Our fresh locally grown Kefir Grains include approximately 32-35 grams of fresh Kefir grains, and instructions on how to care, maintain and propagate your fresh milk Kefir grains.
Our Kefir grains are propagated using only the highest quality fresh local pasteurized cow milk. Real Kefir grains will produce a full flavor profile, making authentic Kefir.
These Kefir grains will propagate, producing more grains. Working with real Kefir grains is easy.
Freeze Dried Kefir Culture: we include one pack of a Freeze Dried Kefir culture which does make delicious single batches of Kefir; the taste and texture is a bit different than Kefir from fresh grains. You can reorder on our site if you like it.
If you want a larger strainer we do offer larger sizes on our site. This strainer comes in two sizes to accommodate the quantity of grains you're straining so you collect all the Kefir grains, especially the baby grains which can fall through some strainers.
Ours are double mesh and their holes are about 1/32nd inch.
