Hi Tinypumpkin! i am actually asking how should i determine my kefir has contaminated?

Hello Missy

First of all you need to determine the length of time that you left the culture to brew. The longer the fermentation the thicker the curd and therefore the harder to strain. If you prefer this texture, meaning it will be more sourish as well, then I suggest you use a strainer with slightly bigger holes.

Another reason could be the milk that you used. I noticed that Farmhouse gave me thicker curds due to the higher fat content. Or the ratio of milk to grains is out; less milk to more grains. The degree of thickness does not mean that your kefir is contaminated. If you see green coloured whey instead of yellowish and clear whey then that could be a sign of contamination. But then again contaminated grains have been known to be brought back to life after several treatments of fresh milk; well, like I said before, kefir grains are very forgiving

If the milk did not ferment and was still watery then your grains are not performing. You are actually doing fine; all you need to do now is to determine what degree of sourness and texture you prefer so that you could time your culture and harvest the good and nice tasting kefir each day.

Feel free to drop by anytime should you have any concerns and I will try my best to address them.

Happy kefiring!

Thank you so much for your order.

Happy kefiring!

hi tiny,

received my Kefir grains today by 12 noon Tuesday 20 Nov (ordered in the morning of Monday 19 Nov) - very efficient thank you.
they are now sitting in a jar of milk (1 glass - I'm using FarmFresh - from Johor) at home happily fermenting

thanks again!

Julian

Good...good; you could split up into 2 jars once the grains have settled down.

Thanks for the feedback.

Hi aprolsmatic

Your babies are on their way to you.

Thank you and happy kefiring.

TinyPumpkin, I'm interested to buy also. Any changes in price?

Hello

Thank you for your interest.

No change in price, still going cheap. Just for sharing.

After 1 month receiving the kefir from you, my kefir is growing well into 3 containers!

Many Many Thanks.

The pleasure's mine

Happy kefiring!

Do you have water kefir grains for sale?

Sorry sweety, don't have water kefir grains. But I was told that milk kefir grains could be used to culture water kefir. However they will stop growing, so only use excess grains.

Hi Tiny Pumpkin,

I am new to milk kefir, so hope you don't mind my long list of silly questions. I am from Penang as well and would like to consider buying the grains from you.

1. For 2 table spoon of kefir grain (RM 30), how long will it last.
One table spoon for one cup of milk = one day consumption?

2. The supply you are giving is just the grain only right? And we have to do our own culturing by mixing it with milk?

3. From one or 2 table spoon, can we multiply it? How much can we multiply to?


As I am from Penang, will it be possible for me to collect from you and pay to you directly?

Hello cuckoo bird

Thank you for your interest.

1. The grains will last forever if you take care of them and feed them well.

2. Yes I supply only the grains. You have to culture the kefir yourself using the grains and milk.

3. The grains will grow and multiply but the speed will depend on how often you feed them and take care not to kill them.

Lastly, for privacy reasons I do not conduct COD. I am sharing these grains only when I have excess and my charges are being kept as low as possible.

Should you need further information on caring and culturing of the grains do let me know and I'll be most happy to guide you along even if you sourced the grains elsewhere.

Regards
tiny
