Kefir is a fermented milk drink that is made with kefir grains. These grains are a type of yeast that forms a symbiotic relationship with lactic acid bacteria. The finished product is a tart and slightly fizzy beverage that is rich in probiotics. Many people report that kefir causes them to experience gas and bloating. This is most likely due to the fact that kefir is a fermented food. Fermented foods contain high levels of bacteria, which can sometimes lead to digestive issues. If you find that kefir gives you gas
Kefir is a fermented milk drink that is made by adding kefir grains to milk. The kefir grains are a symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast that consume the lactose in milk and produce lactic acid and carbon dioxide. This fermentation process gives kefir its tart, slightly effervescent taste. Kefir can be made with cow's milk, goat's milk, or sheep's milk, and is a good source of protein, calcium, and probiotics. Kefir will last in the fridge for about 2 weeks. After that,
Kefir is a fermented milk drink that is rich in probiotics, which are beneficial for gut health. The recommended amount to drink varies depending on the source, but generally, it is recommended to drink 1-2 cups per day.
Kefir is a fermented milk drink that is packed with probiotics, which are beneficial for gut health. Drinking kefir on a daily basis can help improve digestion, boost immunity, and promote a healthy gut flora. Kefir is also a good source of calcium, phosphorus, and vitamin B12.

I should say right away that I have experience making water kefir. I've been experimenting with a ton of different sugars, water types, minerals, fruits, etc. during my five years of intermittent homebrewing. I have also read almost all of the available materials on the subject. I'm a huge fan of water kefir, what can I say!I've previously bought water kefir grains from a variety of suppliers, but Florida Sun Kefir's grains have completely blown me away. They have already exceeded every other batch of water kefir grains I've bought in the past, and I've only had them for a little more than a week (from other sellers). These qualities make them superior:1. The majority of kefir grains come in a "distressed state," and you must nurture them for a few weeks before they can begin producing high-quality kefir and even longer before they can begin multiplying. The day after I received them, these chubby babies began to bubble and proliferate! They had nearly quadrupled in size in just 6 days, I'm not kidding. I've been giving out extra kefir grains to neighbors and even feeding them to my dog because I have so many of them (yes its safe to do that and its good for your four-legged friends too).2. Shipping was incredibly quick! Normally, I don't care too much about fast shipping, but I was shocked by how quickly these items arrived when it came to perishable, living things (ordered on a Friday and received on Monday). These grains arrived in such good condition and started working straight away, which is presumably due in large part to the short travel period.3. The vendor is a master at packing, which is probably another factor in why these grains performed so well right away after arriving! Okay, I'll now criticize the dumb reviews that rail against the "balloon" the grains arrived in. The only way I can explain it is that it appears more like a black sausage casing closed up at both ends rather than a balloon like the kind you blow up at gatherings. I'm unable to confirm the "balloon's" composition, but I can confirm that it is odorless and appears to be meant for food storage. When you open the "balloon," there is a scent, but it is the smell of the grains. It is normal for them to have gotten a touch musty within the sealed container after the lengthy journey. After you've made your first batch of water kefir, the scent disappears. Second, for those of you whining about said balloon, it is an absolutely BRILLIANT and ingenious concept for moving grains, which is why: The grains of water kefir emit carbon dioxide. You run the risk of the container exploding if you store them in a sealed container without occasionally opening it to release the pressure of the accumulating carbon dioxide. In fact, I experienced this firsthand when I tried to move some grains by myself from Florida to Texas (I had taken some of my dad's grains while I was visiting him and placed them in a jar in my checked luggage). Big error! The jar top was off when I arrived in Texas, and my grains were wearing my clothes. My point is that since balloons are STRETCHY, they can FLEXIFY in response to the gas the grains are releasing. Kids should take away from this that the "balloon" your grains arrive in prevents them from exploding and destroying the box they were arrived in. So quit complaining about the water kefir balloon package and stop giving bad reviews for this merchant! The merchant then places the balloon in a plastic food storage container and then wraps the container in two large zip-top baggies, further assuring that no explosion occurs. This protects the grains from damage during transit in addition to the balloon. Bravo, Florida Sun Keir, for your brilliant water kefir container!These grains really yield wonderful kefir, as I can attest having already consumed two batches made from them.Now, if you're tempted to purchase dehydrated grains from Cultures for Health rather than this seller because this product is not Prime eligible, let me spare you the hassle by telling you DON'T! I actually did purchase these grains from cultures for health before, and I will never, ever buy dehaydrated grains again. Let me just say that I should have listened to the warnings provided by individuals on the internet about the terrible performance and unavoidable demise of water kefir grains that have previously been dehydrated rather than creating an entire novel about it. The Cultures for Health grains steadily dissolved away despite my best efforts to take care of them. When I bought these grains, I stopped doubting my kefir abilities because I understood I wasn't the issue. Purchase your grains from Florida Sun as a favor to yourself. Because a product must be held at Amazon and transported by Amazon in order for a seller to make it Prime eligible, they are unable to sell these grains as Prime. Since it is obviously impossible to keep live water kefir grains in an Amazon warehouse, this merchant provided free FAST shipping as a substitute. And by faster, I mean delivery through Prime. Although Cultures for Health must dry their grains before selling them on Amazon, doing so extends the grains' shelf life. Dehydrated water kefir grains are terrible, as this water kefir nerd will have you know.I will concur with one criticism expressed in a review: The content in this seller's PDF on water kefir is organized poorly and has godawful spelling and language. They excel at producing kefir grains but struggle to sell books. But despite that, you should still buy the grains because they are fantastic. The Cultures for Health website is a fantastic source for information about making water kefir, including recommendations for what kinds of sugar and water to use as well as recipe ideas. Simply avoid purchasing their dehydrated grains or you'll regret it.Maggie, Nick's spouse

