Yogurt -- what went wrong?

[Guest guest]

Okay, I’ve been making the yogurt for a while now with

no problem, but something really weird happened with my latest batch. I just

pulled my mason jars out of the dehydrator and noticed that all of the jars

have about half an inch of clear liquid on the bottom, and then it looks like

the yogurt is suspended on top.

What happened? For info sake, I made some jars with

half-and-half and some with cream. Starter is the yogourmet – all the

stuff I normally use. All the jars have the clear liquid on bottom. My yogurt

is normally white and creamy all the way down.

I haven’t smelled or tasted it yet, but I’m

hoping someone can tell me that the batch is still okay to eat. I can’t

afford more dairy for a while, and I’ll be so sad if it’s ruined. I

have it in to chill, trying to be optimistic.

Any theories?

Ugh. Yogurt fairies. Fickle things sometimes.
