Great video! Definitely going to try this after I type this comment. Also, I'm a farmer so I like to let people know...whole milk is 3.25% milk fat. That's it and it is very easy for most peoples bodies to process. If you like 1%, 2%, ok but most people have no idea that whole milk is that low in fat and it tastes better! Keep eating or drinking dairy in whatever form you like!😊

I do this all the time and it makes sense. I buy a 1 litre bottle of kefir from the supermarket and then divide into three and blend with three 2 litres bottles of organic whole milk. Leave to do it's magic in a warmish place, in the house for 24 hours then refrigerate. Sometimes add a tablespoon or two of honey and some vanilla extract. This helps it fizz a little. Love the stuff. Could easily drink two litres a day.

Make sure the kefir you buy has NOT been pasteurised and get the furthest away use by date too. I have just gone to my fridge to check and the three bottles i have in there are on the fifth day now and are perfect. Good luck.

Few months ago, I bought Kefir grain from online, it cost me $22 for just a table spoon kefir water with a very tiny of so-called kefir grain. Every day I have to separate kefir milk from kefir grain and I'm so tired to filter it and clean it up. I keep kefir grain in milk for a month in fridge and the surface of milk soak in kefir grain became turned yellow or pink color and smell bad so I threw it away. Thank you so much to show me easy economical way to make kefir milk without to buy expensive kefir grain again.

My understanding is that 1,000+ years ago, milk was stored in goat-stomach bags, where digestive enzymes helped preserve the milk. I'm guessing that an observant Bedouin noticed the grains, and saved them, producing more grains, with or without the goat stomach... a happy coincidence of the right bacteria & flora at the right time. That's my story, and I'm stickin' with it!

Thank you, thank you for posting this cost-saving video! I liked and subscribed. Yesterday I paid $8 for one quart of raw kefir from a local dairy farm. It is incredibly smooth and creamy and tastes delicious and my body needs the strong probiotics, but $8 per quart equals $32 per gallon and is way over my budget. I am very grateful to learn to make more raw kefir by adding to a gallon of fresh raw milk, which I got at the farm for "only" $5.31 per gallon.

@@shahidahmed8073 I start with a quart size glass jar and add about a half cup of kefir from my last batch. Then add regular milk to fill the jar to about an inch from the top. I use whole milk but you can use any kind. Stir and cover loosely with a paper towel or plastic wrap. Now just leave the jar out on the counter for about a 36 to 48 hours or until you see it begin to cuddle. It all depends on the temp in your room. Warmer days will ferment the milk faster. I've had to wait 3 days once and it was fine. Then just refrigerate it. But put a regular cap on the jar. If it separates that's not a problem. Just shake the jar before using or put into a blender for a few seconds. You can keep using the kefir you made to make new batches.

No, it's actually *not* more economical. If you buy grains, they're a one-time purchase, and you can make kefir literally forever. All you have to pay for is the cost of milk. However, if you make kefir from store-bought kefir, you will have to continually purchase kefir, and those costs will add up. Plus, kefir made from grains is significantly more healthy than store-bought kefir. But you do you...

Salutes from your Southern Neighbour from Tunisia what this lady did is not kefir at all.Here in Tunisia we do that we just leave the milk for two days in a dark place and in cupboard then we get what we call Rayeb which means coagulated Milk something between milk and yogurt but definitely not a yogurt neither Kefir .Kefir can not be done without these grains made if bacteria and yeast who are originated in The Caucasian region They are white grains and when put in milk they ferment the milk by eating lactose and other things leaving us probiotics and vitamins etc .My self living for more than 25 years in Turkey the country of yogurt and kefir traditions for millenia and we do our yogurt and kefir for years and years.So an advise do such healthy things in the proper way and search for specialized people not youtubers who have nothing to do with the subject and they talk about things with zero knowledge just to get some followers.As an Italian I am more than sure that you prefer to drink an espresso in a cup of ceramic white and shiny than in a plastic or carton Coca cola style starbucks cup with your name on it?!

You can also strain your kefir after first 24 hour resting period and than rest it again for another 24 hours it gives it twice the amount of probiotics and vitamins and a more sour taste

Fat is not the enemy depending on the type of fat. I use whole raw milk and grains but it's nice to have an alternative just in case something happens to my grains. I have been feeding and using my grains for at least 10 years.

Thanks a lot - and what a relief to find your video after hesitating to order the grains online!! - specially I am in keto and just want to give it a try to see if it will fit in my diet - so didn't want to commit into grains and strainers etc.. Just made it and its sitting on the kitchen bench now :) Bless you. love your spontaneity and lovely personality - well done for your boy drinking his milk :) love and respect from France Miriam

great video, I do the same thing with butter milk. I’m new to Kefir water, wonder if that would work, Yip, straining and messing with the grains is like raising children, sometimes you win, sometimes you lose LOL.

😂 Thankfully, unlike my grains, my children are all still alive. In theory, bacteria and yeast just need food and a warm place to procreate, so it should work for most cultured or fermented food!

750 ml milk : 47 ml kefir 1333 ml (a bag) milk : 80 ml kefir NB: warm up the milk a bit before adding in kefir and wrap the mixture with blanket to keep warm can speed up the fermentation process, but to turn it upside down in 12 hours, and in 24 hours, taste it to see if it is done, then transfer the product to fridge.

I make it the same way. After it's done, I harvest the top cream and use it for making other kefir youghurt and then the same crram harvssting and so on... Basically, I only buy once bio kefir and I keep making my new kefir with the help of the cream on top of this youghurt.

If you just go back and watch the video, you will notice that she poured off one cup of milk, that is 8 oz of milk poured into an 8 oz Mason jar. Therefore, to refill the gallon jug, you would pour 8 oz out of the quart of kefir.

My third batch, I used 2 cups from the previous batch and fermented for 22 hours . Great taste and very thick and creamy. by the way I hope you just ignore the few creeps that have made comments, they probably are not even pleased with the great sacrifice God made in giving his own son for their sin.
