Let customers speak for us
from 132 reviewsI received my pkg of kefir a few weeks ago. I followed the activation instructions and got to making the right consistency in 3-4 days. Every morning I strain the grains from the kefir, pouring the kefir in a glass container and then putting it in the refrigerator to drink later. I then rinse the grains while still in the strainer with cool water and then put them back into the glass bottle, adding whole organic milk. I started with 1/4 cup milk but am now up to 1 cup of milk. Very easy to do. Only takes about 5 mins every morning.
I had a delivery issue and the company was very quick to respond and send out a new package right away. Highly recommend Mountain Keifer!
Just what I had hoped for. Because the photo for the grain pack had a wooden spoon, I expected one to come with the grain...especially considering the cost. But I am happy with the kefir the grains produce and appreciate the helpful articles in their blogs.
Got these for my brother-in-law and he LOVED these.
It's been a few weeks now since I received my shipment. The grains took a few days to reactivate after their journey to my home,. They have been giving me lovely kefir ever since. We have even made kefir cheese in the last week!
Ordered milk kefir grains. They arrived in the maiL packed in enough food for the journey. Very healthy ample supply of grains that are actively making kefir for our family
The delivery was safe and arrived through Canada Post in good condition. The kefir grains are very good and came with clear instructions, which made the process easy to start. In just a few days I was already drinking a pint of kefir, and I have been doing this every day since then.
I also appreciate the email support. They respond well and help when needed. Overall I am happy with the purchase and would recommend it to anyone who wants to start making kefir at home.
Came with easy to follow instructions. Mild, pleasant taste. Very helpful for sluggish digestion.
Since I am the only one in my family that believes in the power of good gut health I have reduced the amount. After the initial start in a quart container I started using a pint container and then just adding a large wooden spoon of the Kefir grains and adding milk. I then put it in my yogurt maker at 78 degrees for 24 hours. The next day I repeat. It turns out thick tangy Kefir grains with a small amount of whey in the bottom. Except for my starter spoonful I consume the entire amount mixed with my 2 strains of fermented dairy (Dr Davis). I added some powdered fiber and chopped pineapple. This works for me. I am open to ideas on types of fiber to add.
I was able to start making my kefir very quickly. Everything is high quality andI’m very happy with my purchase.
Arrived quickly and in good condition. Took a few days for the kefir to taste right. Recommend this company.
I'm 70 years old and only recently discovered the secret world of the micobiome and the extraordinary properties of homemade milk kefir. How did I miss this all these years?
Well I've learned that its never too late to come to this party, You're always welcomed. And its incredibly easy to get good at this and to experience the rapid symbiotic benefits of both.
I'm hooked. And I'm having huge fun exploring the nuances of kefir—milk style, yogurt style and cheese style.
I began with powdered starter, and as I learned more and read other's stories, I quickly acquired grain-envy. I had to find a trusted source. So I started searching.
What attracted me to Mountain Kefir was your singular focus on quality heritage kefir grains, and your down-to-earth voice.
So I splurged, and bought the 8 gram option. Yet I was a bit puzzled at what appeared to be a somewhat meager quantity of grains when they arrived. They fit in less than a tablespoon! Hmm...
But I had no idea what was about to happen.
After 4 weeks, my grains have exploded into a powerhouse. I can make a half gallon of exceptional kefir every 24 hours.
Thank you for such a great product, and for the excellent grain-care instruction. Cheers.
This is my first experience making my own kefir, and I’m so impressed with the grains and the guidance! It’s been a success and I love the product.
