    Great video, thank you. I keep my grains in a small butter muslin bag or a stainless steel tea ball hanging over the side of the jar. Makes it very easy to separate the grains when the kefir has fermented.

    1 : 1 ratio one tablespoon of Kefir grains to one cup of milk - 24 hours set up strain the Kefir and for the best do a double fermination add a orange peel and a vanilla bean allow to set up for one hr then put in the icebox until the next day ---

    I buy kefir (as starter!) at Costco every six months or so. I don't separate the grains from the kefir. I simply add 2T of kefir (milk + grains) to about 850 gr milk in a glass jar with a loose lid, then place the jar in a yogurt incubator for 5 hours. I pop the jar in the fridge and use it like yogurt, saving 2 T for the next batch. Strain for cheese. Use the whey from the cheese + more milk for ricotta. Use the whey from the ricotta for dogs, plants, rice, bread, and smoothies. In Mexico we buy milk in packs of 12 1-liter boxes for apprx $1/liter. I can't believe how much kefir and cheese and whey I can wring out of every box!

    Thank you soooo much. I have been attempting to make this cheese unsuccessfully for years!! I think you nailed it by placing the strained kefir in the fridge first, then days later begin the process. I can hardly wait to try. Thanks again, Backwoods Gardeners from N. Idaho, USA

    I feed my Kefir Grain Inulin as well in the milk to make them grow. The Kefir is extra extra thick.

    So I bought some kefir from a farmer's market. I took some of the kefir without the grain and put it into some raw cow's milk. That bacteria causes my milk to clabber into a solid. I keep doing this over and over again. At this point what product do I have, Is it a kefir clabber?

    I tried making my first kefir cheese a few days ago - it was edible but tasted quite strongly of cheap white wine - is this just the general flavour or can this be avoided or mellowed somehow?

    Try adding some dried garlic crumbs and a pinch of curry and turmeric, it’s awesome.
