Before you start...Do you have a Pressure Cooker and a Dehydrator? I highly recommend getting both!

You put in 2% of each agar powder and dry nutrient per unit mass water.

1000ml water (=1000g case you didn't know)
20 g powdered agar
20g powdered LME

That's a good starting point.  You may adjust a bit from there.  I add 10% more agar (22g) because I like a more solid texture, and sometime people like adding a bit less nutrient than that.

The 2% always confused me because I dosnt know that MLS were equal to grams in weight...

1000ml of water also occupies 1000 cubic centimetres of space.

Looks perfect to me, there is some frothing post-shake. Mine is actually darker at 2% LME + 2% a-a. If you like, add food coloring next time: it looks more fun and it's actually easier to see stuff.

Once you get it poured in the petris or no pours it'll be super transparent in a large vessel it always looks more cloudy.
