One of our favorite ways to start the day around here....is with freshly fermented raw milk kefir. Kefir...is an absolute bad ass ...as far as peculiar bacterium....being produced from fermentation. I personally drink this stuff almost every day...and my belly just feels SO SO good! I've been making it the same way for about 8 years now. We use only local raw milk....and milk kefir grains from "Marilyn the kefir lady." I'll post some links below. SO MANY ...ways to ferment foods!! This is just one...of my favorites.

Check out Marilyn the kefir lady here: https://kefirlady.com/ you can also order grains from here at that link. She has been amazing to work with through the years!

We only use local Utah raw milk from Redmond Farms. Beta Casein A2 cows. Jerseys and Brown Swiss ladies. You can learn more about them here: https://www.redmondfarms.com/real-milk/

We have found that we can slow down fermentation....by adding an airlock to the jar. This way we...are able to add fresh milk every couple of days...instead of daily...by leaving just a loose lid on the jar.

CHEERS.... Steem blockchain!!!! Lifting our glass of kefir HIGH...in the air this morning. If you don't like the sour taste of... straight kefir...you can mix with berries...or fruit of your liking. My favorite is blueberries...or raspberries!!!!

For those reading this...that want to dive deeper into fermenting foods like kefir.....check out the work of Sandor Katz. We love his books.
