After the first batch did not work for some

After the first batch did not work for some reason they were happy to send out another order free of charge straight away and give great advice to make sure the second attempt was a success

Amazing Product & Customer Service!!

I've been blown away by the amazing customer service I've received on numerous occasions, since purchasing the kefir grains. I had no idea how to do it properly. Sandy has gone above & beyond to help me & make sure I felt confident & comfortable. She was super quick at replying as well. The customer service is so much better than I've ever experienced. Thanks so much for creating a fabulous product & following up with even better customer service.

First attempt at milk kefir!

My first attempt at milk kefir was fraught, were they dying, did I ferment too long, too hot, too cold? Sandy was the calm voice of reason and talked me through the process wonderfully. The grains were and are extremely healthy and I can see years of milk kefir in my future! Thanks, Sandy and the Fermentation Station

Delicious, healthy powerhouses

The Kefir grains are powerhouses once they awake. They make very delicious and healthy kefir. Sandy was generously helpful as I learnt about the process. I appreciate the grains where grown on organic milk. Many thanks.

Vigorous culture

The little grains are very potent. After following the instructions about being patient for the first couple of days, although it produced very nice Kefir straight away, it’s now after about 10 days enthusiastically setting a jar of at least 500ml of milk into yummy natural Kefir.
