KG, and also in truth TM and SL, which I’ve truly cultured for most many years [keeping the societies individual but cultured in synchronous conditions], all converted with regards to appearance, size and as a whole shape throughout the year

What I’ve observed would be that these suggestions were sent as a result of observing differences in appearance alone between some batches of grain. Or because of the sized each kefir-granule, which will make up a certain batch. These are typically maybe not accurate presumptions, if a person would be to go by look and even decoration of grains by yourself. Nor because of the kefir these grains build. These changes be seemingly affected by ecological points such as for example heat modifications due to month, such as culture-techniques while the form of milk-type. Maybe not a really reasonable method to decide differences between SL, TM and KG, and also to claim that these are generally all distinctive together, whenever all those display a common-factor; to adapt to the environmental surroundings and even culture-conditions and media, which leads to the lifestyle changing in dimensions, area structure and overall look, including substance beauty products. Every one of these countries express another typical aspect, the special stresses of encapsulated lactic acid bacterium and yeasts, essential for whole grain development.

To help explain more; unmarried batches of kefir grain transform whenever cultured in different places. Actually, when culturing the exact same group of grains in the exact same area, the batch may vary from period to another, relating to microflora, appearance, form and texture of the grains, including the particular kefir the grain create. These countries develop greater counts of acetic acid bacteria in winter, or under much cooler circumstances. While in summertime, higher counts of lactic acid bacteria were stimulated in best kefir including larger counts of laboratory found in the cereals. It might be fair to suggest that this varying or steady evolution on the microflora has a direct effects to consistency, like the constitution from the matrix itself. E.g. I have noticed that during comfortable conditions the matrix may produce most slime [kefiran], especially then when e-chat cultured in raw goat’s milk. The thickness of this matrix wall or sheath, can vary greatly from thinner, soft, fragile in summer and rubbery with an increase of longevity or harder during winter season.

I have observed over years, the same batch of kefir grain will vary to look at, size and build, from a time with time to another

Various milk-types provides a direct effect about total design and also make right up of this cereals. Whole milk volumes influences inhabitants quantities of laboratory, yeast and acetic acid organisms respectively. Sustaining the traditions in whole milk cultured or retained under cold weather for longer periods strikes the matrix. It’ll be most fast and compact, stronger with greater energy [more hard to tear a grain apart]. The surface of the grain is more expected to produce many lightweight unpredictable lumps covering the whole exterior of each and every whole grain, especially when cultured in cow’s milk products. While warmer temperatures usually has the result regarding the grain having a softer, leaner matrix with better transparency and a general easier surface texture, particularly when cultured in goat’s dairy. But these types of transformations are not just harder or impossible to forecast correctly over potential prediction, improvement takes place gradually over numerous several months [9 to year was common]. And also to start thinking about culturing at ambient temperature, well, i’d like to query this. When we cannot accurately anticipate the current weather over a somewhat short time period as time goes on, how can we be prepared to forecast how the cereals can look at any level, any kind of time point in time in the foreseeable future?
