  4. If the mixture is not bubbly, try adding more flour and kombucha and allow to set on pantry shelf for another day.
  5. The mixture should smell sour. The kefir or kombucha should keep it from turning rancid or moldy. If anything unsightly appears or it smells off, discard and begin again. Trust your instincts on it.
