I'm newbie to kefir, and am having good results using whole milk. However these days we're encouraged to eat less fat, so we normally use semi-skimmed for normal use. So, apart from the obvious less creamy texture, would the kefir suffer or produce less effective pro-biotics from semi-skimmed?

My wife is drinking kefir. How do you make it if you don't mind me asking
 
Buy a small number of milk kefir grains (from an online supplier in my case) then just keep feeding them with milk. There is plenty of online help on the subject. As time progresses the kefir grains multiply, providing you keep feeding, so eventually give some away (or discard if you must).
