    Anybody knows where i can buy some Kefir grains, so to make kefir myself.

    I can order it on amazon or ebay, but maybe there is a local supplier also? Specially because i read there is a coconut water kefir also, originating from the ph!

    i haven't made kefir in a long time but i remember kefiring cream from our jersey cow. yum.... yum...... i'd think any milk would coagulate with kefir grains , even powdered milk.

    Finished making my first batch and i love it, reminds me of 'karnemelk' from Holland but then with all the health benefits.
    I used the goat milk from Lee.

    My Kefirs are doing great, and they are growing to much for us to use.
    So if anybody is interested in making kefir, i got some grains for you.

    I am very happy with the goat and cow milk for the kefir. I tried a bit with buko juice but I did not really like it.
    I love Buko Juice, drink it everyday and did not see to benefits to ferment it.

    But i know a lot like it.

    i'll do that but if you don't have a culture and want to sour coconut milk (squeezed from the meat of a brown coconut), you can let freshly made coconut milk sit a nite in the refer, then a couple of days on the counter until it gets to where i like it, normally in two days at our cooler elevation. i then keep it in the refer and use it for a green salad dressing along with a squirt of bragg's amino acids. the ferment easily keeps for several weeks in the refer.

    why the overnite in the refer? i dunno, but that's where i had the best results when i first started the procedure and i stuck with it. i've been doing this for about 5 years and never had a failure. we also use indigenous micro-organisms to culture flour for bread, sauerkraut, cooked white rice for indigenous fungi microorganisms for the garden, lacto and several other foods. fun stuff, eh...
