But even when doing everything right some issues may occur. Here you can find out more about how to overcome them when you care for water kefir grains.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>TIPS AND TRICKS FOR SUCCESSFUL ACTIVATION<\/h2>\n<p>Water kefir grains can be dehydrated or fresh. When they\u2019re dehydrated you need to activate them before use. The same with fresh ones when they\u2019re not being used for some time or when they\u2019re being transported.<\/p>\n<p>The activation process can be very quick or it can take up to two weeks. Here are some tips on how to make sure you\u2019re doing everything you can to make it successful.<\/p>\n<h4>Use quality ingredients and follow the steps<\/h4>\n<p>Your grains are dormant and you need to revive them. This means you need to boost their activity. For this reason we use quality ingredients that are a sufficient source of minerals which is very important in the first step. The other \u201cingredient\u201d is the temperature. It needs to be stable so the grains are not exposed to even more stress. Kefir grains consist of live microorganisms. And with live things it\u2019s hard to follow one strict formula, you need to have patience and time to let them activate at their own pace.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ingredients for activation:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>quality sugar (with high content of minerals)<\/li>\n<li>non-chlorinated water<\/li>\n<li>dehydrated water kefir grains<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure id=\"attachment_599458\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-599458\" style=\"width: 1080px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/kefirko.com\/wp-content\/webp-express\/webp-images\/uploads\/2021\/12\/zrnasuhakvmala.jpg.webp\" type=\"image\/webp\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-599458 webpexpress-processed\" src=\"https:\/\/kefirko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/zrnasuhakvmala.jpg\" alt=\"care for water kefir grains\" width=\"1080\" height=\"1080\"><\/picture><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-599458\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">These water kefir grains have been dried with slow dehydration below 38 \u00b0C.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h4>STEP BY STEP ACTIVATION<\/h4>\n<ol>\n<li>Pour 300 ml non-chlorinated water in a glass jar.<\/li>\n<li>Add 15 g of organic cane sugar and 15 g of Rapadura sugar.<\/li>\n<li>Stir until completely dissolved.<\/li>\n<li>Add kefir grains.<\/li>\n<li>Close the lid and leave to ferment for 3-4 days at room temperature (20-24\u00b0C)<\/li>\n<li>Strain the grains and discard the water.<\/li>\n<li>Rinse the grains in lukewarm water.<\/li>\n<li>Repeat the steps above 5-7 times, until there are signs of fermentation. But ferment for only 2 days.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>The quantities in this recipe are suitable for one bag of our dehydrated water kefir grains (5g). After activation, they are reconstituted to 30g fresh kefir grains.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Are kefir grains active enough to prepare kefir?<\/strong> There are few typical signs of active kefir grains:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Bubbles. Once the grains are active you will notice bubbles flying from the bottom when shaking the jar. Those bubbles are actually gas (CO2) which is a sign that fermentation is happening.<\/li>\n<li>Smell change.<\/li>\n<li>The water is less sweet.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure id=\"attachment_599456\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-599456\" style=\"width: 1080px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/kefirko.com\/wp-content\/webp-express\/webp-images\/uploads\/2021\/12\/vodna-zrna.jpg.webp\" type=\"image\/webp\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-599456 webpexpress-processed\" src=\"https:\/\/kefirko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/vodna-zrna.jpg\" alt=\"water kefir grains\" width=\"1080\" height=\"1080\"><\/picture><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-599456\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Dehydrated water kefir grains on the left. Rehydrated water kefir grains on the right.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>REVITALISATION OR HOW TO GET YOUR GRAINS BACK IN SHAPE<\/h2>\n<p>Sometimes for one or another reason, grains can become sluggish, too yeasty, tiny and brittle, or the white layer appears on top. Those are all the signs of imbalance. The reason can be an excess of minerals, uneven room temperature, over fermentation, season changes, excess of oxygen or poor quality of water and other ingredients.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What now?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Best and easiest way is to rest them in the fridge. First, we have to gently rinse the grains under lukewarm water, then put them in the jar and cover with slightly sweetened water. One tablespoon of sugar per 1 litre of water is more than enough. Leave to rest for 5-10 days. They should refresh and rebuild.<br \/>\nAfter a couple of days in the fridge, discard the resting solution and rinse the grains. Put them in a sugar-water solution. Use the same amounts of sugar as grains. Add ten to twenty times more water than sugar and grains. Leave to ferment for 48 hours. Discard the liquid.<br \/>\nNow water kefir grains should be fully recovered and ready to ferment again.