Dehydrated Milk Kefir Grains — Organic Probiotic Culture

Dehydrated Milk Kefir Grains are living cultures made up of beneficial bacteria and yeasts, carefully dried to preserve their vitality. Once rehydrated in fresh milk, the grains become active again and begin fermenting the milk into traditional milk kefir — a naturally fermented drink enjoyed for generations.

Rooted in traditional kefir-making practices, these grains preserve a centuries-old microbial culture and allow you to create fresh, homemade kefir with ease.

What Is Milk Kefir?

Milk kefir is a thick, creamy, fermented milk drink with a naturally tangy flavour. Made at home, it is fresh, additive-free, and naturally rich in probiotics, making it a popular choice for those supporting gut health as part of a balanced lifestyle.

With proper care, your grains remain healthy and active for countless batches of delicious homemade

Directions

You need to activate only dried kefir grains. Fresh kefir grains are suitable for immediate use.

1 gram of dried milk kefir grains reconstitutes into 6 grams of fresh milk kefir grains.

1. Add milk kefir grains to 100ml milk.

2. Ferment 24 hrs (20-24°C). After 12 hrs stir gently.

3. After 24 hrs strain with a fine mesh sieve.

4. Repeat the first 3 steps 5-7 times. Start using 200ml of milk when grains show activity (souring, thickening). Once the milk ferments into kefir, the grains are ready to use.

Signs of active milk kefir grains:
  • The milk thickens
  • Slightly sour aroma and taste
  • CO₂ bubbles appear during fermentation (visible on the inner wall of the jar)
