Using homemade yogurt can be a cost-effective way to start.

Pour 1/2 gallon of regular milk into a glass container.

Microwave the milk for 17 minutes to raise it to 185°F.

Check the temperature; it should be at 184-185°F.

Let the milk cool down to 105-106°F.

Once cooled, whisk in 1/2 cup of Danon whole milk plain yogurt until well mixed.

Place the mixture in the oven overnight using the proof setting at 80-85°F, or leave the oven lights on.

The next morning, check the yogurt; it should be set and ready to eat.

For Greek yogurt, strain the yogurt through cheesecloth in a strainer over a bowl for 4-5 hours, or overnight for lavna.
