Organic Florida Sun Kefir with Unused Live Prickly Pear Cactus Nodules Virgin Water Kefir Grains - 1/4 Cup

AlicornAlicorn: I got my grains and put half the package in a wide mouth quart jar with unsulphered molasses and smart water.
I saved the other half in case I messed up.
A day went by… two days… three days…
On the fourth day I saw no fermentation, no lightening of the molasses, no bubbles, no grains “bumping” (moving up and down as the fermentation occurs), nothing.
I poured off the dark molasses water and put them into regular tea sugar water, so I could watch the grains. (Tea sugar is small lumps of turbinado sugar, so it has a small amount of molasses.)
I still didn’t see activity so I started pouring off some mother and feeding it. Nothing.
I splashed some of the mother into a jar of coconut water and added a prune to kick off fermentation and a lemon to keep the ph balanced.
The next day I tasted it and it was vinegar sour, so I knew fermentation had taken place. I tried to put a teaspoon of this into my glass with fresh coconut water but it was too sour and undrinkable, so I learned a young kefir is better for me. (I drop spoonfuls of the mother into my green tea several times a day, much more pleasant.
So now I knew the fermentation was occurring but I...

Karina Gonzales: Value for the money was great. Packaging was great. Appearance was great. The grains were a good size and they didn’t have an awkward smell. I followed the instructions to the T and my grains never produced bubbles. Pretty disappointed. I tried reaching out to the seller but I couldn’t find that option.

Svetlana I.: I thought when I get a product I can make water kefir. However, when I got the product I had to follow a instructions: I must use only organic special Blackstrap for water kefir. So I lost time because I had to wait other products for making water kefir according seller’s instructions. And finally when I started I recognised that grains dead… I lost time , money and nobody even Amazon cannot help me because of loosing time period for anything, it’s very unfair

Georgios Neophytou: They are not a bad batch but had better keifer grain batches from other suppliers they do multiply but not as fast as some other suppliers keifer grains. Still pretty decent and the taste is on the milder side to medium for me this is fine. But overall pretty decent keifer grain .

J-Roc: Preface: I've been brewing my own soda (root beer, mainly) for the past 6 months. When my wife told me about the benefits of probiotics and had me taste a commercial drink, I thought to myself, I can brew this! So I researched some reviews of grains and ended up buying this one from Amazon.

It actually simple to brew, similar to soda brewing. Don't be intimidated if you've never grown anything like this before. If you can make simple syrup, you can brew water kefir. Basically, you mix up a sugar water solution, put the kefir grains in there, rubber band a coffee filter or cheese cloth over it to ferment for 1-3 days (shorter the sweeter, longer less sweet/more tangy). After the fermentation process, strain out the grains and the left over water is your water kefir. You can flavor it how you like (use fresh fruits or fresh juice), seal it up in a jar for another day or two to make it fizzy, or refrigerate it if you want a cold, refreshing probiotic drink. Just whip up another sugar water solution, dump the grains in there, and repeat the process. The included instructions are clear and easy to follow. I use large mason jars for brewing and they work perfectly. I also put the...
