Both jars failed to turn into kefir, after 24 hours.
The regular whole milk was just a soury milk, probably because of the kefir I added to it.
The Jersey Milk developed a bit of yoghurty texture on top, along with milk fat, but still not kefir.
Gonna give them a few more hours and that'll be it.
Next time I try to make kefir, I'll just use kefir grains 😄
quotingYesterday evening, for the first time, I tried to make kefir at home.

I used my favourite store-bought kefir to do it.
Chat GPT said that 30ml of kefir mixed with 250ml of milk is a great ratio.
Made two small jars, one in which I used a generic Tesco whole milk (3.7% fat), and one in which I used Tesco Jersey Milk (4.9% fat).
This morning, after 12 hours, the one using Jersey Milk had some froth on top, while the generic milk did not and it appeared to have not started fermentation.
This evening, I'll see if it was a success or a complete failure 😄
Anyone else on here who makes kefir at home this way? Got any tips for me?
