What Our Customers Are Saying

I couldn't believe it was going to be so easy, but it was. Threw out the first batch as they recommended, but the second batch was perfect and I've been re-using now 3 of the 7-10 times the directions say you can re-use, and that's worked as promised.

Susan

This product was perfect for a short-term kefir relationship. It was easy to use and produced strong results including lovely kefir cream cheese and resultant whey for fermenting vegetables. It provided all of the benefits of infinite-use grains without the commitment!

Roxanne

I received the cultures in a timely manner. They came with clear directions for making my own kefir and have worked very well. I'm on my 4th or 5th batch and they are still working for me. I highly recommend them!

Lauren

This is amazing stuff! Super simple and makes very good tasting milk or water kefir overnight. I will definitely purchase again!

Easy and delicious!

I first used the starter culture a couple of years ago, when we were milking our goat. I had great results with the goat milk, and when we quit milking her, I liked making easy kefir so much, that I continued with organic whole (cow) milk from the store. I quit for a while, and started up again, a couple of months ago. I don't ever recall having a batch not work out. I'd say I have re-cultured 5-7 times from each packet. I typically let it culture for about 36 hours. Probably longer than most people do, but it works for me. I don't remember where I heard or read this, but I add a teaspoon of coconut sugar (and I use almost a 1/2 cup of kefir, rather than 1/4 cup of kefir from the last batch) and then fill the rest of the way in a quart glass jar with milk. I stir well with a wooden spoon, and put a coffee filter on top with a rubberband. About halfway through the culturing, I stir it again.
When first researching kefir, I considered using the grains, but that seemed like a process that would take over my life, and I find the culture powder to be so easy and reliable, that I am sticking with it.
Thanks C.F.H. I appreciate what you guys are doing.
