Kefir is a dairy product that is delicious and rich in probiotics. It offers a variety of health benefits, such as improved immunity, better lactose digestion, detoxification, stronger bone density, and more. Despite this, it can be difficult to find quality Kefir in stores. Many store bought Kefir has added sugars, flavorings, juices and other unnecessary additives. Fortunately, Kefir is simple to make at home, and when you have Kefir making supplies from The Cheese Maker, you can rest assured that you can make the best Kefir available, right in your kitchen. When you want to make Kefir for yourself at home, shop The Cheese Maker for Kefir making supplies today.
We offer Kombucha SCOBYS, kits, and the highest quality tea from local company Rishi Teas. Making Kombucha is easy, takes very little time and will save you lots of money. You can make a gallon of Kombucha and tweak it for the taste you prefer for less than what a bottle costs in the store. Kombucha is a healthy and delicious alternative to soda and any liquid that contains too much sugar and lacks naturally occurring vitamins and healthy bacteria and yeasts.
