My first attempt at Kefir. Tastes good and was refreshing to drink.

Quality question for anyone who has made it before:

Is it normal for it to be a bit chunky and lumpy?

The pack also suggested using long life milk, I used local fresh, but would long life result in a smoother product?

I assume they suggest long life so they don't get sued, but maybe not.

Are you doing it with the white Tibetian mushrooms?

I was doing it few years back and noticed that when you have fewer, smaller mushrooms, it takes more time (2-3 days) to do it and taste was smoother and lighter. As they grow more, kefir gets stronger very quick (1-2 days) and more sour. I found out about this from my Iranian friend and he was using regular, store bought milk. 🥛

Don't know, the starter was in a packet, so probably not super traditional.

Doing some research, it wasn't large Kefir grains it was very small grains, like a powder.
