The pilot light keeps the oven about the right temp. 6 cups warm water 3 cups powdered milk 2 cups real milk or 1 cup cream 1/4 cup yogurt -- don't use too much or you'll get sour yogurt Mix first three ingredients in a large non-metallic bowl. In a cup, mix the yogurt with a cup of the milk mixture, then stir well into the bowl . Set the bowl in the oven until it slops around like yogurt, about 8 hours, and then refrigerate. I usually put some of the yogurt in a glass in the oven so it's easier to check for doneness. This comes out fairly sweet, in comparison with store-bought. It will be more sour/tart if you let it incubate longer or use more starter. Also, you may need to prop your oven open 1/2" to keep the temperature down. Cost ~~ 10 cents/cup.
