Activated well, good grains, very pleased

I’m on my second pack of these grains and would appreciate some expert advice. I've tried using both full cream milk and raw milk from an organic shop. My first batch turned to whey and curd very quickly (24 hours). With this second batch, I used about 300ml of milk for the 6g of grains.
I always strain the grains out and store the finished kefir in an airtight jar in the fridge. However, after a few days, it separated, tasted sweet initially, and has now become bitter and unpleasant.
I have two specific questions for the seller:
1. How do I stop the kefir from turning bitter and separating so quickly in the fridge? I am aiming for that thick, tangy consistency similar to the one sold at Coles.
2. How do I clearly recognize the grains to separate them for the next batch? Sometimes it's hard to tell what is a grain and what is just a thick curd.
Thank you so much for your help and for providing such active grains!

Love it
Takes a little to get used to the ambient temp but a couple of trails and bang beautiful healthy sour dough
Thanks guys

Rrally happy with my purchase of the kefir gains. They were delivered fresh and active. I have been fermenting kefir and am so impressed with the result. The kefir was sour and acidic and after I left it in the fridge for a couple of days it became more acidic and crisp. Really impressed.

I am new to baking and live starters. I am not sure if this starter constitues as a good starter. However, I was able to bake bread and on my 4th attempt the bread came out very well. I had some issues earlier because the starter did not look 'alive' like they do on socialmedia. I addressed this with the company and they were so sweet and responsive, they helped me immediately and we got there in the end. I am so impressed with the communication by the team and the help they have provided. I will also order the French starter from them in the near future!

Arrived perfectly. 3rd or so batch made and its bubbly and perfect

Does the job well

Easy to get started and absolutely delicious!

The grains that I received were excellent. They started eating and creating good kefir straight away, and it's delicious kefir. Thank you.

Many thanks

I followed instructions and the kefir plant is growing and working well.

I haven't used it myself, but I am so looking forward to including it in a Xmas package for my daughter-in-law who is a real foodie, and a mother earth. She makes her own cheese from her own dairy cow, grows her own vegies, eggs from her chooks, ferments whatever's going and forages.......plus works as a specialist doctor. So this is something rather special for someone that is very hard to buy for.

I have found this company to be very helpful on my new Kefir journey. They very quickly respond to any questions I have had. Keep up the great work.

I love this milk kefir! And it is so easy to make!
