Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

In 3 weeks, my kefir grains have multiplied from about 1/3 c. to 6 cups! I'm now able to divide them up and try things like making fruit-juice soda, sourdough starter and I'm even eating them--they have a nice, non-slimy texture and sweet taste. I'm watering my plants and drinking a glass of fresh kefir every morning and a fizzy bottled kefir every afternoon. I haven't yet found anyone who wants my surplus grains, so I've even had to put some around my plants and throw a few away. This is one of the best purchases I ever made because it's fun and healthy. The only caution I'd sound is that it's something of a long-term commitment to keep making a new batch every day. You can rest them in the fridge but that's not supposed to be really good for them. They like to work! BTW, my highly successful recipe is to use the recommended rapadura sugar, plus 1 fig, a few golden raisins, a few fresh cranberries, about 1/4 of a fresh lemon plus tiny pinches of baking soda, unprocessed salt and bone meal. They double in size and number with every batch!
