow cooker's warm stays cooler than mine.Anitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11835121374274839185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5659212291862779087.post-82224290227086472312012-03-01T21:49:18.977-07:002012-03-01T21:49:18.977-07:00I love learning different ways to do things.

I'm heating milk right now for yogurt...I wonder if I have jars that will fit in my slow cooker.Anitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11835121374274839185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5659212291862779087.post-77672474566727983662012-03-01T20:46:23.464-07:002012-03-01T20:46:23.464-07:00Great!

I use a ratio of 2 c powdered milk, 2 c room temp water, 2 c quite warm water and 2 heaping Tbs yogurt (I use Greek as it is thicker and really yummy). Whisk together. I double this, put it in 3 quart jars and put the quart jars in a slow cooker filled with warm water. Leave slow cooker on keep warm overnight. Easy. Then you can use the last of this batch of yogurt to start your next batch. Sometimes I add real vanilla extract to each jar for a different flavor.Carolynnoreply@blogger.com
