Water Kefir Grains by Cultures For Health

I would out ZERO But there no such option. Grains are completely Dead! It was not possible to activate them and they turned just to rotten mesh with some black … There no return policy unfortunately and just wasted more than $30 for the garbage product. Very disappointed experience l. I DO NOT RECOMMEND TO BUY ANYTHING FROM THIS SELLER!!!!

best u can get but they don't grow as rapidly as it should may be everything we eat here is full of insecticides and pesticides and finally few months after these microcells will finally stop growing and will die.

The grains did not activate. They are just mush

Followed instructions. After 3 days, no change. No plumping, no translucency. So DOA. I would like to try this one more time. One.

I should start this out by saying I’m not new to active cultured foods. I currently maintain several starters such as sourdough, kombucha, milk kefir, sour cream and lots of fermented veggies. So I’m aware that good quality dechlorinated water and the right kind of sugar are important. However, this was my first try at water kefir. I chose this brand because they seem to have a good reputation, I’ve purchased a sour cream starter culture from them in the past. I was pretty shocked though at the price of the water kefir starter, but I figured as long as I only have to buy it once, it’s worth it. I received the culture, made sure it came to room temp, and followed the detailed instructions on the packet, as well as the companies tutorial video to get started. By day 3, the kefir grains had somewhat rehydrated, though they didn’t look like plump translucent grains that I’ve seen before. They’re just brown mushy grains that have clearly disintegrated. I strained them anyway and put them in fresh sugar water to find that they’re fully disintegrated. What a mess. I’ve contacted the company to see if they’d help me troubleshoot, but so far I’ve heard nothing. I occasionally sell some of my starter cultures to people locally, and would never just leave them to figure it out in their own, and I charge a small fraction of this price. So I’ll be extremely irritated if Cultures for Health ghosts me on such a ridiculously priced product. I’ll be sure to update my review if I ever hear back.
