Can I buy some of your grains
@@lindacheney2764 sure. I've never shipped them but since it's cool out should be no problem
Clear soft plastic contains bisphenol A a very nasty chemical Do no drink anything from it
Living alone, I don't can a lot at one time ,so there is always empty space in pot. I have been canning my water when I do can so I have quite a supply of water canned . 😊I am glad I took up this habit. Thanks for sharing this with others, too. 🎉
@@renebrown995 it is great to have on the shelf! Good for you!
I have no ability nor space to have water canned. What I do have is Shungite. I bought it from Russia years ago, after learning, water, once it runs over Shungite, purifies it. I use tap water in a Coleman water container, I put my Shungite gravel in a gause cloth, tie it at the top then fill about 2 litres into the pot. As the Coleman has a bottom outlet, I just leave the water overnight, take out the needed amount of water as needed, and use it. It tastes wonderful. Soldiers in wars, years ago had Shungite given them in their soldiers pack, to run water over, and they had pure water. God blessed me with this info, and I gladly share it.
@@joannebeerens6206 that is awesome! So many don't have water available if their faucets are turned off so this is an option for them. I believe that we should have multiple means of storing and filtering water
I bet those are going to be good. Your brine formula sounds like the right proportions for pickling. I might try doing some of these as well.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I'm sorry but how long do they last in fridge?
@@mewmew1640 they fade in color but I have used them for a year after I made them
My new kefir grains are reallly small... will they grow over time. I mean get bigger?
Yes! Mine have grown as they are fed and also multiied!
I like it better when it begins to separate... more flavor and a little thicker. Also a good shake will take care of it. My favorite is second ferment peach 🍑 😍 kefir... mmmm mmm good.
Me too! I love the tartness although it is an acquired taste for some.
I had good results with Meyenberg goat milkfrom Walmart for several months, but recently, the same product didn't produce kefir. The milk would not ferment. Cow milk works. Not sure if it's a bad batch of goat milk or if they started adding antibiotics?
That's a thought. They may have added antibiotics. I have not tried goat milk
Great easy lesson, thanks and all the best from Scotland.
Thanks for commenting! Glad you joined from Scotland!
Thank you for your video. I do have a suggestion. Perhaps a different camera angle because we couldn't see how you were slicing the onions nor could we see how much water you used to cover the onions. We are seeing your hands and arms, but not seeing the food you are working with. Also, I don't can, so I'm not sure what you mean by "sanitizing" the jars. Not all viewers have the same level of knowledge, so I don't think you can add too much detail.
Thanks so much for the comments. I will take all of that into consideration in my future videos. Sanitizing the jars can be done by boiling them or pouring scalding water over them.
😂
Hope you try it!
I also learnt that fermenting kefir on counter top minimum must be 24 10:07 hrs Isit true? Thanks again.
@@ViennaNSLim yes but the time depends upon the amount of kefir grains in your jar
Thanks a lot for today’s tutorial .
Instead of putting a lid on the jar can I use a cheese cloth n cover it? I learnt that it needs to breath n cannot tighten the lid Isit correct? I love kefir
@@ViennaNSLim yes. I open mine daily so I give it some air that way but you sure can!
Thank you for kind advice.
Can I keep kefir grains in the freezer n how long can it be there? Thank you very much
@@ViennaNSLim I have heard that you can. I have never done that. I put mine to sleep in the refrigerator. The longest has been 5 weeks.
@@ViennaNSLim I keep mine in the refrigerator when I want them to go to sleep. I have kept them in there for 5 weeks
Oh ok I shall keep some in the fridge to try out. But for five weeks isn’t it too long now n do u keep feeding it every few days?
@@milkweedfarms5481 hi n I need to know can I gain weight by taking kefir milk every morning ? I am very skinny n I want to gain more weight ya. And I love kefir milk. Thank you again .
Just found your channel The bread looks delicious Thank you for sharing
@@barbaratankersley7117 thanks for watching!
Don't rinse them apparently. No need to.
@@johnfreeborn979 I understand. This works for me if I let them sit too long
Looks great! Thanks!
You bet!
Thanks I do exactly like you and have been doing this for over 6 years. But my grains have never been "durable" or rubbery like it seems they should be and not stay above a spoon or even giggle like yours. If I stirred hard like that they would disappear. I still can make kefir by just adding milk to some of the milk with the busted up invisible grains. Thanks I would like some advice or hear from someone who has the same problem. Excellent video
I havent had that happen. I stir them cigourously and they are pretty sturdy.
Makes great biscuits or quick breads that call for milk or buttermilk in the recipe.
Yes. I love kefir!
Im new to milk kefir, mine isnt smooth, its kind of curdly, am i fermenting too long? 24 hours or maybe more?
Yes. The more it devours the sugars out of the milk the more curdly it will be. It also matters as to how many grains you have. The more grains the quicker it uses up the sugars. Try not setting it out so long
How much time does the grains take time to increase
@@Error-lz1vp they increase a little every day
My neighbor from Central America claims Thourburg Terracotta as the best favor for her dishes and she's cooking every day and they are the only tomato I've eaten whole and 4 different times each time I said WOW!😅😅😅😅 Now we are making salsa and I'll try them in it with some Roma . Thanks I'm seeing many RUclips does love them I recommend them to Gardener Scott and he did and Prairie Plantgirl and she's repeating it saying that it has to do good 2 season before she's calling any tomato a keeper.She suggest that it might be great in ketch-up Thanks
I love homemade kefir blended with frozen fruit and a little stevia and honey to sweeten. It comes out like ice cream.
Never use honey with kefir
I love orange, pineapple and kefir!
@@Error-lz1vpwhy not?
Great tutorial !!! I'm new to Kefir making and I love it! I'm pleased to learn how to wash the grains. Thank you for sharing. All the best.
Thanxs for showing elusive kefir grains of homesteading vry critical tip to wash wid distill water not wid chlorinated tap water which kills kefir live cultures
Yes , that is true. I use distilled for everything!
Good list. Terracotta is delicious
Thank you for a very informative video. I love kefir!!
You are welcome! Hope it helps!
Finally the video I wanted, thanks so much
Awesome! I hope it was helpful!
@@milkweedfarms5481 my kefir will speak for that in the 2 months since I made this comment. 👌👌
its easier to add milk to the kefir with grains and shake and strain.
I will also give that a try!
This is how we “rinse” grains - only with a little milk 🥛
Milkweed Farms, I subscribed because your videos are super cool!
Thanks so much!
Looks great! I will be trying this
I hope you love it as much as I do! Please let me know!

