yogurt advice

got any advice for this novice yogurt maker girl? i want to start making my own; for numerous health reasons -- super duper probiotic count. for monetary reasons -- super duper cheaper than buying as much as i do. for green reasons -- less gamillion plastic cups around for me to recycle -- happier environment. (& believe me, i use those yogurt cups a bazillion times over, but still...no/zero plastic cups = happy world!)

anyone out there make there own & have a particular kit they like or tips to share? let me know! :)

Lo and behold, Alton Brown (love him!) JUST did a show on making your own yogurt the other night. The recipes are here:
