Here's how I make mother's yogurt:
4 cups of yogurt
4 eggs
1.5 cups of sugar
Little bit of vanilla
It's a 1:1:1/2 ratio, and then slightly reduce the sugar.
Cook on stovetop until eggs are cooked. 160 degrees F.
Regular yogurt

I also make my own yogurt. I used to do it in my instant pot, but then I MELTED it on the stove top so now I'm making it in the oven. Here's how I do it:
1 gallon of milk. Almost boil it on the stovetop. (180 degrees F for 10 minutes) Don't burn it because it'll be disgusting.
Then remove from heat for an hour or so until a drop of it on the inside of my wrist feels like nothing. Cover during this process so the cats don't start drinking it and contaminate it.
Add about a quarter to half a cup of yogurt. (Store-bought or previously made at home). Stir.
Preheat oven to any temperature. Lowest setting is fine.
Turn oven off.
Turn oven light on.
It needs to hold 90-100 degrees F overnight. (Or for about 9 hours). In some oven models, the light is good enough for this. Check yours first if you use this method so you don't make something that's not yogurt and not safe.
Place pot in oven. Come back tomorrow. See if it's yogurt. I check by tasting it. I feel like this may not be the best method. Try it at your own risk.