How much do you sell your grains for ? Thx
15.00 when I have them. I usually just sell them locally
I’ve been making my own avocado oil mayo. So easy to make with an immersion blender and lots cheaper than store bought. Lately I’ve been making ranch dressing with kefir and mayo.
I make kefir so I may have to incorporate that into some of my dressings! Kefir is so healthy!
What to do if the kefir turns out to be too sour
You can test it as you go. Usually 1 day will not make it too sour. I will say that over time, I have developed a taste for the more sour flavor!
Add more milk, shorten ferment. The fresh addition of milk will refresh and sweeten the sour kefir. Set on counter 12 hrs, then put in frig. I've also added MAPLE SYRUP at times.
Try doing a second ferment. After you strain out the grains, add a bit of fruit to the jar and let it sit on the counter again for a few hours, before putting it in the fridge. I’ve used different berries, orange or lemon slices , dates. You only need a couple pieces. The microbes eat on the sugar in the fruit and the flavour of the kefir mellows and gets a little fizzy. PIt also boosts the vitamin content even more. You can reuse the fruit or peel for several batches.
Thanks to all for the info!
@@gailv2989love this info! Thx 😊

Hey friend, I have the tower for my strawberries, so far so good.... Everything is looking so nice & healthy. I've never heard of the walking onion, interesting.
I hadn't either until last year but it just keeps reproducing and lives through the winter here in the midwest!
I am also trying Evil Olive this year. 🤞
Please let me know how they work out for you!
I made my salsa last week. Dr. Wyche's tomato I am growing this year for the first time. I only grow heirloom as I seed save. Haven't heard of the ones you talked about, except the mortgage lifter, i have heard of it
Cindy, I seem to add quite a few new varieties each year. I may have thousands of tomato seeds. They are my favorite thing to grow!
Our favorite tomato for sandwiches is Thornburn's Terra-Cotta. I'm excited to see what you think. Even my mother, middle child of PennDutch 400 acre dairy farm, asked all season 2023 for the Terra-Cotta tomatoes for sandwiches. We always grow Cherokee Purple which are delicious. Last year, I finally broke down and tried the Thornburn's Terra-Cotta (cost) and we were not disappointed. It will be in every tomato garden we grow from there on out.
Thanks for the input, Roxanne! Now, I am more excited than ever to give them a try! I have not done well with Cherokee purple. They tend to rot on the vine before time to harvest. Maybe I'll give them another try! :)
That’s a great idea I would definitely do that here in Philippines 🇵🇭
It is also great for growing beans! I will be making another for beans very soon!
Great project That looks like Oklahoma are you in Oklahoma?
No I am not in Oklahoma! I am in Missouri.
Thanks, I loveexotictravel!

Oh, Yummmmm! I need to go to Trader Joe's and get some of that shelf stable whipping cream and make those biscuits!!! Biscuits are comfort food!!!! And you are right! A little butter and jelly makes them more than perfect, for breakfast, lunch or dinner!!
I love your basement greenhouse!!!! Your plants are so beautiful and so green!!!
Thanks for the wonderful information. I love your editing skills also! Great job all the way around.
