燜燒鍋版-- 自製酸奶/優格

4/19/2016 更新：我家裏有個爸爸買給我做月子的悶燒鍋，月子裏媽媽給熬的紅棗水在裏邊燜一天都還是滾熱的，保溫功能特別好！

我前幾天用它來做優格，也不必加溫水，等牛奶降溫到110F（50C）左右，加入菌種，攪拌好，加蓋放到悶燒鍋裏（內鍋取出不用），加蓋保溫一夜，第二天濃稠的優格就好了，一點都不酸，效果特別好。以後就它啦！省錢又環保哦！

Update: 4/19/2016：I have a thermal cooker that dad bought me when I had my son, mainly to make soup and red dates soup for my confinement time.

I was amazed by its ability to retain heat, the soup mom made will stay piping hot in it for the whole day! 

I tried using it as incubator to make homemade yogurt the other day, since it has such good ability to retain heat, I did not add warm water in it, I just wait till the milk become warm, add my starter, stir and placed the yogurt in the thermal pot (inner pot removed), cover with lid and let it sit over night.

The result is amazing, it makes solid, thick, beautiful yogurt (See picture on top of this page!) 

Yay to saving energy with this one!
