On the West Coast the IP to turns yogurt into milk.  It's the counter-culture.

People put a lot less effort into picking apart evidence that confirms what they already believe.

The money is in the division. Always has been, always will be. Divide and rule, the politician cries; unite and lead, is the watchword of the wise.

CA: I would try again with store bought yogurt.  Also, I found that it's harder to make a full gallon at once.

I only make a quart at a time because that is the size of my storage container.

I have never not had my yogurt turn into yogurt, I have used skim and 1%, store bought starter, starter from another batch and whey as well. A gallon or a half gallon.
Wonder what happened,
As for slow cooking, I have never made anything in the slow cooker that didn't turn into a pile of mush. So would never try it. I got it for the speed and the yogurt.

The only time I had a yogurt fail was when I tried to make an entire gallon.  I also can't eat that much before it goes bad.

OK, I need to hardboil a dozen eggs today for deviled eggs. Recipes seem all over the map. What's the best technique?

Put the basket thingie in the pot.  Add a cup of water, pile the eggs on top of the thingie, and close it up.  Use the manual feature to punch in 5 minutes of high pressure cooking time.  10 minutes later, release pressure and cool off the perfectly hard-boiled eggs.

I make the gallon, but then I strain it overnight. It comes to not that much, I have not had it go bad on me yet.

Same here.  If I'm going to fuss with yogurt, I want to make enough of it so I don't have to fuss with the process again for a while.

Eff it. I'm making up my own recipe. If they all explode in there, it will be egg soup. :roll:

merigayle

Report back! I have seen it done both ways and both ways claim success. I did it my way the first time and it worked so I do not mess with it.

High pressure works quicker.

Cooked a half dozen medium large russet potatoes last night.  Cup of water, salt,  manual set to high for 20 minutes, release pressure, perfect!

a half gallon takes the same amount of time except the boil and cool down, I feel the same way why you do, radial.
