Another yogurt question

[MamaJules]

I make the MaBacon yogurt recipe. It tastes great and gets nice and thick. I make 3 pint size jars at at time -- heat it, cool it, add the starter, sugar, and vanilla, pour into the jars, and put in a cooler filled with hot water. But there is always a layer of gritty stuff at the bottom of the jars. Anyone know what causes that and if there is a way to avoid it?

just after a quick google search It said to try a different starter.OR do not let the milk boil.

[MaBacon]

Humm.. I've made a gallon of yogurt a week for so long now, but I've never had grit on the bottom. I'd say try a different starter too. Also do you strain the milk when you pour it into the jars? I always do that to get out anything that stuck to the pan.

Oh and thanks for using my recipe Gald you like it!
