The media could not be loaded. I just started making my own kefir at home with this stuff, and wow, it's so cool! At first, I thought it would be hard to switch from the kefir you buy at the store to making it myself, but these grains made it super easy and fun. They were ready to go and started making my milk into this super healthy drink right away. After a few times of doing this, the kefir got even better - it was thicker, had a little fizz, and tasted amazing.Now, I'm on my fifth batch, and it's even tastier than the ones before! You can do so much with the kefir you make. I've thrown it into smoothies, used it instead of other stuff in recipes, and just had it plain with a little honey on top. The grains grow fast, so there's always more than enough kefir for me to try new things with.If you're thinking about making your own kefir, this is definitely the way to go. It's not just about the grains being really good; it's about having fun making something that's good for you. Here's to feeling great and having awesome kefir to drink!Edit after 7th batch of kefir:Just one word: Bulletproof! This kefir not only keeps producing, but the grains are actually getting bigger. Absolutely thriving!

I received these grains with the goal of boosting my gut health through exploring fermented foods. It is nicely sealed and arriving with clear instructions, showcasing attention to detail. When it came to trying them out, I started small with just 1/2 cup of milk, following a tip I found. The organic pasteurized milk worked just fine; it turns out these grains thrive on lactose, and this milk had plenty.Over the first week, I gradually increased the fresh milk to about 2 cups, and interestingly, I didn't discard any milk, contrary to common recommendations. My fermentation routine, not exactly by the book, involved around 20 hours per batch, split between 8 hours on the counter and 12 in the fridge. Within just a week or so, the grains more than tripled in size, showcasing their robust nature. Refrigeration slowed them down but didn't dampen their vitality.Adding to the delight, when I initially received the jar full of kefir grains, it was more than just a tablespoon! That's plenty for a big family like ours – six people. My dad is now into kefir more than me, and even the kids are getting used to the taste. It's become a family affair. I truly appreciated the responsiveness and assistance were high-end. The kefir grains exceeded expectations; they're seriously active, even from the first batch. I'd highly recommend these grains to anyone looking to embark on a gut-healthy journey.

I ordered two batches of the wet kefir grains. The first order was during the winter and worked well and quickly started making kefir, which improved in quality over time. The second order was a few months later and took a long time to start making kefir, and I think that the shipping conditions may have been harsh for that order. I thought that the grains were dead for the second order and asked the company if they would send another jar. They did, and they gave me a tracking number for it at no cost, and they also told me to not give up on the slow grains yet because other customers with the same problem were able to start making kefir after being patient with the grains for a long time. The tracking information says that the replacement will arrive here in a few days, but the grains that I thought were dead have started to make kefir.

I recently got my hands on these grains from Amazon. I'm thrilled, with my choice. Being someone whos always on the lookout for ways to boost my gut health these little grains have truly made a difference for me.The instructions were crystal clear and easy to follow making the whole process sailing. In a matter of days I had fresh homemade kefir ready to savor.The real magic unfolded when I integrated kefir into my regimen. Not is it tasty and revitalizing. It has also made a noticeable difference, in aiding my digestion.It's rewarding to know that each sip of kefir packs a punch of probiotics that surely work wonders for my system overall. And also, I can personalize the flavor by adding fruits or sweeteners to suit my taste buds.When it comes to value these kefir grains are a steal. It's a one time investment that keeps giving back unlike store bought kefir which can burn a hole in your pocket over time.I highly suggest trying out these grains. Whether you're experienced in fermentation or just starting out I encourage you to give them a shot – your digestive system will appreciate it.

Great product!

I’ve read the previous review on this product and I have to say that my experience with these kefir grains has been completely different. First off, it's important to know that smaller kefir grains are actually a sign of freshness and health. They might take a little time to adapt, especially if they've been exposed to extreme temperatures, but once they do, they produce a fantastic, rich kefir.I’ve used these grains in different conditions, and yes, sometimes the first batch might not be as sour, especially if the grains are still adjusting. However, the flavor improves with each batch. By the second or third fermentation, you get that classic kefir tang, and the grains really start to thrive.The idea that these grains don’t produce proper kefir isn’t true in my experience. With a little patience, they’ve produced some of the best kefir I’ve ever had—perfectly balanced and great for drinking, adding to smoothies, or pouring over cereal. I highly recommend giving them a try, and I’m sure you’ll be as satisfied as I am.

Picture shows my grains after opening them just a few mins ago. Wasn’t expecting them to look like little peices in water are they a still valid or are they expired? Will change rating if this is resolved or are still good.
