My daughter and I love our homemade Instant Pot yogurt. I have a go to method, but I was intrigued when I read about an easier way using Fairlife milk on one of the Instant Pot Facebook groups. They also refer to it as “no cook Instant Pot
My daughter is lactose intolerant 
An easier method with thicker yogurt and no straining using a product I always have in the fridge?
I was all in.
So I tried it last night.
How to make Fairlife Instant Pot Yogurt
I made sure my Instant Pot 
I followed the directions people have given all over this very popular Facebook group:
I poured in the 52 ounce container of full fat Fairlife milk.
Then I stirred in a tablespoon of 2% Fage plain Greek yogurt.
(I usually do full fat yogurt, but I only wanted a small container since I was making my own yogurt and full fat was only available in giant tubs.)
Then I put the lid on and hit the yogurt button.
That’s all you’re supposed to do with this method.
I went to bed.
No Cook Yogurt Results
The yogurt looked thick and lovely when I opened the Instant Pot
I put on the Instant Pot silicone lid 
I came back about five hours later and the yogurt was completely chilled.
I had high hopes when I saw how little whey was on top – there was no straining needed. I hate straining, even with a yogurt strainer
It was so thick my spoon stood up in the yogurt!
The Taste Test
My daughter was excited to dig into the bowl of Instant Pot yogurt and strawberries I handed her.
“Ma? This doesn’t taste good. It’s different than usual. I don’t like it.”
I thought she was crazy! It was so thick! The spoon stood in it!
So I tasted it.
Oh.
She was right.
While it was thick and creamy, it had no flavor. It was missing the yogurt tang.
We aren’t fans.
If you like a very mild yogurt, this is for you.
I think I’ll try again giving it more than eight hours. If that doesn’t work I’ll go back to my usual Instant Pot yogurt recipe.
Have you tried Fairlife Instant Pot 
Funny u should say that. I made it last night for the first time and totally agree with u. Tasteless!
Yes it is tasteless & has tangy taste. That is a “virgin” yogurt. Is up to you to add what you like as a sweetener (honey, stevia, agave, etc), vanilla, cinnamon, you own homemade strawberry jam, etc. It will be your own yogurt creation.
no whey? The whey contributes greatly to the tang. I also wonder about the “lower sugar” claim- Lactobacillus and Bifidus — just two of the many types of lactic acid microorganisms — convert lactose sugars in milk into lactic acid. As you know, acid has a tangy taste (vinegar is acetic acid, lemon juice is citric acid.) This milk takes out the sugar and lactose – so the basis of the “tang” is gone before you start.
I made yogurt with Fairlie milk before I had an instant pot and it came oUT great, but I used about 4 or 5 tablespoons of Greek yogurt starter. Wonder if that makes a difference.
Was ot tangy?
Mine came out great I incubate for 13 to 15 hours
I always heard that straining made it more tart. I’m going to try tonight with Fairlife and see how it turns out.
Not really…it’s more the longer you ferment it makes it more tangy and the longer you strain makes it more thick.
The first time I made FL yogurt I had the same result, BUT, if you let it run 10 hours instead of 8 it is nice and tangy. Longer incubation yields more tartness / tang.
I use Fairlife and get about 2-3 cups of whey. I use fat free Fairlife. We love it.
If you use whole milk you have full fat yogurt. The little spoon full of starter is not where the fat comes from. That’s where the necessary bacteria come from.
The longer you incubate the more tang. We loved it! I did it for 8 hours and I also added Nestle Natural Bliss sweet cream to give it a bit of sweetness. We, as a family, eat yogurt ALL the time. It is a staple in our home. Making this costs the same as my brand I buy at the store, however, yields more then the large tub I buy. My husband states he likes this better than our usually $7 tub we buy . . . this will be our go-to yogurt from now on! PS I did not strain mine either, for tartness you incubate it longer, for the thickness you strain it.
We totally loved it, but we add a can of sweetened condensed milk and we like a sweeter, less tart yogurt.
Are you familiar with Jeffery at pressureluckcooking.com? He shows how to make yogurt both ways in the instant pot. In the creamy version he also puts in sweetened condensed milk, and says to leave it in the pot for at least 8 hours. His Greek yogurt he did for 10 hours. He is also on YouTube and Facebook.
Do you still strain it?
I love my cold start. I prefer it to tangy.
I prefer a milder taste so the Fairlife yogurt is perfect for me. And so easy! I did strain the whey off mine and it thickened almost as much as cream cheese!
You have to incubate it longer. I did for 12 hours and it was perfect.
