Simply Life Probiotics Milk Kefir Grains,Turkish Strain, Pajaritos de Leche, Bulgaros, Homemade Kefir, Live Probiotics

It took me about a week and three batches to fully activate these grains, but resulting product was excellent! More effervescent and milder flavor than a batch I made from Lifeway commercial brand or MAHA (make America healthy again) freeze dried kefir starter culture I also bought for testing. Now I'm "developing" my own kefir culture by mixing three cultures and saving the grains. These Turkish kefir grains remind me of kumis, fermented mare's milk popular among turkish language group people of Russia and Central Asia. Overall a great product, but requires patience. First batch didn't ferment properly (pH 4.5 or lower) for over 3 days. Subsequent batches went way faster.

Arrived having a sour odor and have tried over and over again with quality organic milk and each time the kefir smells . I have had kefir grains for years and these are not plump and in fact yellowish on the edges and are a waste of money

they arrived fresh! I did not have any milk on hand so until I could get milk I put them in some whipping cream deluded with water just so they'd have something to eat... they did very well and multiplied quickly I now have them In milk and also in some goats milk they are doing absolutely fantastic!

I tried my darndest to revive and bulk up these grains. I did around 15-20 batches and wasted nearly a gallon and a half of milk. The grains were microscopically small and simply disintegrated with each batch. Each batch they would just get smaller and smaller eventually to the point where there was nothing to strain and they were all gone. Even using a super fine strainer didn't help. very frustrated and disappointed with these grains. Waste of money.

Kefir making machine!! I’ve been making daily for two weeks now. Outstanding productivity and taste! Creamy yogurt cheese buttermilk flavor with a slight effervescence. A teaspoon of kefir grains came in, they are multiplying, now I have about a 1/3 cup in two weeks. Almost like having a living tomogatchi pet. It’s fun exciting rewarding and good for you.

It seems like these grains are fine, a little sour but that’s to be expected after being shipped and out of milk for a few days. However I was pretty turned off after finding a black hair on the top of the grains. I’m sure they’re fine grains but i dunno just didn’t like that it came with a hair inside.

It took a few days for those grains to make kefir, but once it started, it’s been great, day after day. I even took it to Europe, it was totally fine there without a few days startup time. Those kefir grains are smaller than what I had a year ago and they taste a little different, almost a tiny bit gamy.Easy to use and hopefully as healthy as it claims to be. However, it tastes actually good enough to eat even without extra health claims.

1. It took around one month to get shipped.2. While in the picture shows one whole piece of kefir grains, mine was very tiny pieces which passed the mesh holes!3. They don't grow at all. After month they are still so tiny!4. And of course there's no return option.