I've never attempted to make any kind of kefir before. I had no idea there were two different varieties of milk kefir: the sort with "grains" (SCOBYs) that keep growing and need regular upkeep, and the variety that is freeze-dried powder and is effectively a one-time use. This one is powdered, and you can use it to make multiple batches if you like by taking a few spoonfuls, mixing them with new milk, and fermenting the mixture before adding any flavour. Even though I am aware that yogurt is manufactured with bacteria, I have always loved it and have eaten it without hesitation. However, it took me some time to get beyond the "ick factor" associated with milk kefir before I could push myself to try it. It is actually pretty tasty, especially when combined with vanilla essence, ground cinnamon, and stevia powder as a sweetener. Even though I've only been able to get through three batches of one packet so far, I now look forward to drinking a big cup of milk kefir every day. Even with only a little stevia added, it tastes wonderful.

I want to start by mentioning that before purchasing and using these specific freeze-dried cultures, I read all of the reviews. I've previously produced kefir using live cultures, but I'd never attempted freeze-drying it. I've been logging everything so that I can share, and I'm still using the cultures from the first packet.The most crucial lesson I learned from the packets' instructions was to use the freshest, full-fat milk you can get that is free of preservatives. (Please take 2 minutes to read the instructions.) It doesn't surprise me that a large portion of your kefir failed because you used skim milk, 1%, 2%, or aged milk. Kefir is a living thing that requires food. Your attempt to make kefir is already doomed the moment you use processed milk of any kind.Using non-metal containers and tools to scald and stir your milk (pasteurizing) to destroy any germs or organisms that it may have picked up during the production process is the second-most crucial step. This connotes glass to me. My entire milk is purchased in glass bottles. Plastic can harbor germs and release toxins into the food, which is why I don't like it. This entails nice, non-metal spoons.The third most crucial factor is to think about your heat source. Because I utilize a decent heat source, don't peek at it during the culturing phase, and use high-quality, full-fat milk, my kefir has been turning out robust and hard. It's not necessary to use a yogurt maker as the heat source. After baking, it can be cultured in a cooling oven, a toaster oven (older versions) set at 80°F to 90°F, or with a heating pad initially set at high (my heating pad shuts off after 2 hours), then lowering the temperature to medium, then low.I've used the first packet of the five packet package on my fourth culture. It takes 5 gallons of whole milk to culture one packet. The following I wish to attempt using goat milk and sheep milk.The glass bowl in the first image is the one I use to warm the milk and culture my kefir. I heat mine to the required 190°F (boiling point), leave it there for 10 minutes, and then let it cool to 110°F. While it cools, I do stir it with a ceramic spoon, remove the skin, and serve Miss Pepper the skin.The second image shows my electric heating pad-based culture setup. I cover the bowl with a plate and then add a doubled towel on top of that to keep the heat in. This is my winter arrangement because our kitchen gets a little chilly when I'm not baking or cooking.The ideal kefir may be seen in the final image.Have inquiries? Before asking me, please read the instructions. I'm grateful.

