When fermenting, yogurt must be kept around 110o F(43
o C). A cooler environment will not facilitate fermentation, and higher
temperatures will kill the bacteria needed for fermentation. Also, the maintenance of a consistent safe
temperature keeps your yogurt safe to eat once finished. The best results are usually
assured by the use of an incubator.
