Almost everything made at home naturally will taste different because of the preservatives and the processes used to make it.

When I first rehydrate my grains the milk smelt _horrible_ - like liquid rotten cheese. I thought 'Am I going to have to drink _this_ to be healthy?' But my grains settled down and now I can't get enough of the stuff. I never think about it as being _sour_ but rather _tart_ . Love the stuff!

Excellent video Alastair. You present very well. I was given grains about a month ago by the lady who supplies me with eggs from her chickens. I am now brewing my own kefir and it’s doing very well and now thicker and your advice has been very helpful. Soon I will be spreading the love and giving away some of my grains as they are multiplying. Look at the Zoe program regarding how to eat the right foods for you and you will see that fermented foods is very important. If anyone out there wants to feel better and is ready to change how they eat the I recommend Zoe program. My next adventure will be cheese making! Thanks Alastair ❤

I made sauerrkraut as a curtain raiser (I'd made it before) for trying to make kimchi as one of my lockdown projects. Specialty shops were closed, so there were some ingredients unavailable and I had substitute things I could find. It turned out delicious & I've kept on making it, whenever cabbage is on sale. Now I've planted some in my veggie patch. (I don't know if you have a video for kimchi. I followed 'Emmy made'.)

To make Kefir thicker: Let curds and whey separate. Mix and immediately place in the refrigerator. The next day the whey will be on top. Pour it out and enjoy a thicker Kefir. Pesonally, I let it sit one more day in the fridge.

Thank you! :) ... And... someone asked about fermenting plant based milks... YES, you can kefir-ferment different plant based milks. And not only milk, but also the various byproducts of plant based milks that you get when making milk at home. I kefir-ferment almond pulp and soy pulp (okara, that's what's left from soy beans after making soy milk), soy milk water and soft tofu. I usually drink it as is, bc but sometimes, after 24h kefir-fermenting I add some banana pieces/blueberries/a slice of apple and a tsp of honey and let it ferment for another 24h - this will further feed the good bacteria growing there and make the drink effervescent and zesty. I usually don't add sugar or other sweeteners or flavors to my fermented drink bc I love the sour flavor. But to the fermented pulp sometimes I will add raisins, cinnamon and some raw buckwheat/cereal - makes a delicious crunchy breakfast :)

THANK YOU for this information! YOU REALLY TAUGHT ME SOMETHING I WANTED TO LEARN AND KNOW! because i live in India and i was just thinking how to make Kefir at home without buying Kefir Grains or the store bought Kefir Drink since THEY ARE EXPENSIVE! and well many people do get cheated in India especially because you may see good pictures of Kefir grains only for you to try it and find that they were not working! and if you would use the Store bought version, as you mentioned in Dennis Rodder's question, it might not taste like the Store bought version you would expect your own Kefir to taste! Plus i don't know anyone in my area who makes Kefir at home from whom to ask for Kefir grains and or help since no one near me knows what the heck Kefir is, that's except if you are from some well to do family to "waste" money just because the term "Kefir" is an "IT" thing (a.k.a: Trending) because well instead of the elders in India will tell you that you get all that from drinking Spiced Buttermilk (a VERY common Summer's drink) or Lassi ( you get that in Two flavours 1)Sweet! and 2) Salty) and well in India we call Yogurt "Curds" in English or "Dahi" in Hindi...... we also can make Fresh Panner or Indian Cottage Cheese which can be used for sweets like Rasgulla (which is similar to Gulab Jamun except Rasgulla is made from Paneer and is white in colour and also, is more spongy and contains less sugar than Gulab Jamun)

Hi. I’m so glad I found your video. I hope that you can help me. I got raw milk and I bought this kefir starter it’s called. When I open the envelope it is a powder. I thought I had gotten the grains but I did not know till I opened the little envelope. I pour it in the milk, mixed it and left it in a cupboard for 36 hours. When I took it out of the cupboard it it looked like only a couple of inches at the top was bit different (creamier) than the rest, the color a bit darker than regular milk and when I tasted it it was tangy not too much but it was thin not like the one store bought. My questions are: how do I know it’s good? Since it was not grains what I ended up buying does it mean that there the powder turns to grains? in the picture of the product, it looks like grains….. After 36 hours, do I put it in the fridge and drink it and “hope for the best?” (Not to get sick) Do I need a machine to make it? Since it’s cold now, my flat is not as warm inside………… -lease please please reply!!!!! Thank you!

Hi, ferment kefir grains in full fat milk for 24 hours. This length of fermentation reduces the lactose (milk sugar) by around 75%. The kefir grains feed off the lactose.

@AzaleaBee
@AzaleaBee 4 ай бұрын
It depends upon what kind/taste of kefir you want and the bacteria/yeast in your environment. Using a closed but loose cover makes a kefir that has less yeast influence and therefore a completely different taste. Something some people prefer.. and of course it changes as the seasons/temperatures change. I usually loosely cover with a solid lid, I prefer that taste and the ease of use The important thing is, if using a solid jar.. it should be loose fitting.. enough for CO2 to escape.

