The main by-product of cheesemaking is whey, or lactoserum. It is often a challenge to find ways to valuate this bulky “leftover” of cheese production, and this is something we already addressed in the article [[About whey]]. Our little cheese production is no exception to this issue: what to do with the litters of leftover whey? It appears that there is a wide variety of fermented dairy drinks; and among them some rely on a bend of both whey and milk. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kumis Kumis] is a beverage from Central Asia traditionally made with mare or donkey’s milk — the available brands are mostly made with cow’s milk today. Although Kumis is similar to <i>kefir</i>, it has the intriguing ability to get slightly alcoholic, thanks to the sucrose added during fermentation. | The main by-product of cheesemaking is whey, or lactoserum.
