Making 3 gallon batches of yogurt

We get milk from our two dairy goats that we like to make yogurt from. We always struggled to get consistent results until this past year we started using our instant pot (electric pressure cooker). It has a yogurt setting, basically we pour a gallon of raw goat milk in, put the lid on and press a button, it heats it to
180ish, then turns off. Comes down to 110, we open the lid, put a 1/2 cup of a live heirloom yoghurt in, press another button and it keeps it right at 110 for however many hours you want it to incubate. Worked consistently every time, such a relief!

This year we'd like to make larger batches (3 gallons worth). I found this electric pressure cooker that is big enough for 3 1/2 gallons, it also has a yogurt setting. Anyone had experience with this brand?

Also thought about getting this, it's cheaper and used for keeping soup at a certain temperature for catering events, you can adjust it to any temperature between 100-190 and fits 3 1/2 gallons as well.

Interested to hear anyone else's experience with making yogurt in larger batches. Thanks!

Do you own a crockpot or slow cooker? Especially one of the older brands?

I have made a lot of yoghurt in mine.  Unfortunately, I bought two of the newer ones which cook hotter than my old one.  When we moved I got rid of my old one.

I have not tried making yoghurt in one of these newer ones.  I do think it will be doable with a probe cooking thermometer to monitor the temperature.

I didn't know this was a thing.  I'm glad I know now, thank you.