I've ordered kiefer grains before, but the finished product has never turned out as smooth as this. I was ready for them to show up with whole milk and some background information. What was always strained off was like cottage cheese and lacked pearled grains. Although the forums predicted a mild yeasty fragrance, the liquid was never thick enough to pour like yoghurt. I only used around 2 c of whole milk because the sample size was so little. I was able to use 1/4 cup of these fake grains to 4 cups of whole milk over a period of days. I chose an 18–24 hour culture period on my counter, away from direct sunshine. Cottage cheese vs grain that resembles pearlized cauliflower is always the same result. Forums advised leaving it alone so they would eventually show up. It has been a few months since the fake grains have been given regular attention, plenty of milk, and no peat-treated grains.I don't believe there was ever anything wrong with the delivery because I never noticed pearled grains. I was curious to see if this product would affect the result, and it definitely does!This product makes a cohesive, thicker, pourable liquid that is a close "relative" to yoghurt, much like home-cultured yoghurt. Good flavor; somewhat reminiscent of buttermilk. To slightly sweeten it, I add just under a tablespoon of pure maple syrup. It fits me just right. I really enjoy kiefer in my smoothies.I can get quite a bit from one packet of freeze dried grains because I can culture more kiefer from a 1/4 cup of this end product.Until I decide to locate a nearby somebody who has pearled grains they'd like to share or sell, I'll just go with it.A beautiful, healthy food is kiefer. I hope a lot more people come to understand its true advantages and incorporate it regularly into their diets. I've struggled with low energy for the previous eight years or so, both mentally and physically, so I'm pleasantly pleased and grateful at how much better I feel and how healthy I've been. Perhaps it wouldn't work for everyone, but I am grateful for it because it is helping me and I feel like I need it every day. I won't take a drug to treat a bad mindset. Take kiefer, please!

A few weeks later, an update: The tibicos grains had doubled. They enjoy the sugar water with a split date added. Although the finished water kefir is inconsistent, with some batches being more carbonated than others, it has always been preferable to tolerable so far. We are in Florida, where mold is endemic, and there is none. I made a batch and added mango juice for secondary fermentation; it was amazing.First impression: I gave them one round of sugar water to rehydrate them and another round to attempt to persuade them to drink something effervescent. After two days in the pitcher, it was sealed with some flavorings and additional sugar for one day, but there hasn't been any fizz yet. I'll experiment with the timing to see what occurs. I'm quite pleased with my purchase because it was a small risk to take.
There is no one definitive answer to this question. Some people find that kefir helps to alleviate their acid reflux symptoms, while others find that it makes them worse. It is thought that the probiotics in kefir may help to balance the digestive system, which can in turn help to reduce acid reflux. However, as with any food, it is important to listen to your body and see how it reacts to kefir. If you find that it aggravates your acid reflux, it is best to avoid it.
