Dear Louis,
I think you should make the agar solution at 3.0 % (2-fold
concentrated) alone. Autoclave it and then mix to the YP medium,
also previously autoclaved and previously prepared at the
desired pH. Then, you should homogeneize it and add dextrose.
I guess your problem is because the low pH and the high
temperature are hydrolizing the proteins of the agar.
Good luck!
