Dehydrated milk kefir grains from organic production.
Activation:
Add milk kefir grains to 100ml milk.
Ferment 24 hrs (20-24°C). After 12 hrs stir gently.
After 24 hrs strain with fine mesh sieve and wash the grains with lukewarm water.
Repeat the first 3 steps 5-7 times. Start using 200ml of milk when grains show activity (souring, thickening).
Once the milk ferments into kefir, the grains are ready to use.
Milk Kefir Recipe:
Activated milk kefir grains,
600ml milk
Add milk kefir grains to milk and cover. Ferment for 24 hrs (20-24°C). Strain the kefir and use the grains for the next batch. Milk kefir is ready to be consumed or to second ferment. *Dehydrated milk kefir grains can be smaller in size. It’s better to use a finer mesh for straining in the first few weeks, until the grains grow.

After opening should be used right away.
