Hi Donna ! I recently learned about L Rutieri and have made my 1st batch. I did see the separation that you discuss in another video but was odd as I used 2 bowls (vs 8 cups) in the Ultimate Probiotic yogurt maker and 1 came out perfectly and the other has some separation. I strained off the whey from the one and have it in a jar in my fridge. I loved this cultured dairy product ! So not thinking to get another batch going (Thanksgiving) I’m going to have to go a day without my 1/2 cup serving but can I take the capsule of L. Rutieri that I bought to make this ? I’m also confused about using the whey or some of the leftover product. So I can use 2 tablespoons of the whey I have in my fridge INSTEAD OF THE INULIN for the next batch ? How long will my jarred whey last without spoiling ? Sorry for the book ! I hope you enjoyed your Thanksgiving ❤
