Hope it goes well you need to wait until grains rise to top and some separation at bottom takes me about 24 hours at moment but we do have heating on a few hours a day so could take you longer. Last summer in the heatwave it was fully fermenting in about 10 hours which is harder to manage.At the moment it's still milk.But hopefully tomorrow something will have happened. I expect it to be slow though, the warmest spot in my house is currently 12 °C, and usually colder.
I've just tried adding flavour to mine - I strained the kefir when ready as normal and then added some grated lemon zest to the fermented kefir and left out for a second fermenting without the grains just the lemon zest for 12 hours. Meanwhile I started my normal next batch of kefir with The grains. The lemon zest second ferment kefir is thicker and delicious would recommend when you get in full production.
Good luck with your first kefir meanwhile.
