This is the first time I have tried Kefir so I didn’t know what to expect

This is the first time I have tried Kefir so I didn’t know what to expect. So far everything has worked as it should. I’m a couple of weeks in now and I’m drinking it every day. The grains have expanded and look healthy. So much cheaper than buying it.

Starter arrived as described with clear instructions for activation

Starter arrived as described with clear instructions for activation. Didn't take too long to see the activation come to life and now i have a bubbly, vigorous starter mix. I absolutely love this smell of this sourdough starter and the first bake was perfect for a beginner!
If you're looking for an authentic sourdough starter with genuine heritage and excellent performance, I highly recommend this one.

Happy Grains

Received my milk kefir grains in the mail a few weeks ago and now am successfully making kefir at home! I am in Perth and the grains arrived in time alive and well :) Very happy with my order!

Excellent growth booster

Excellent growth booster. It made a huge difference to the potency of my Kefir which was tasting a little weak.

Kit Makes it so Easy

The kit made it so easy to get started making kefir straight away. It was so good bought two more kits for family members. The Fermentation Station posted the kits directly to them and we like to share photos and recipe ideas
