Freshly Fermented – Organic Certified Milk Kefir Grains Starter Culture, 10 Grams

The grains arrived fresh, well packaged, and were ready to go straight away. Within a couple of days they were making a thick, tangy kefir with a lovely authentic flavour. Instructions were clear and easy to follow, and the grains look strong and active. A great quality starter if you want to make your own kefir at home.

I bought this nearly 6 months ago, and it (literally) goes from strength to strength, even after recovering from a frozen sample. Once you get used to it, you may like it stronger, but you can make it milder or stronger, depending on how long you let it grow. Tips: 1) When you first start, use only a small amount of VERY fresh whole milk (about half a pint tops) and gradually increase once it gets going. 2) Get a couple of fermenting jars as shown. Keep them clean. 3) Once fermented, drain through a plastic sieve, then put about half of the solids back into the (cleaned) jar for the next batch. Throw the rest of the solids back in the liquids and blend with a hand-held blender, before putting in the fridge. This produces a nice thick liquid. You will never want to go back to the bland supermarket kefir. We add it to our breakfast, it goes well with granola and fruits.

I brought these kefir grains because I wanted to start making my own kefir for the first time. They arrived on time and we'll packaged with a leaflet to get instructions off the site. Ive only had to purchase the grains once because they keep growing and I can freeze them for when I might need them later on.wpuld definitely recommend 👌

The expiry date was very close to the date of arrival. I was disappointed.

I had to wait 6 days for the grains to arrive by post. They appeared to be well packed and healthy, judging by their colour. I had ordered 10g and I weighed them at 9g but its no biggie this might have been my scale’s error. After reading carefully the instructions I tried to follow them precisely and in 7 days I noticed that the kefir they produced began having a decent taste and I started consuming it. Today (day 12, last picture) I can say the taste has improved even more, although I do think there is more room for it. I think it has about doubled in size as well. Generally I am content with my purchase, especially considering that kefir grains are hard to find, so I think it is well worth it. 👍

It is best to use a mason-type jar with a screw-on lid. Place the Kefir grains in the jar, add about 30ml of whole milk, and leave in a warm place or if it is cold, place a towel to trap in the warmth. It can take one to three days to be ready. Sieve out the grains from the kefir, place the grains back into a clean jar, and add 60ml of milk. Repeat as above twice more, doubling the amount of milk. the Kefir grains are now ready to make a full jar. Never wash the grains. Best Kefir grains on Amazon and I have tried a few different ones.

Dear Sirs I have been a user of kefir for many years, however I travel and therefore find that the restrictions on customs mean that one can’t take this product through customs, with any sense of responsibility. However I also find that storing or retaining grains is subjective as to their viability. I therefore raise the Question of cost. The price of grains is now almost that of Gold!! admittedly these are two different commodities and could potentially last for the same period. However if your genuine intentions are for the benefit of mankind and not just to exploit a market that promotes good health etc, then I believe that your prices should be reduced, as the continuing promotion of a product that has never been disproved as bogus or not doing what it says on the tin, leads me to believe that an acceptable reduction in price, would be beneficial to more people and as well as promoting your product, would also increase sales to the benefit of all.

Works exactly as the instructions tell you. The kefir grains hydrated within 72 hours and from the second ferment onwards have performed really well. After making 5 litres of kefir, the grains are ready to divide, to double my production.
