Organic water kefir grains – Fresh/Live (4 tablespoons). Makes approximately 1 litre.
Our grains are fully active and will produce kefir water from the day they arrive. All live grains are harvested directly from our working batches. As such, active fresh grains require little time to acclimate to their new home. Follow the enclosed step-by-step instructions, and the grains should produce kefir water as soon as you have moved them into their new home. In addition, you will need to provide them with the nutrients and environment they need to thrive.
All our kefir grains (fresh & dehydrated) are shipped in zip-sealed, food grade bags which are then heat sealed. This avoids any possible leakage during transit. They are carefully packaged in a hard plastic case to protect them from any possible damage when shipped to you. You also receive our detailed step-by-step, easy to follow instructions on how to care for these amazing health-giving organisms.
How we Cultivate and Nourish our Grains
To ensure that our organic water kefir fresh grains contain as many strains of probiotic bacteria and beneficial yeast as possible, we cultivate our kefir using a wide variety of different organic sugars and trace minerals. We also procure kefir grains from other parts of the globe to ensure that the grains stay healthy. This provides our customers a product that offers the largest selection of different beneficial bacteria and yeast strains possible.
They are fed and nourished daily on sugars such as Organic Panela Sugar, Organic Raw Sugar, Organic Coconut Sugar and Organic Molasses. To ensure optimum diversity, these are varied in quantities and proportions as not to favour any one bacterial or yeast strain. Only quality filtered ionised water is used. We also add 72 trace minerals to feed the grains every 2nd – 3rd fermentation. We do not use any harsh chemicals in our environment and the grains have not come into contact with anything harmful.

After much water kefir reading, I found KefirCulture and purchased a Starter Pack of grains and Fermentation Starter/Booster Sugars+ Formula. So much info on the web! I was nervous about getting it wrong, but it’s easy as pie, esp. with the instructional videos and pdf detailed instructions provided. The live grains arrived fast and in very secure packaging.
What a hoot I’ve been having ever since!! The grains grow quickly – both in size and number, sometimes by 25% in weight from one brew to the next.
Only 3 weeks now since I began. I love the 1st fermentation but save some for a 2nd with fresh mulberries and Atherton raspberries (taking advantage of the current season) – makes a lovely deep red brew. Depending on whether I do the 2nd on the benchtop or in the fridge, the taste changes. One lot stayed out for several days and tasted like a combo of fruity, very dry ginger ale and weak beer – sounds odd but it’s seriously refreshing! Feeling much more adventurous now, will try different flavourings, also some longer ferments with maple syrup. Just starting to have enough grains to brew multiple lots simultaneously.
I have an incurable degenerative neurological illness. Since drinking kefir (starting with only a little daily & easing the amount up gradually), one chronic digestive symptom has completely reversed. Even more exciting, my energy levels are going through the roof!! Less important, though still worth mentioning – my nails have noticeably strengthened. Nothing else in my life has altered, thus I can’t imagine what could be causing this other than my new kefir habit.
HIGHLY recommend this ethical store & its owner, Uta, who is Passion Personified when it comes to kefir!

Thanks Kefir Culture. I bought these grains over a year ago and they have provided so many sustainable, gut healthy fizzy drinks for me and my family. They were very well packaged and, being fresh, kicked off immediately
Amanda (verified owner) –
Kefir grains arrived promptly in perfect condition. Instructions were easy to follow and our first attempt at a second ferment turned out perfectly with some lovely fizz. We are excited to be reaping the benefits of the probiotics.
