Organic milk kefir grains – Fresh/Live (1 teaspoon). Makes approximately 1 litre.
Our grains are fully active and will produce milk kefir from the day they arrive. All live grains, are harvested directly from our working batch just before posting and as such active, fresh grains require little time to acclimate to their new home. When you follow the enclosed step-by-step instructions, the grains should produce milk kefir as soon as you have moved them into their new home. They are provided with the nutrients and environment they need to thrive.
All our milk kefir fresh grains are shipped in zip-sealed, food grade bags which are then heat sealed to avoid any possible leakage during transit. We then carefully package them in a hard plastic case to protect them from any possible damage such as being squashed during shipping. You also receive our detailed step-by-step, easy to follow instructions on how to care for these amazing health-giving organisms.
What are the constituents of our milk kefir?
Our milk kefir grains contain a variety of constituents that provide numerous health benefits, including:
- Probiotics: a rich source of probiotics, which are beneficial bacteria that live in your gut and help support a healthy digestive system. Milk kefir can contain up to 50 different strains of probiotics, including Lactobacillus, Streptococcus, and Bifidobacterium.
- Proteins: a variety of proteins, including casein and whey. These proteins are important for muscle growth and repair, and they also help keep you feeling full and satisfied.
- Carbohydrates: in the form of lactose, which is partially fermented during the fermentation process. This makes milk kefir a good option for those who are lactose intolerant, as the lactose is partially broken down.
- Vitamins and minerals: including calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, and vitamin B12. These nutrients are important for bone health, nerve function, and energy production.
- Enzymes: including lactase, which helps break down lactose in the milk. This makes milk kefir easier to digest for those who are lactose intolerant.

Delighted to find the expertise, generous advice and overall help I encountered, both online and in person, at KefirCulture. Uta is so knowledgeable in all areas of fermentation, and my new journey owes many thanks to her patience and understanding.

A couple of weeks ago I purchased kefir grains from Uta at Kefirculture.com for myself and 3 friends.
All is going well.
A couple of the girls have been quite adventurous and had good results.
My grains are doing fine and I am enjoying kefir milk daily.
And the cloth and fastener are a great bonus.

My shipment of milk kefir grains got lost in transit and I never received them. I contacted Uta (the business owner) who offered to replace them for free, and she added more for good measure plus a free strainer. The icing on the cake was the two tasting pouches, one containing a first fermentation milk kefir, the second pouch containing a second fermentation kefir (2-days fermentation) so we could see which we prefer (the 2-days fermentation). The result was delicious and healthy kefir that never runs out. Thanks, Uta!

What powerful kefir grains! Batches didn’t take as long as I’d expected for a very strong result. I can’t emphasise enough the benefit to my health either, on so many levels.
Uta really knows her stuff too and was extremely helpful. Very fortunate to have access to such a great local supplier.
Uta (store manager) –
Thanks for leaving us a review and letting others know how it is benefiting you health, Clint.
I’m always keen for customers to make an informed purchase to get them on the best path to fermenting their cultures,
so they get the best results even if their are new to fermenting.
We are here if you need additional support or guidance.
