That’s called hooch. You can pour it off or stir back in. Opinions vary.
Generally it’s a sign that the starter isn’t very active/fed regularly enough.

Yep, just stir it back in. It's known as bakers hooch but unless things have got really bad in your household I'd stick to more conventional drinks.
It happens once the activity calms down so is a sign of a less active starter but feed it and it should get going again.

Stupid question, have taken my starter out of the fridge for feeding and ome liquid has seperated on the top. Do i mix it back together before taking out the starter and feeding?
