    BTW… my bad if I haven't mentioned before. I said I use Fairlife and then said don't use lactose free, but Fairlife is lactose free. 🙂 I have tried a few more milks and none work as well.

    My sister and I have tried this recipe twice, using Oui as a starter, and it always comes out loose and with A TON of whey. After straining that away we're left with 2 1/2 jars of semi-thick yogurt. HELP, what could we be doing wrong?! Lol 🤣

    Thanks for taking the time to make this video. We were just considering using our oui jars to store homemade yogurt, and were so happy to find this! Would’ve never thought to set the filled jars straight in the instapot, which is also pretty new to us. Figured we’d pour the yogurt into the jars after* the yogurt was done but this is much more time efficient. I didn’t know you could use jars and those lids in the pot! Your friends and family are very lucky and we benefit from the tutoring, at our own risk. Very useful; can’t wait to try your methods and appreciate you talking us through… We enjoy oui yogurts but want to try making our own… fun to be had. Thanks!

    EQUIPMENT

    Instant Pot

    12 Yogurt Jars

    Aluminum Foil

    Kitchen Thermometer

    Whisk

    Bowl with pouring spout (helpful, but not nec)

    INGREDIENTS

    1/2 Gallon of Ultra Pasteurized Milk

    2/3 – 1 Cup of Sugar

    1 Container of Oui Yogurt (warmed to room temperature)

    2 Tea Spoons of Vanilla Extract

    METHOD

    Set the Instant Pot on Ultra Mode, Custom Temp 185 degrees

    add the milk and set timer for 30 minutes

    cook with the lid off

    After 30 minutes, skim off any skin on top and whisk in the sugar

    Remove the inner pot and let cool for 20 minutes, then use the Kitchen Thermometer to check it.

    When the milk is 110-115 degrees, add the Yogurt and Vanilla Extract and Whisk thoroughly.

    Wait 10 Minutes.

    Pour into Jars (it would be easier to do this using a Bowl that has a spout, and if you use one, you could also have someone else wash the Inner Pot at the same time, for the next step)

    Cover the jars with Aluminum Foil

    Put the jars into the Instant Pot (the washed Inner Pot)

    Put on the lid.

    Got to Yogurt Mode (medium temp) and set the timer for 11 hours.

    After the time is up, refrigerate before eating.
