I’m loving my first foray into kefir, it’s delicious and can’t wait for my little 10 grams of grains to multiply so I can make more. Thanks for a great video in the yoghurt which was my initial wish in making kefir. ❤

Coffee filter would be used to make sauerkraut. You put a lid to make kefir.

Please don't throw your whey down the drain, the least you can do is feed it to your pets or dump it into a flower pot. 😢

Im going to pour my way over my dogs food and see if he likes it.

That’s considered over fermented Kefir.

Kefir also contains amounts of alcohol that could reach 2% which is not to be underestimated.

Where can I buy Kefir grains like yours? Website link if possible. Thank You.

I don't use a strainer, and I use the kefir grains in a covered bowl rather than a jar. I remove kefir grains by first stirring the kefir with a whisk so that it's uniform, then reaching in with my hand, finding the grains, taking them out while shaking excess kefir off my hand back into the bowl, then setting the grains on the counter to be placed in the next batch of milk. The kefir itself can be poured from the bowl into a jar to be refrigerated or used immediately, or set on the counter for a further, anaerobic ripening fermentation. As whey separates during that ripening, I remove it from the jar by use of a turkey baster. With the bulb compressed, slide the baster down the side of the jar, then allow the bulb to open and suck out the whey.

I thought that you could not let kefir touch metal?

6:20 1/4 cup grains, 2.5 cup milk

this is exactly how i like it too. thanks for the video.

Keh-fear is the correct pronounciation, as used for hundreds of years by not “some people” but all the people down the ages - until now.

Great information, thanks!

Nice method but please don't pour out the whey. So many uses for that liquid gold. I've made a simple soda by just mixing it with juice but there other great uses for it too. Whey, the liquid that separates from kefir during the fermentation process, has several good uses: 1. **Smoothies:** Incorporate whey into your smoothies for added probiotics and a tangy flavor. 2. **Fermenting:** Use whey as a starter culture for fermenting other foods like vegetables, sauerkraut, or pickles. 3. **Baking:** Substitute whey for buttermilk or yogurt in baking recipes for a tangy flavor and added moisture. 4. **Marinades:** Whey can be used in marinades for meats or tofu to tenderize and add flavor. 5. **Soup and Broth:** Add whey to soups or broths to enhance their nutritional value and flavor. 6. **Salad Dressings:** Mix whey with herbs and olive oil to create a kefir-based salad dressing. 7. **Fermented Beverages:** Use whey as a starter culture for making other fermented drinks, like lacto-fermented lemonade. 8. **Nutrient Boost:** Dilute whey with water and use it to water your plants for an added nutrient boost. 9. **Skin Care:** Some people use whey as a natural skin toner or facial cleanser due to its acidity and probiotic properties. 10. **Animal Feed:** If you have animals, such as chickens or pets, you can add small amounts of whey to their diet for a nutritional boost. Remember to store whey in the refrigerator and use it within a reasonable time to maintain its freshness and benefits.

New subscribed, thank you for sharing this ❤. How long can I keep the yogurt in the fridge please? 😊

Thanks I will try this method

Thank you for explaining this so clearly and specifically
