For me, keeping the light in the oven on keeps it bit warm. I haven't measured the temperature though. YMMV.

- e-_pusher 5y agoThis is how I make yogurt as well. I can get a pretty consistent 40C in the oven this way.
- cpach 5y agoCool! Do you by any chance have a recipe for making yoghurt…? Any pointers would be appreciated!
- bckygldstn 5y agoI just started making my own yogurt, it's fun, cheap, and really tasty! The basic process is the same between recipes (eg https://www.seriouseats.com/homemade-yogurt https://www.seriouseats.com/homemade-yogurt) but it might take a couple of failures and tweaking (take notes) until you have something that works for you: * Buy a food thermometer (also super useful for baking and cooking meat!) * Heat milk to 85C * Hold between 85C and 90C for 5 mins * Cool to 50C * Add a spoon of yogurt (make a new batch before the old one runs out!) * Keep above 35C for 3-12 hours. You can use the oven with the light on, wrap the yogurt in a blanket and put it in the hot water cupboard, or I like to put it in a cooler alongside 2x as much boiling water in another jar.
- cpach 5y agoAwesome! I should try this. Thank you!
- _xerces_ 5y agoI had an oven once with a bread proofing button and all it did was turn on the oven light! So I use that trick with all ovens now.
