ADDITION FOR MERL – YOGURT (Binder Version)Cooling Step (important for texture)After heating milk at 180–185°F (82–85°C) for 20–30 minutes, cool the milk fairly quickly to 110°F / 43°C before adding the starter.Easy method:Place mason jars into a bowl of cool water for several minutes until the temperature drops to 110°F.Cooling quickly helps keep proteins in the correct structure so the yogurt sets thicker.Fermentation Tips• Do not stir yogurt during incubation.• Whole milk produces the best texture.• Keep jars undisturbed during the 8–12 hour culture period.• Refrigerate at least 4 hours before eating for final thickening.• Save 2 tablespoons of finished yogurt as starter for the next batch.• Yogurt cultures usually stay strong for 5–10 generations.
