Today’s video is all about how to store your kefir grains when you take a break from making kefir. I will demonstrate 2 methods to store your grains.
Method 1-To store grains less than 2 weeks: Put 1 tablespoon of kefir grains into a quart jar and add 3-4 cups of milk (not ultra-pasteurized). Store in the refrigerator up to 1 week. For 2 week storage: 1 tbsp. to 7-8 cups of milk.
Method 2-To store grains 2 weeks-6 months: 1. Rinse the kefir grains in filtered water or make sure your water source is clean and chlorine-free.
2. Spread grains on unbleached parchment and allow to dry for a few days. 3. Put grains in glass canning jars and coat with organic powdered milk. I make sure the powdered milk covers the bottom of the jar.
Store in the refrigerator up to 6 months.
*I usually have several sets of kefir grains in storage just to be sure I have a backup.
When you are ready to make kefir again, wake-up the grains. It may take at least a week before they are back to normal.
Hope this video helps you because kefir grains are very important!
Keeping your own grains can save you so much money and provide you with a nutrient-dense probiotic food. Kefir is very important in our home and one of our staples for health!
