I was kind of iffy about ordering kefir grains via amazon but these came in excellent condition. They were in a container and vac sealed to prevent any leaking. They were the size expected bc larger kefir grains don't necessarily mean anything. I received a good teaspoon amount which is great bc they multiple like crazy. It only took a few days of feeding to start to get a good flavor going considering they had a long travel time. It took about 5 days or so to get them and then I feed them immediately. The instructions were easy to read and navigate. My kefir grains are going strong and getting better flavor every single day. I use kefir in all sorts of things from drinking to sourdough kefir pancakes. I am so extremely excited. This is a great company to get kefir grains from if you are looking to start your kefir journey. I would recommend doing a second fermentation after straining the grains. I just attach the lid but not to tight bc it does build up gases during this time. I just let it sit on the counter for a few hours before releasing pressure and putting in the fridge. To me it adds a bit of a bubbly feel to the kefir. It's great. Definitely a 5 star.

After following the instructions and using the finest non-metal mesh strainer I could get on Amazon, all my Kefir grains simply disappeared. Not that there would have been many to start with, probably less than half a teaspoon when they arrived. For 3 weeks I was 100% sure that I am doing something wrong, and that with enough patience they would start growing. I mean, the milk thickened and even started to get some sour, tangy flavor, but nothing compared to the Kefir I buy in the store.So after I couldn't find any grains in my strainer anymore I bought some dehydrated grains, and they are not even completely "activated" yet and are already thickening 2 cups of milk in less than 24 hours, and they are growing like nuts.Maybe having live Kefir grains shipped when it's 110 degrees outside is not a good idea. And shipping just a tiny amount is probably not making it better. Anyway won't buy live grains online anymore.

Received milk kefir grains quickly. They were shipped in milk and very healthy. I make a pint of kefir every day. It's very tasty. I highly recommend this product.

I received my Starter kit 3 days ago. I read the directions that came with it, watched the video that you can access form a link that’s available on the printed directions and started my first batch. Initially, I thought that the amount was kind of skimpy, but I just did as directed. I noticed by the second “feeding” that surprisingly, the grains had already grown in size. And by the third day I actually had a batch of Kefir that was pretty much good to use! It was that simple! I was also again surprised by how much they had grown since I initially received them! I did warm up my milk to 75-77 degrees and could have probably let the third batch ferment a little longer, but I was too excited.If you want to try making your own kefir vs buying that stuff they sell in stores, I highly recommend this!

update #2: Now that I know more what I am looking at here, I don't think these are truly kefir grains. I think it might be just curds from already cultured kefir because none of them are solid like kefir grains should be. Kefir curds will culture your milk but it won't be true kefir because some of the bacteria and yeast that are contained within the grains will be missing.update: The seller contacted me and offered a refund, and apologized about the error on the product weight. In the mean time the grains do seem to be viable at this point. Very good customer service.Old review: There was less than a tablespoon of them - for $20? The product listing says $1.11 per ounce, so I should have gotten almost 20 ounces of kefir grains and this is not more than 1/2 ounce. Besides that, not packaged well, the plastic container leaked some of the contents. Grains have been in the milk for almost 24 hours and nothing is happening.

Pretty good! After 1 week I was able to make 1 gallon of kefir.

I unfortunately did not read the reviews before buying the kefir I’ve been making kefir her for about five years, so I’m very familiar with it. I went on a long trip and dehydrated my grains, I couldn’t get them to revive so I bought these, and like everyone else was pretty unimpressed with the minuscule amount of grains, probably a teaspoon or less. The grains I had before were very big and juicy and these were little dots. It’s been over a month of my having them pretty much in intensive care, and they still haven’t produced anything but a bit of a sour milk. Getting kefir grains to grow is not hard and the seller should have a supply of large active grains not these microscopic ones. Very disappointed
