Tasted and there’s very little change. Shook up the jar a bit to get the bacteria all mixed in.

Tasted and there’s a bit of a difference now. Less salty, a bit of tang. Strained it out and put it in the fridge.

Had the first glass of the kvass. It’s slightly salty and fairly beet-y. Not a lot of acid, but it was refreshing enough. I wish it had fermented more but I didn’t feel comfortable letting it sit much longer.
