I fit 4 pt jars in my 8qt duo

I used to make it directly in the pot, but it’s an extra step and extra handling to transfer it to other containers. Now I use 4 widemouth pint jars in my 6 quart pot and 5 fit in my 8 quart pot. I have also stacked widemouth 1/2 pint jars on top of the pint jars in the 8 quart pot. Somewhere along the line, I picked up a 1-1/2 wide mouth jar… it’s good, too. When I stack the jars, the domed lid still has to fit over it to make a nice warm incubation space.

Parent company for Instant Pot is Cornell, which makes Corelle Ware and it is designed to withstand the pressure.

Make it in the pot or in Mason jars inside the pot.

Oui yogurt makes lids for their jars (buy the yogurt and save the glass jars) Then order the lids and make the yogurt in individual jars in the IP. When done and cool put on the plastic lid.

I use 1/2 pint mason jars in my 3 quart.

 

[tusolussanctus]

You just make it in the liner.

 

[bikas888]

No jar needed. Just my stainless insert.

I make mine in the liner, then I strain it for Greek yogurt, then I store in serving size jars.
