Place milk in a large pot and heat to 185-200°F, stirring frequently to prevent a skin from forming.
Cool the milk to 100-110°F.
Pour ½ cup of the warm milk into a separate clean jar or bowl. Mix in the yogurt, stirring until yogurt is well blended. Add mixture to the remaining milk and mix well.
Cover the jar or bowl with a lid, wrap in a moist, warm towel to keep in heat, and place in the oven. Turn on the oven light to keep warm, and let the bacteria do its yogurt making magic for 5 hours.
Line a mesh sieve with cheesecloth, and pour yogurt in. Place over a large bowl and let strain in the fridge for a few hours (or overnight), until it reaches a consistency you like.
