Short answer: warm up milk, then add a bit of yogurt, stir, and store in container with lid for about a day, at room temperature.
Long answer:
You will need a stove top, live cultures (for example, 6-8 oz of plain yogurt), a liter of milk, a large pot, a kitchen thermometer (optional), a sterile glass container with lid, and a warm environment
First, you will need the cultures for the yogurt. You may purchase a small serving of plain yogurt (check the label to be sure there are no more than two ingredients: milk and active cultures). Begin by warming the milk, about a liter or enough to fill the container you will use, until the milk boils to kill any bad bacteria. Remove from heat and let cool to at least 50c or 122F to assure the cultures will not die. Add the live cultured yogurt to the milk. Whisk the mixture to assure an even coagulation, otherwise it may result in a clumpy Kefir like drink. Place milk mixture in a the container and cap with lid. Place the container in an environment that is warm; depending upon your climate, or if your kitchen may be drafty, you may wish to place it inside the oven with the pilot light on. Allow the mixture to ferment for 24 hours or so, or until desired consistency. Store in fridge and consume within 1 week.
Some suggest using skim milk for a firmer yogurt, and even adding a bit of powdered milk to help thicken the yogurt during fermentation.
