Subject: Whey OCD, I Need Help...

I am obsessed with making whey. I made some last night using

Mountain High yoghurt. It turned out perfectly; it looks greenish-

clear, like diluted lime-aid. Unfortunately, I have yet to make a

successful batch using raw milk. 7 days ago I filled a few mason

jars with Organic Pastures raw milk and, aside from a small cream

layer, I have seen no separation of whey. The jars have been kept a

constant 75-76 degrees. In my impatience and frustration, I opened a

jar this evening and poured the loosely solidified contents into a

draining cloth. The whey I obtained was not clear, but cloudy

white. Does it usually take more than 7 days to separate fully? Can

I use this cloudy whey, or should I dispose of it? Thanks for all

the help as I get started in this crazy stuff!
