• Pour 1 cup of milk into your clean, sterilized instant pot.
• Add 2 tablespoons of yogurt and whisk to combine
• Add remaining milk and stir
• Place the lid on the instant pot (you can use a glass or metal lid if you like) and press the yogurt button. It should read "normal". Set for 8 hours.
• After the 8 hours are complete, remove the inner pot, cover and place in the refrigerator overnight to set.
• After the yogurt is set you can transfer to airtight containers for storage.

To thicken your yogurt

• If you want your yogurt thicker, you can strain it after it has been chilled.
• Line a sieve with coffee filters and place over a large bowl.
• Pour the yogurt into the lined strainer.
• Allow to strain for a few hours, or until the yogurt is your desired consistency.
• Transfer strained yogurt to airtight containers for storage.
