Customer Review: Worked, but Required Experimentation, Tweaking...
Summary: 5 Stars
The first batch was prepared in a clean, glass, 2-quart container with a rubber lid. One packet of starter was added to one quart of organic whole milk. The packet was dissolved in the milk, the container was sealed, and the mixture was left to ferment at room temperature (approximately 70 degrees Fahrenheit) for 24 hrs. The first batch failed to ferment. Little change was observed upon inspection, save for a slight yeasty odor and a negligibly tangy taste.
A second packet of starter was added to the first batch, more milk was added to compensate for the 'taste test,' and the container was sealed once more. The second batch was successfully cultured in less than 24 hrs. It was bright white, almost yogurt consistency (a few more hours and I would have had a container of cheese), flavorful and produced a sparkling sensation on the tongue. A little more than a cup of this batch was remaindered and added to a new, clean, 2-quart container filled with milk. Hopefully the third batch will work as well as the second.
Tip: the first batch was 'agitated.' That is, I repeatedly rotated and shook the container to keep the solution 'mixed.' This may not be wise or necessary. The second batch was left alone, was not disturbed in any way, and worked beautifully.
Description of Kefir Starter Kit - Makes up to 42 Gallons of Kefir!
Kefir has many benefits including better digestion of fats, proteins and carbohydrates, and has been known for thousands of years for its anti-aging and immune enhancing properties. * Kefir is an ancient cultured food rich in amino acids, enzymes, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus and B vitamins. Kefir means "feel good" in Turkish, and that's just how you'll feel after drinking a glass in the morning! Easy and fun to make at home, it is superior to commercial yogurt. An absolute must after antibiotic use! * Unlike yogurt, kefir can actually colonize the intestinal tract and is simple and fun to make at home.Herbal Supplements
