Any Home Bakers Here?

I made yogurt overnight in my Instant Pot, and then drained it the next morning. Because mornings have a lot going on, it drained for quite awhile.

Oh, my. Thick. Creamy. Delicious.

I have given up on saving some for the next batch. When I do this, each successive batch is thinner, until by about the 3rd or 4th, it doesn't set worth a hoot. This has happened with a purchased (dry) culture and with starting with store-bought yogurt. Does anyone know why this might be the case? I save about a cup, same as the amount I would buy at the store.

I figure I can buy a cup of yogurt each time along with the gallon of 1% milk to ensure that I get a good batch of yogurt.
 
Hmmm…. I usually get ‘good’ yogurt out of a started culture (from dry purchased culture) for a long time. I use a single serving glass jar yogurt maker ( holds 6 jars) and use one jar to make a new batch. I tend to leave it in the yogurt maker for the longer setting
