• Place pan in a large bowl with ice water and cool milk down to 110 degrees.
• Place 3 T yogurt in a small bowl and mix with about 1/2 cup of warm milk.
• Pour pan of warm milk into a one quart jar, then add yogurt mixture.
• Partially fill a 1 gallon drink cooler with 110 degree water (I use one with the spout in the lid, but any small cooler will work).
• Place jar in cooler and make sure the water comes up to just below the lid.
