Hi!

I received freeze dried kefir culture.

Do you think I can prepare it in my yogurt maker, when the temperature is too low ?

Thank you !

The temp for incubating kefir 68F-75F (room temp) It will ferment at higher temperatures but the resulting Kefir might not have a desirable flavor.

Oh, OK then! Thank you Christy !  :)

I have just prepared it straight in the tetrapack UHT milk container.

I am wondering, should I let the container open, or is it OK if I close it again ?

Many thanks!

I ferment with a closed container.
