What do I do if my water kefir grains are slimy and smell bad?

This is usually a result of over-mineralization: Sugars such as coconut sugar or honey can contain to many minerals and it is best to switch to an unrefined sugar.

Warmer temperatures can also make your grains culture faster and can lead to over mineralization, shorten the culturing time and change the grains to new sugar water more frequently.
