Bottle brush!

I live in Australia and it is humid year round. It’s winter now, but still kefir ferments so rapidly. I have been putting it in refrigerator at night to slow it down. Grains stay small. Should I put it in like an esky to keep more even temp?

Replying to "When you 2nd ferment…"

Should the easy kefir packet stay in the fridge until I am ready to use/

We’ll post the link in this Sunday’s email

Yes, always store the culture packets in the fridge.

I am new to making kefir and found a box of the Easy Kefir grains in my fridge, purchased in 2018. Worked great and love it!

I love the zing in kefir.

I have not tried the easy kefir, yet since I have too much kefir I started freeze drying it in small cubes. will it lose the good bacteria/yeast from the freezin? I also freeze dried the grains and the revive after several feedings.

How do you fell about the small silicone airlock fermenting lids VS the older style ones with the little airlock mechanism that sits on top of the lid?

Do you get the same bacteria in kefir soda when you use whey to ferment as you do when you use the kefir soda packets?

I just bought silicone lids and I think they are great! However, Donna will know best.

My purple cabbage sauerkraut is about 3 yrs old in the fridge. It still looks clean ,doesn’t have any funny stuff. Do you think it’s safe to consume it?