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_165\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-165\" style=\"width: 1400px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/kefirko.com\/wp-content\/webp-express\/webp-images\/uploads\/2016\/05\/IMG_2826-e1463130722454.jpg.webp 1400w, https:\/\/kefirko.com\/wp-content\/webp-express\/webp-images\/uploads\/2016\/05\/IMG_2826-e1463130722454-155x116.jpg.webp 155w, https:\/\/kefirko.com\/wp-content\/webp-express\/webp-images\/uploads\/2016\/05\/IMG_2826-e1463130722454-1300x973.jpg.webp 1300w, https:\/\/kefirko.com\/wp-content\/webp-express\/webp-images\/uploads\/2016\/05\/IMG_2826-e1463130722454-400x299.jpg.webp 400w, https:\/\/kefirko.com\/wp-content\/webp-express\/webp-images\/uploads\/2016\/05\/IMG_2826-e1463130722454-1024x767.jpg.webp 1024w, https:\/\/kefirko.com\/wp-content\/webp-express\/webp-images\/uploads\/2016\/05\/IMG_2826-e1463130722454-240x180.jpg.webp 240w, https:\/\/kefirko.com\/wp-content\/webp-express\/webp-images\/uploads\/2016\/05\/IMG_2826-e1463130722454-768x575.jpg.webp 768w, https:\/\/kefirko.com\/wp-content\/webp-express\/webp-images\/uploads\/2016\/05\/IMG_2826-e1463130722454-500x375.jpg.webp 500w, https:\/\/kefirko.com\/wp-content\/webp-express\/webp-images\/uploads\/2016\/05\/IMG_2826-e1463130722454-1000x749.jpg.webp 1000w, https:\/\/kefirko.com\/wp-content\/webp-express\/webp-images\/uploads\/2016\/05\/IMG_2826-e1463130722454-300x225.jpg.webp 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\" type=\"image\/webp\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-165 size-full webpexpress-processed\" src=\"https:\/\/kefirko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/IMG_2826-e1463130722454.jpg\" alt=\"Kefir grains activated\" width=\"1400\" height=\"1048\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kefirko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/IMG_2826-e1463130722454.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/kefirko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/IMG_2826-e1463130722454-155x116.jpg 155w, https:\/\/kefirko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/IMG_2826-e1463130722454-1300x973.jpg 1300w, https:\/\/kefirko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/IMG_2826-e1463130722454-400x299.jpg 400w, https:\/\/kefirko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/IMG_2826-e1463130722454-1024x767.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/kefirko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/IMG_2826-e1463130722454-240x180.jpg 240w, https:\/\/kefirko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/IMG_2826-e1463130722454-768x575.jpg 768w, https:\/\/kefirko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/IMG_2826-e1463130722454-500x375.jpg 500w, https:\/\/kefirko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/IMG_2826-e1463130722454-1000x749.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/kefirko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/IMG_2826-e1463130722454-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\"><\/picture><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-165\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Revitalisation of mushy grains is still possible. Just make sure you react as soon as you notice it.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>BOOSTING THE GRAINS<\/h2>\n<p>Want to know how to encourage grains to grow more quickly or become more active? To increase growth and activity follow the tips below.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Smaller grains will multiply much faster than larger ones. This is due to a larger surface for nutrient uptake. Gently break large grains into smaller pieces.<\/li>\n<li>Add more minerals. Rapadura sugar or ginger pieces would work great. Grains prefer a wide range of nutrients. (a couple of weeks Rapadura, then a couple of weeks ginger or dried fruit).<\/li>\n<li>Higher room temperature (25-30 degrees Celsius) can also stimulate grain growth.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>From time to time, grains might have a lag phase in which they stop growing and multiplying. In this case even the tips above may not work. As long as fermentation happens normally (meaning, you get delicious kefir) do not panic, give them time.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_598642\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-598642\" style=\"width: 1080px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/kefirko.com\/wp-content\/webp-express\/webp-images\/uploads\/2021\/10\/IMG_4494kvadrmala.jpg.webp 1080w, https:\/\/kefirko.com\/wp-content\/webp-express\/webp-images\/uploads\/2021\/10\/IMG_4494kvadrmala-400x400.jpg.webp 400w, https:\/\/kefirko.com\/wp-content\/webp-express\/webp-images\/uploads\/2021\/10\/IMG_4494kvadrmala-1024x1024.jpg.webp 1024w, https:\/\/kefirko.com\/wp-content\/webp-express\/webp-images\/uploads\/2021\/10\/IMG_4494kvadrmala-768x768.jpg.webp 768w, https:\/\/kefirko.com\/wp-content\/webp-express\/webp-images\/uploads\/2021\/10\/IMG_4494kvadrmala-1000x1000.jpg.webp 1000w, https:\/\/kefirko.com\/wp-content\/webp-express\/webp-images\/uploads\/2021\/10\/IMG_4494kvadrmala-300x300.jpg.webp 300w, https:\/\/kefirko.com\/wp-content\/webp-express\/webp-images\/uploads\/2021\/10\/IMG_4494kvadrmala-150x150.jpg.webp 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" type=\"image\/webp\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-598642 webpexpress-processed\" src=\"https:\/\/kefirko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/IMG_4494kvadrmala.jpg\" alt=\"care for kefir grains\" width=\"1080\" height=\"1080\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kefirko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/IMG_4494kvadrmala.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/kefirko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/IMG_4494kvadrmala-400x400.jpg 400w, https:\/\/kefirko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/IMG_4494kvadrmala-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/kefirko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/IMG_4494kvadrmala-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/kefirko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/IMG_4494kvadrmala-1000x1000.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/kefirko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/IMG_4494kvadrmala-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/kefirko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/IMG_4494kvadrmala-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\"><\/picture><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-598642\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Use quality ingredients.
