Making yogurt at home is super easy, and can save your budget a ton of money too! Why Make Your Own Yogurt: Homemade yogurt tastes nothing like store bought yogurt - easily 10x better. It is creamy, and has the most balanced flavor. You can experiment with your process which allows you to control the texture and tang of the final result. Not only is it the best tasting, it is very cost effective. In our house we save on average $15 a month making yogurt at home, $180 a year!
