      Kefir made easy

      I have always maintained and used Kefir grains but my last batch of grains was getting tired. I spotted this powdered culture and decided to give it a whirl. It is wonderful! I can easily get 6 quarts of kefir from one packet. I have been sharing kefir packets with friends so they can make their own too!

      I recommend this product

      Delicious taste and easy to use.

      This is so much easier than using kefir gains. I rarely had good results with the grains, but I consistently get a least 7-8 batches from one packet of starter as long as I start a new batch within a week.

      Powdered Kefir Starter

      I like this product. I tried the crystals and found them to be messy and take too much fussing, although it was educational. In short, I appreciate the powder packets. And it is really nice not to have to boil the milk and then cool it before adding the starter.

      Kefir water using juice

      I tried making kefir water according to the directions and it didn't ferment at all. I used 100% cranberry juice (I looked all over on Cultures for Health website as to the type of juice to use but didn't find any information of what type of juice to use) because that is what was recommended (along with fresh lemon juice - which I didn't add this time because the directions didn't call for it - I will try another packet with lemon juice to see if I have better luck) when I make kefir soda with a different brand of kefir starter. I'm not sure why it didn't work. Since I've already paid for the starter packet, I will try again. Hopefully it will work this time.
