The subsequent batches get "reedy" and do not taste nearly as good as the original batch. What am I doing wrong? (I heat the milk to about 170F and then cool to room temperature before inoculation with starter and then let it set until it thickens. I try to remove the top as little as possible) I have had a lot of trouble using homemade kefir as starter for a second (and ongoing) batch.

Hi,
I’ve got Kefir from a relative of mine and I dunno where she got it from, it doesn’t look like powder but it doesn’t look as big as the pictures I see of kefir grain. so how will I know if it’s actually “live kefir grains” or just some sort of starters, is there anyway I can tell?
