MilkKefir is a fermented dairy beverage made using Milk Kefir "grains" (a nickname, no grains involved). It originated from the Caucasus and Balkan regions and is very popular throughout Eastern Europe. With overnight fermentation, the Kefir grains convert much of the lactose in the milk to lactic acid, making it much easier to digest than plain milk. Kefir contains a long list of beneficial bacteria and yeasts that can help improve digestive health.
These grains are fresh and take very little time to activate after their transit time. They have never been dried or stored in a dormant state. We give them fresh milk daily to keep them healthy, active and very well-balanced. We guarantee they will revive for you or we will send you a new batch.

Water kefir grains are a symbiotic relationship between yeast and bacteria and have no affiliation with wheat. They are plump, translucent grain-textured bacterial cultures that convert sugar into healthy probiotics, vitamins, enzymes and electrolytes. They emit CO2 which adds fizzy carbonation to the drink. Water kefir can help boost the immune system, enhance gut health and calm bloating.
Water kefir grains offer an abundance of different ways to incorporate live probiotics into your life. Not only can you make a low sugar soda within 48 hours, but the grains can be used to ferment coconut water and all nut milks. Water kefir grains can also be used to make: sour dough starter, coconut yogurt, salad dressing, gummies, popsicles, smoothies and much more!
Milk kefir grains apparently originated on the plains of the Caucasus a few thousand years ago. Nomadic peoples used kefir grains to preserve milk over long periods, well before the introduction of refrigeration. Kefir was consumed for its health and longevity benefits.
Because milk kefir grains multiply when well cared for, it is common for people to give some to friends and family when they have too many grains. If you have a relative who has good quality kefir grains, ask them if they have any to share with you!
Kefir grains are small white balls containing billions of microorganisms that transform milk into kefir. These grains allow you to obtain a probiotic fermented drink that can improve digestion and strengthen the immune system.
Kefir is a living culture, a complex symbiosis of microflora that naturally form grains or cauliflower-like structures (sometimes called plants) in the milk. So far more than 50 strains of bacteria and yeasts have been found in milk kefir worlwide. European kefir typically contains over 20 different bacterial strains. As the culture ferments the milk these structures grow, creating new grains in the process. Real kefir from live culture is an endlessly self-propagating process
You will receive a sachet of grains in liquid (to keep them safe on their journey to you) This liquid is provided to keep the grains alive and healthy on their journey to you. 10g of grains will brew you 500ml every 24-48 hours and you can brew more once they grow.
Once received all Live kefir grains require settling as they adjust to there new environment (they are very temperature sensitive) this takes between 3-5 brews. Once settled they will make yummy kefir everyday. The grains grow VERY quickly so you can quickly increase the volume you brew if desired as your grains naturally grow and replicate themselves, although it may not seem like you get much the grains pack a powerful punch and having too many grains when you start brewing is not helpful. You will receive access to our online resources including instructions, videos and our blog with helpful hints and tips and full email support. We do not just send you the grains and leave you to get on with it, we are here to help you begin your brewing journey.

We only dispatch Mon-Thursday to avoid the live cultures sitting in the post over the weekend and sometimes we may have to wait for a culture to finish growing before we can send it.
We will try to get orders dispatched as quickly as possible but due to the nature of the goods as well as the volume of orders we receive it is not instant dispatch and in most cases it will take us at least a day or so to pack up orders.
We apologize that this will increase postage costs but this is because we have had to switch to fully tracked services as Royal mail do not seem to want to deliver letters or untracked post. They have also just increased their prices by 10% and added a new climate surcharge and also a further fuel surcharge and a peak time surcharge (they are now charging more when they are busy!) and they now charge us to return to sender if there has been an address issue that prevented delivery.
If you believe your item is lost/not delivered/incorrectly delivered, you need to provide specific evidence. This applies if the item has been tracked to the recipient's delivery office, and there's no tracking to confirm delivery has been made or attempted. Alternatively, if the item has been confirmed as delivered, but you believe the delivery information is inconclusive, you will need to provide evidence if any of the following apply:
Please note that where an item is tracked as delivered to the intended address, and delivery evidence supports this, they will not consider any claim for loss. If the item has been stolen from a secure location or by a neighbour this will need to be reported to the police.
These are Royal Mail's new rules, we have no option but to follow them. If you do not provide us with the evidence that Royal Mail require we will not be able to help. Royal Mail are doing this due to a huge rise in fraudulent claims and mail fraud.
As we sell a lot of glass and fragile items we do have to use a great deal of packaging. We do try to keep it to a minimum BUT we would rather your item arrived in one piece than be mean with the packaging.
HOWEVER all of the packaging that we use is either recycled, can be recycled or is biodegradable. The only exception to this is the tape we use which is made from PVC and needs to be thrown in the normal waste.
If you purchase an item that we have not physically made (ie from Kilner or Kefirko) we cannot guarantee the internal packaging is plastic free but we do encourage our suppliers to use as little plastic as possible.
