Once your yoghurt has set you could try straining it to make a thick and creamy yoghurt, like greek yoghurt or labna (although for the latter you mix lemon juice and olive oil into the yoghurt before straining it). I strain mine through a paper coffee filter but in the past i have used scalded J-Cloth or a scalded cotton tea towel. Just leave it until it has stopped dripping. You can use the liquid in soups and stews and the thick creamy yoghurt is good with stewed fruit, jam, honey or whatever.

Incidentally I use fresh unflavoured yoghurt as a starter - a couple of tablespoons mixed into milk that has been brought to the boil then cooled to blood temperature. I tend to leave it in the machine for at least 6 hours and find it thickens nicely in the fridge.
