i have the same problem, the water remains really sugary, another thing i noticed was that my grains almost ever grew...the guy who passed me these grains said his grains grow 30% every new batch...mine don't......
recently, i tried to revigurate my kefir grains using this guide:

i only made 3 batches since the "rehabilitation" and keep believing they will recover...
