Makes great biscuits or quick breads that call for milk or buttermilk in the recipe.

Thanks I do exactly like you and have been doing this for over 6 years. But my grains have never been "durable" or rubbery like it seems they should be and not stay above a spoon or even giggle like yours. If I stirred hard like that they would disappear. I still can make kefir by just adding milk to some of the milk with the busted up invisible grains. Thanks I would like some advice or hear from someone who has the same problem. Excellent video

I love homemade kefir blended with frozen fruit and a little stevia and honey to sweeten. It comes out like ice cream.

How much do you sell your grains for ? Thx

@milkweedfarms5481 2 ай бұрын

its easier to add milk to the kefir with grains and shake and strain.

I will also give that a try!

This is how we “rinse” grains - only with a little milk 🥛

What to do if the kefir turns out to be too sour

@milkweedfarms5481 2 ай бұрын

You can test it as you go. Usually 1 day will not make it too sour. I will say that over time, I have developed a taste for the more sour flavor!

Add more milk, shorten ferment. The fresh addition of milk will refresh and sweeten the sour kefir. Set on counter 12 hrs, then put in frig. I've also added MAPLE SYRUP at times.

Try doing a second ferment. After you strain out the grains, add a bit of fruit to the jar and let it sit on the counter again for a few hours, before putting it in the fridge. I’ve used different berries, orange or lemon slices , dates. You only need a couple pieces. The microbes eat on the sugar in the fruit and the flavour of the kefir mellows and gets a little fizzy. PIt also boosts the vitamin content even more. You can reuse the fruit or peel for several batches.
