I make rice milk kefir with WATER kefir grains. Rice milk is not a true milk and contains no lactose which is what the milk kefir grains eat. Water kefir...

For some reason, I feel we are keeping a dying tradition alive, most people I speak with have never heard of Kefir. My next project will be to make Kefir...
I Kefirize vanilla rice milk. I actually like the vanilla taste. I add a drop of coconut extract and I love it. Maybe I've gotten used to it! But I also brew...
Water kefir is just like milk kefir just grainer and more transluscent. It ferments on my counter just like the milk kefir does. Nothing complicated. It just...

I looked around a bit for something on kefir cheese and found this site. It sounds involved but still neat. I love fetta cheese. I wonder if I would love ...
I have heard that by Kefir-ing non-dairy milks the kefir will not continue to actually grow, but it will kefir them. I have heard others say that theirs did...
Remember that with aging, all sourness turns to sharpness. Age your cheese at 55 degrees for a couple months and the cheese will not be sour any more and will...
I too find the kefir cheese to be very flavorful. I happen to like it. Its delicious on bagels. I don't know what to do to reduce the gaminess of it other than...

Hello all, Since we were talking about making things with kefir I thought I'd ask this question. A soup recipe I am making calls for creme fraiche. The recipe...
I have a small refrigerator I use for my cheese "cave". I keep it warmer than 40, closer to 55. After the cheese has formed a skin I vacuum seal it. It ages...

Hi Robin, I got my kefir grains to grow in coconut milk. That is the only non-dairy milk I got them to grow in. Kombucha cultures left in the refrigerator will...
Thanks Marilyn! I had no idea. :) I'd be willing to try coconut milk if I can find it. The type in a can might work? And do you think I could move my blob from...
