When to give up?

I got grains over 3 weeks ago now and they have shown only signs of yeast and zero thickening of the milk. The grains rise to the top immediately when milk is poured over them and they clump up there without fermenting the milk evenly too.

Im on my 4th gallon I think now. Very sick of wasting good milk at this point.

I got the temperature at 68-75 and go for about 24 hours. I just changed the ratio of grains to milk because the grains grew too much. 5 grams of grains to 250ml milk.

Hope it finally works, but next week I am going to buy different grains

TLDR; grains yeasty af for weeks after arriving.
