Very good.
The cranapple kefir recipe was very good. For the most part, this book is good. The only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is because I would have liked a much more comprehensive book. Some info is given, and there are many recipes. But I would have liked to see more recipes and more in depth sections on the technicalities of water kefir, going much deeper than they do. That said, compared to the page length of other water kefir specific books that Amazon was advertising, if I recall correctly, this one was the longest. So it's probably better than the others.

If it is free go for it, if you are paying for it keep looking.
This book is okay. A good intro to water kefir. It was free when I bought it and I was happy with the info it gave me. I don't think I would have been happy to pay for this book--it is little light on content. This is my first time making water kefir and this book helped me understand the how and why of making it. If it is free go for it, if you are paying for it keep looking.

Unlocking the Mysteries of Water Kefir
I chose this rating because I couldn't rate it at 3 1/2 stars. The major thing missing from this book is photos!! People need to see what these little critters look like to ascertain if they are doing the right thing with theirs. There is a good section on explaining the history of kefir grains and how to ferment and different varieties of ferments e.g. adding different ingredients for secondary ferments. I'd recommend this book for people who are already proficient in fermenting kefir and wanting to increase their flavour bases.
