• Briefly heat up the milk to 90^ and then allow it to cool to approx. 40^ .
  U. H. T. milk does not need to be heated to a high temperature.
• Divide the milk equally into the glass jars and mix the contents gently but thoroughly.
• With warm milk, it will take 5 to 6 hours to make yoghurt.
• If cold milk is used, it will take 9 to 10 hours to make yoghurt.
