1g (DEHYDRATED)
Reusable live culture for milk kefir that needs to be activated.



13.90 

Dehydrated milk kefir grains are living cultures composed of beneficial bacteria and yeasts, carefully dried to preserve their vitality. When rehydrated in fresh milk, they become active again and begin fermenting the milk into milk kefir — a naturally fermented, probiotic-rich drink enjoyed for centuries.

MILK KEFIR GRAINS

Our organic milk kefir grains turn milk into a delicious, thick homemade kefir, naturally rich in probiotics.
Rooted in traditional kefir-making practices, they preserve a centuries-old microbial culture of beneficial bacteria and yeasts.

BENEFITS OF KEFIR MAKING

Homemade milk kefir has a thick, creamy texture and naturally delicious taste. It supports gut health and overall well-being. By making kefir at home, you get fresh, natural probiotics without any additives. It is economical, providing the most effective way to enjoy fresh kefir again and again.

SAFETY AND CERTIFICATION

BIO certified – 100% organic, produced according to standards. Produced in a controlled environment and tested to ensure it is free from pathogens

REUSABLE AND EVERGROWING

With proper care, your grains remain healthy and active for countless batches of delicious homemade kefir.

STORAGE AND TRANSPORT

Dehydrated milk kefir grains are easy to store and less sensitive to temperature changes than fresh kefir.
Perfect for longer shipping or keeping as a backup culture, ensuring your kefir grains stay healthy until you’re ready to use them.

How to activate dried milk kefir grains?

You need to activate only dried kefir grains. Fresh kefir grains are suitable for immediate use.

1 gram of dried milk kefir grains reconstitutes into 6 grams of fresh milk kefir grains.

1.

Add milk kefir grains to 100ml milk.

2.

Ferment 24 hrs (20-24°C). After 12 hrs stir gently.

3.

After 24 hrs strain with fine mesh sieve.

4.

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.

Signs of active milk kefir grains:

  • The milk thickens
  • Slightly sour aroma and taste
  • CO₂ bubbles appear during fermentation (visible on the inner wall of the jar)

Milk Kefir Recipe

1. 6 g activated milk kefir grains,
2. 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.

    The activation of dried Kefir grains went pretty well. And, the fermentation went pretty successfully. I enjoyed the homemade Kefir milk.

    Happy it’s possible to get grains home in dried form. Have not jet started the process of activation, but I’m sure it will work great.

    Unfortunately, it overfermented before the 24hr mark was reached during activation. For me, a beginner, it was then a bit hard to separate the curds from the small kefir grains that were starting to form. Still positive about the product though.

      Dear Kevin, we can not precisely know, how much time grains need for activation or to make kefir it depends on so many factors – temperature, ingredients…
      Have you tried our Kefir fermentor? We deisgned it specifically for this problem – the most difficult thing about making kefir at home – comes from separating grains from thick kefir – but kefir fermentor – along with specifically designed strainer lid With integrated sieve designed for different thickness of kefir and the size of grains and scraper for sešaratong grains from kefir: https://kefirko.com/product/kefir-fermenter/
