That was ingenious, making it in an incubator. I don't have an incubator, but wonder if I could get the right temps w/ my cookie tin water heater??? I have been having trouble w/ consistant low enough temps w/o being to low. I didn't want to have to go buy another appliance b/c of the extra...

Thank you for posting your method, I tried it tonight and it was the best yogurt I've ever made, or even eaten. It is a little more involved then my usual method, but sooooooooooo worth it. I have to agree w/ you the cooking the milk down gives a very nice flavor.
marenostrum, thanks for the detailed multigenerational personal experience in yogurt making. Did I understand correctly you only "cook" (or incubate) the yogurt for 5-8 hrs and not 12, and going longer then the 5-8 makes a "tarter" (more sour) yogurt?
I had always strained the "yogurt juice"...
