My yogurt did not thicken. Can I reheat and add more starter?

This recipe turns out the best Greek style yogurt, however it took about double the amount of time for the milk to scald to 180 degrees. Next batch will start the slow cooker on higher setting to speed it up. I used the liquid whey to fertilize my garden veggies of tomatoes, cucumbers and zucchini.

In reply to Glenys Prydden. You can use it in place of water in baking recipes, add it to your compost, or use it to soak your grains!

I am really looking forward to trying this recipe. How can I use the liquid that has strained from the yogurt please?
(Just bought some greek yogurt so need to use most of it up before trying making my own)

In reply to Lisa. Oh no!! That's commitment! And yes, timing is something that can be a little tricky!

This was so easy to make, and turned out awesome! I should have planned it out better, because I ended up having to set my alarm for 0100 am to wake up and remove it from the crockpot to wrap it in a blanket, because I started it too late in the day. I set it in my microwave all bundled up, and it was nice and warm still, and thickened when I took it out hours later.
Yogurt has gotten really pricy at my local grocers, so this is gonna be pretty awesome to make here and there, save some money.

Will it go bad if left more than 12 hours? I accidentally left it for 13.5 and was planning to use with my 9 month old baby. Should I just make a new batch?
