Guest guest Posted February 4, 2012 Report Share Posted February 4, 2012 I bought Yogourmet Kefir starter to see if one I would like it and to test how much trouble making Kefir would be. I also purchased a 32oz of Holios Kefir that is ready to drink. The Yogourmet starter is pretty easy but the instructions tell you to heat the milk to 180 degrees and then cool it to 73 -77 degrees before adding the culture packet. In about 20 hours or curds had formed and I stirred it and placed it in the frig for an additional 8 hours to " stop the process " as the instructions say. I found both the ready to drink and Yogourmet Kefir similar but the Yogourmet was a little thinner and taste more subtle. I have looked and looked and I can't seem to find an explaination on what the difference between freezed dried Kefir like Yogourmet and Kefir grains. I understand that the grains are reuseable but the Yogourmet has 6 packets that make a quart each and the packets are good for a long time. While I am learning to like this stuff I know myself well enough to know I will have to take a break from it from time to time. The exp date on the package I have is 9/13.
