#kefir grains that ferment cows’ milk can also be used to ferment #soya milk

The greater acidification of soya milk by kefir grains may be due to qualitative
differences in the availability of fermentable sugars (lactose in milk and stachyose,
raffinose and sucrose in soya milk

in soya milk grains the proportion
of protein was 1±5 times that in milk grains, while polysaccharide was about half that
for milk grains

@Remittancegirl @urlyman In my youth I bought #soya milk and other products by the palette load. Now allergic to most of them. However, I do remember taste and quality was _very_ brand- and hence probably process-specific. I tried making it many times, but always ended-up with mine tasting like the worst brands. I strongly suspect the issue might be oxidation due to the process temperature and exposure to [dissolved] air during. Not a lot you can do about that in a simple kitchen.
"If China switched to buying more, or even all, of its soya from South America, prices could increase for UK companies whose import infrastructure is locked in to the South American supply chain. To keep chicken prices low, some supermarkets and wholesalers may start selling fresh chicken produced overseas, which can be reared to much lower welfare and environmental standards than in the UK.
