I am lactose intolerant and I am trying to make kefir for the first time. I ordered the dehydrated kefir grains and put them in a quart jar with 1 can thai brand coconut milk. After watching your video now i can safely make it with organic milk :) and not have to worry of the consequences that milk does to me. I chose coconut milk because i didnt know if I would have problems drinking it with organic milk. Thankyou so much for taking the time and sharing this video!

I make a quart of kefir every two days with whichever milk I have available, raw, organic pasteurized or just pasteurized. The best tasting, by far kefir is made with the raw milk, it is smooth, tangy and goes down easily. The pasteurized milks are more sour tasting even though they are fermented the same amount of time as the raw milk. It is still tasty from both raw and pasteurized sources and so, so good for you. Have it in a smoothie.

been making this for the last 3 months. im a bodybuilder and have had problems with high protein diets and constipation. By all accounts this has helped my constipation.

I just bought some Organic Pastures RAW milk with Kefir. Already made and it's with RAW milk! Yippie!!

I'm drinking a real kefir smoothie made with homemade coconut butter, greens, soaked chia and fruit - so yum!  Great info!!

I'm going to make this today, this probiotic thing seems to be the latest health and fitness craze trend going on. I've yet to hop on the band wagon, but i think this is really going to put the icing on the cake with my already very healthy diet, thanks a lot Doc !!

You can get the grains from someone that makes kefir, as they usually will grow a surplus. I got my starter from kefirlady on the web. After you add the milk it sits at room temperature for 24 hours. Then after you strain out the grains, you can refrigerate it or let sit out for a couple of more days.

Thanks for the comment. I'm not sure how long the kefir will last in the fridge but I have had two-week-old kefir and it tasted great.

I have started making Kefir, I have no trouble using just plain vitamin D milk. My grains double every two days. I had a colon surgery and the inflammation has been less severe since I started on Kefir after more than 2 1/2 years of daily, hourly severe pain where I could not even sit. I am still facing another surgery but the Kefir has given me hope to heal.

I love that u know wut ur talkn about & dont say some untrue crap etc.. Like almost all other vids do..

[NaturalFoodsDiet]

Yes, vanilla tastes good, thanks for the suggestion. I'll try it in my kefir.

Do you second ferment? I’ve heard it increases the nutrition. We like Kefir smoothies with frozen banana and frozen blueberries and a small amount of real maple syrup.

[NaturalFoodsDiet]

Use a strainer and transfer the kefir grains to new milk. You transfer them every day. If you need to take a break, put them in the refrigerator and they will keep for several weeks (covered in a small amount of milk). It might take a few days of new milk to get them humming again after being dormant.

Interesting.... Thanks for posting this. I'm going to try to make this. My mother has been trying to get me to do it for years.

[louisegarnett]

Hi I got my kefir grains and with out me knowing my husband brought some kefir grains the question I have can I put them in the same jar together as I don’t want 2 jars on my side any advice would be great thanks in advance

[nniicc]

A friend just happened to offer me a bottle full of kefir grains, thanks to your recipe i am starting today my first kefir production, thanks doctor Gee
After 24h fermentation and being strained, could you tell me how long does a fresh batch of kefir lasts in the refrigerator?
Keep us informed with your great work,

[NaturalFoodsDiet]

Kefir smoothies are wonderful, just what your body needs.

[bcful]

Thank you so much, Dictor. Can you please tell me how i can get the kefir grains?

[NaturalFoodsDiet]

Yes, I have a video on kombucha tea, you should check it out. Kefir is similar to kombucha but uses dairy to ferment instead of tea and sugar.
