Milk kefir is a fantastic way to add beneficial probiotics and enzymes to your diet. Milk kefir is easy and fun, and our cultures make it simple. Milk Kefir grains are a kind of strain of bacteria and yeast that "eat" the lactose in milk, turning it into lactic acid, CO2, and ethanol. This process also thickens the milk into a drinkable yogurt-like consistency. These potent probiotics can help improve digestion, boost energy levels, and support your immune system.

Kefir grains are the living symbiotic colonies of yeast and bacteria that convert milk in to the probiotic powerhouse that is milk kefir. As the kefir grains digest the lactose in the milk, they create that tangy, creamy taste and texture that makes milk kefir what it is.

Making raw milk kefir is incredibly easy. Unlike raw milk yogurt, there is no need to keep a separate starter made from pasteurized milk. There are a few special considerations, however, when using raw milk to make milk kefir.
Once the grains are separated and transferred to fresh milk, the resulting liquid is milk kefir. Since the grains have been removed, the milk kefir can be further cultured and flavored, according to taste preference. This culturing period is the second fermentation.
The lactose found in milk is the primary food supply for dairy cultures. The cultures feast on the lactose and convert it into the tangy lactic acid we find in milk kefir or yogurt. Because the lactose is consumed in the fermenting process, any cultured dairy product is lower in lactose than the milk before culturing.
