    We appreciate the shout out :) Quick note - That white fuzz actually isn't mold, its called "flowers of kefir" You can google that if you want to learn about it more. Generally harmless but it doesn't taste the best. Your kefir looks amazing by the way. Keep up the good work!

    You’re grains look very healthy!! I’ve been making Kefir for about 6 weeks. I am LOVING it! I enjoy working with the grains, straining them and making more. Trying to find that sweet spot of thickness as I find mine to be thinner than I’d like and still need to gone on and try a second ferment with fruit.

    • @SageandStoneHomestead
      @SageandStoneHomestead  Před rokem +5
