Guest guest Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 Hi Jazz, That depends on what you mean by done. It has a lot of alcohol by now if you don't remember when you put it in. Give a sip and if it is too strong, make vinegar with it and try again. Remember, with water kefir there is no need to throw anything out. This next batch keep tabs on it. Taste test every day. Strain your kefir grains before it gets too tart. It's done when you like the way it tastes.

So, I took some of my goat's milk grains (nicely washed) and stuck them in a jar with: apple cider lemon juice (fresh) currants peach slices honey Unfortunately I've lost track of the days since I started this (bad scientist - no cookie). How will I know when it is done? Should the first batch be drinkable - or should it be waste as the grains are just converting? Any ideas?

Guest guest Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 Ok Marilyn, Will the grains multiply in the juice the same way that they will in the milk? And, how do I make vinegar?
