How can I tell that the water kefir is ready?Updated a year ago

You decide when you like your water kefir. It can be enjoyed at any time without any problems. For a mild and sweet kefir, you can finish the fermentation after 24 hours, for a sour result you need up to 72 hours. The rule here is try before you buy, and over time you will find out on your own when and how your kefir tastes best.
