1. Clearly you should be extending your paleo-esque diet to drinking too….

   I’m thinking kumis predates grain alcohol :D.

2. If they didn’t control for fat percent/weight, the study is crap.

3. Waiting until the berries ferment on the bush gets pretty dull, and you have to fight the elephants and the birds for them.

   If you can ferment mare’s milk you should be able to ferment cow’s milk.

   1. If you try it you need to clearly label the jug as “milk experiment,” which also handily assures that your roommates won’t drink it.

   2. IIRC, there are some indigenous folk in the Himalayas and similar harsh frozen climates who do just that. Supposedly, the experience of drinking the stuff is similar to being trampled by the beast itself.

   So, yes you can use cow milk. Presumably any other milk which you happen to have in large quantities (perhaps instead of making Venezualan Beaver Cheese to sell to your local cheese emporium you could make beaver kumis).

   I’m not sure that roommates could be trusted not to drink the “milk experiment”. I knew people who drank bong water.

5. Kumis and mead–milk and honey? That’d be a really strange mixed drink.
