Anybody interested in some Kefir grains for the cost of shipping?
I have been brewing milk Kefir for some time; generally I brew a gallon per week. As the grains grow, it gets to be too much and I have to remove some. I've frozen some in case I need them in the future, and thought about drying some, but haven't tried that.
It is time once again to divide them, and this time I thought I'd go a different route. I have no interest in trying to sell them, but if anyone is interested in acquiring some grains, I'd be happy to give them away. Usual caveats: no guarantees, this is a live-culture product, use at your own risk, etc.
If you are interested, PM me.
I've dried them and woken them up much later (can't recall exactly but over a year I think) with success. Kefir is tasty stuff.
How did you dry the grains? Air dry or dehydrator? I have frozen some, but not tried to dry them.
I also have the same problem, but my chicken love them.
