KitchenCraft Home Made Kefir Making Kit in Gift Box, Glass/Cheese Cloth

Bought this kit for my daughter she has just received and the kefir granules are missing it does say in discription that it contains 2 but on jar itself it does not mention I bought one for myself as well that is due today so will see what that contains watch this space!!!!

Great but a little expensive

This kit contains no kefir culture or grains and no instructions. It is a jar, strainer and gauze, nothing more , so quite useless for making kefir.

It's so darn easy.Milk in the jar, culture stuff in.Few days later, a refreshing kefir drink.Nice.

Good price I do recommend

If you know the kefir or you made it in the past, don't buy this.I decided to make the kefir milk adding a teaspoon of kefir culture into 250 ml of milk into the fermenting jar. After 24h I used the strainer to filter out the kefir grains from the mixture. Firstly, the strainer is of a ridiculous dimension (way too small) and it takes ages to filter. Secondly, there is nothing really to filter. The kefir grains do not really develop. I prefer to use REAL kefir grains from the beginning. You will get a stronger kefir milk/yogurt with a stronger flavor. I decided to leave my kefir 48h which made it slightly stronger.This kefir making kit is a nice gift box for kids or people that never had or tasted kefir.

Just picked up this order - it arrived without the kefir cultures which are supposed to be part of the kit. Very disappointing as it's a gift and not even worth sending back, at my own expense.

Kefir as one of those trendy things like Kambucha tea that does the rounds before fading away again. If you've ever tried to make yogurt by warming some milk slightly before adding live yougurt and waiting for the fermentation to deliver, then this Kefir kit will hold no surprises. Basically its the same except you are adding a spoonful of the kefir culture and letting nature do the rest.You can make a bio yogurt type drink or if you have more time, make a cottage cheese type of...errr...cheese! I guess a kit like this would make nice small gift for someone who is into health and diet.
