How about making it in a garbage can with a heating pad?

Gotta love Alton Brown....segment is in the middle of the video.

You can pick up a yogurt maker pretty cheap. i picke one up for about 30 , it came with glass containers. Its just a little warmer that keep heat constant. Easy to make.

I've got some in a ceramic bowl from a crockpot sitting in my MLT with hot water. I think that should keep it warm enough overnight. I wrapped the MLT with a blanket too so the heat would stay in all night. It should work fantastic. By the way, Greek yogurt is nothing more than regular plain yogurt strained to get rid of some of the whey giving you a thicker product.

My first attempt at yogurt was a huge success. I'm sold. The water in the MLT was still very warm this morning and the yogurt turned out great!

We have also had huge success making yogurt. We love how easy it is and how good it tastes. Our little girl (14 months) can't get enough of the stuff. We put up a couple pages on how to make it here:

How to make homemade yogurt.

At the bottom of that page you'll also find a link where we compared two "passive" (non-electric) yogurt fermenters. One is a low-tech jug cooler plus some extra insulation, and the other is the fancier yogotherm.

Making Greek yogurt, you have to use cheese cloth stain plain yogurt for about 3-6 hours.

Fruits yogurt, is add fruits and sugar at the serving time.
