Good morning, Geri! Give us the whole process.

Sure! It‘s quite simple and straightforward.

All you need is (base 1 liter of water):

Water-Kefir (a type of Kefir that lives in water) - 6-7 spoons (non-metal!)

brown sugar - 50-60 grams

1 slice of lemon

some dry fruits like apricots, raisins or figs

All ingridients organic - for your and natures sake!

Keep it 48 hours in a air-tight jar - ready!

🫡 I'll give it a try!

Great! It will work. In the end it‘s a little like with bitcoin: do your own research😉

🤣

Can confirm. Got one from Geri. Walter is living in my kitchen.

STEPS

Preparation

Pour the water into the jar.

Add the sugar and stir to dissolve.

Add the fig, lemon slice, and kefir grains.

Fit the lid.

Fermentation

Let the kefir ferment at room temperature for 24 to 48 hours. The fig will rise, and the taste will become tangy.

When the taste suits you, filter the kefir to remove the kefir grains, fig, and lemon.

Set the grains aside for your next recipe. Compost the fruit (or add it to a smoothie).

Flavouring (optional)

Add fruit chunks, juice, or syrup to flavour your water kefir.

Bottling

Pour the kefir into pressure resistant bottles.

Store the bottles at room temperature for 24 to 48 hours.

After 24 hours, open and reseal the bottles to check the level of fizz. For a fizzier kefir, allow it to ferment for longer.

When you are happy with the level of bubbles, place it in the fridge.

If done right, the amount of Kefir in the jar is rising and you can pass it on to others - sharing is caring✌️
