Yes, it is called leban, and is delicious. Longer you let it drain the firmer/harder it gets. Can press it for a hard cheese. I like it as a fairly soft cream cheese. You can flavor it as you like - our favorite is with bits of onion and hot pepper, but a sweet cream cheese with cinnamon and stevia is also really good. Sara

Gotcha!  I misunderstood.  I have never done that.  Is that how you make
your own cream cheese?

   Um, no, I was talking about straining the finished kefir, not
separating the kefir from the grains.  I use a plastic strainer to do
that and it takes seconds to do.  I am refering to then separating the
finished kefir, which does take hours or even weeks if you are looking
for a harder cheese.   Sara
