Notes

What Type of Milk to Use

Full fat milk makes creamier, thicker yogurt. Goat's milk is traditionally used for making Greek yogurt and has excellent results. Additionally, people that are sensitive to cow's milk may have an easier time digesting goat's milk.

Creamy Variation

You can substitute a portion of the milk used in the recipe for cream.  Depending on how rich you like it, you could use 1 cup of whipping cream and 3 cups of homogenized.
