This is fine. Don't forget that you're not making a commercial type of
yogurt, where you need to use sterile utensils.
As long as you do as you are doing, then you should be fine. Having a"
neophobia" about trying to keep too clean can possibly cause more of a
problem for you than you may think or feel... hahaha.
Now I am not saying to go ahead a practice unhygienic values either. But
today, the way that most people are taught to be, I feel that my point re
cleanliness to the point of becoming neophobic holds much validity.

You may well try to hold this taste sensation in mind, but I bet you will
never remember it until your next glass of kefir.

PS Please try not to let my answers inhibit others to input here or there. I
just sound confident, but really, I am as meek as a new born baby. It's my
head that's become too big so at times needs a hand to be put back into
place... hahaha!