Hi, could I ask your help please? I'm wondering if repeatedly storing milk kefir grains in the fridge (with milk covering) will lessen their potency over time? My main problem is ..instructions say how to make the milk kefir and each batch, after 24 to 36 hours is ready to drain and store in fridge. That one batch will be enough for many days so what do I do with the kefir grains inbetween? I can't keep making more batches that will be too much. What is best to do inbetween batches?

I have been making smaller batches. 300ml milk only. Then I split the batch of grains when they got too big and made 2 batches of kefir. One for morning one for night. Both about 300ml milk in size. I will have to remove some grains soon as they are growing too large for that amount of milk. My dog loves them.

I've been making milk kefir for over a year now, and my kefir grains keep growing, more and more. I filter them out of the processed kefir with a plastic fine mesh strainer. But lately (the last couple months), the grains haven't been processing milk the same way, and I'm worried that some of them might be dead or unhealthy. But I don't know how to separate healthy from unhealthy grains! They are all the same size, color, and shape. But they are not processing milk in the same way, and it's taking longer. I even had some milk go bad, as the grains in it didn't process into kefir at room temp after 72 hours! I might have had a too small amount of grains, but it was the same amount of grains (1oz) that used to process 24 oz of milk just fine. Any help? How do the people who send you grains cultivate them? How do I get rid of unproductive grains and keep just the productive ones?

My grains started doing that so I made one batch after another without refrigerating them until they became strong again. It’s also good to take out some of the bigger grains that are a little yellow and give those to your dog or cat. Or just change them up. If that doesn’t work buy a new batch. I’ve been making and giving away kefir for years now. Hope that helps.

Kefir grains are small, gelatinous clusters of bacteria and yeast that are used in the fermentation of milk to produce kefir, a cultured dairy product. Despite the name "grains," they are not grains in the traditional sense (like wheat or rice) but are rather a symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast (SCOBY). The term "grains" is used because of their appearance, which resembles small, translucent grains or curds.

One thing I wish I knew before starting milk kefir is that kefir should not have lumps in it. I started making kefir a month ago and only just (today) found out that these lumps mean that it is overfermented.
@freshlyfermented9273
@freshlyfermented9273 Жыл бұрын
Hi Vera, I'm not sure if that's strictly true. By nature Milk Kefir separates into whey and "curds" (More of a foamy thing than curds) and that itself is a sign of over fermentation, Lumps in the milk most likely means something else. If you find lumps in your Milk Kefir, thats a pretty good indication that the milk has expired rather than fermented. It may be an issue with your grains not working that could be causing that.

Love this. But you aren't on Twitter. Hate that I just got into kefir. But the opinions on what to do are insane. One woman carried on about never using metal while scooping the grains out of a cheap metal pot with a metal spoon. Another guy showed how to GENTLY skim off the curd to drink and tossing the whey. Any how, I've had my grains over a month THANKYOU. THE FIRST BATCH from 'not you" were DOS it took 4 days and the heat rendered them useless. The ones I received from you or your associate proliferated like gremlins and now I am scared. Anyhow the first batches were ok and of course got better and better. This last batch we foamier than ever and the top almost blew off. One mason jar actually broke from the bottom. I was concerned about the high foam. Is it because I covered it with a loud instead of something breathable... Wait.. After WRITING that I realised YES! Don't put a metal lid. But just in case do I have anything to worry? And I put half and half in a jar and OMG it produced big fat grains. But now I'm worried because they said ultra pasteurized will kill the grains. Is this true?
@freshlyfermented9273
@freshlyfermented9273 Жыл бұрын
So as a rule we usually say to try and use something breathable while fermenting, so i'm assuming the foam is caused by a gas build up in your jar, You should just try using a tea towel with some elastic around it, as that tends to be the most popular way. And about the ultra pasteurised milk, I would be extremely surprised if that type of milk killed your grains. The reason we recommend pasteurised milk is because there's not those armies of bad bacteria in them that will battle it out with the good bacteria in the grains, so in theory if none of those bad bacteria colonies are in the milk due to it being "Ultra Pasteurised" They should be fine. That being said If you are worried about the health of your grains, you can always take a fraction of the grains you have and experiment with them. Thanks for the comment though, I'll have a look what we can do about making a twitter account :)

My friend who gave me my first jar stated she uses fresh fruits (the berries group) and then a teaspoon of honey to sweeten up any bit of the kefir being ornery. And bananas, which she said helps to sweeten the kefir more.

No, use milk kefir grains. I recently bought organic milk kefir grains and I've been fermenting them in goat milk. I have issues with cow milk but I'm absolutely fine with goat milk. Just strain out the little cup of milk they put the grains in, to post them to you. Add your goat milk to the grains, 24 - 48 hours, you have your goat milk kefir! Remember it won't be as thick as cow milk kefir, just because goats milk has a different fat content to cows milk.

Lactose is milk sugar. I'm pretty sure it's not a fat. Besides, milk kefir grains digest the lactose so finished milk kefir shouldn't have any. Good luck.

Yep lactose is the sugar in milk, but some people are intolerant to the fats in dairy products, but that is not lactose intolerance. If you can't tolerate any dairy products (i.e. hard cheese, butter) then dairy fats are the problem not lactose.
