Re: Fermenting Jars/Crocks & kefir

[Guest guest]

For kefir I use any size jar that I have, from small on up.

a question on kefir - I have been buying kefir from my farmer. He uses kefir

grains to make

the kefir. I have been adding 1 T. of his kefir to 1 c. of raw milk and letting

it sit for a day or

so. the end product looks and tastes like kefir. is this an acceptable way of

making kefir?

would it be as good as using the grains?
