Milk kefir grains are live active cultures consisting of yeast and bacteria existing in a symbiotic relationship. Adding the kefir grains to fresh milk yields a probiotic drink within 24 to 48 hours. This dairy kefir culture is reusable, and with care will allow you to make kefir over and over again.
- Traditional heirloom-style kefir culture (a.k.a. "grains" due to appearance); not a powdered starter culture
- Reusable culture; makes a new batch of kefir every 18 to 48 hours
- With proper care, the culture can be used indefinitely to create delicious probiotic-rich kefir
- Cultures on the counter at 67° to 80°F, no heating appliance required
- Can be used with cow milk, goat milk, soy milk, or coconut milk (see instructions)
Milk kefir grains are a starter culture that can be used with soy or coconut milk if care is taken to occasionally revitalize them in dairy milk. (Complete instructions will be included with each order.) Coconut kefir in particular is quite thick, rich, and delicious. Click here for information on making coconut kefir.
There are numerous uses for kefir including making a type of cream cheese, adding to smoothies, and drinking alone. Kefir can also be flavored after it has cultured and the kefir grains have been removed. Click here for more information on the numerous strains of bacteria and yeast generally known to comprise milk kefir grains.
Ingredients: Organic whole milk, live active cultures. Packaged with a small amount of organic powdered milk to extend shelf life. Click here to see what bacteria and yeasts are in the milk kefir grains.
Milk kefir grains are produced in a facility that also processes soy, wheat, nut, and fish products.
Shipping Information: Our milk kefir grains are shipped in a dehydrated state in a barrier-sealed packet. Upon receipt, the dairy grains can be rehydrated in fresh milk (this process usually takes 5 to 7 days) and then used to make kefir by adding the grains to fresh milk, stirring, covering, and leaving at room temperature until the desired consistency is reached (no more than 48 hours).
Complete instructions are included with each order. Click here to view our milk kefir instructions.
Questions on Milk Kefir Grains
- From SJ at 5/22/13 11:29 AM
- If would like to make non-dairy kefir (ie almond milk kefir), should I use water kefir grains or milk kefir grains?
- If you do not have dairy allergies, you can certainly make non-dairy kefir with milk kefir grains. However, you must refresh them in dairy milk every 1-2 batches as the grains require the lactose from dairy milk to survive. So you can alternate between non-dairy milk and dairy milks!
Water kefir grains are specifically for sugar water.
- Do you find this question helpful? Yes No
- From Zoe at 5/31/13 8:52 AM
- I just wrapped up day two of rehydrating the grains. I woke up this morning (less than 20 hours after they were placed in fresh milk) and the liquid has completely separated to whey and a frothy curd layer on top. Are the grains ready to make kefir already? It doesn't smell bad. Tangy/yeasty. I strained out the whey and tried to fish out the grains the best I could, which was hard to do in all those curds.
I think I need to store them in a cooler place to slow it down a bit, instead of right next to the stove/oven.
Did I do something wrong?
- You didn't do anything wrong, the grains are now working and ready for an increased amount of milk. It does sound like your temperature may be a little too warm so your kefir may culture more quickly than 24 hours. We recommend increasing the amount of milk slowly, about 1/2 cup more with each new batch. Your other option is to culture for less time and stop the culturing process when your kefir reaches that wonderful thickened milk stage. If you have any additional problems, please e-mail our customer support department at firstname.lastname@example.com. We would be happy to help.

- From Alicia at 6/11/13 4:18 AM
- After straining my kefir I put my grains (after rinsing them off with water) I put them into the grains into a cup and somehow got sidetracked and forgot to put milk in the cup and back into the fridge for my time out while using the already prepared kefir Have I ruined them I didn't realize my mistake for over 24 hours of the grains just sitting in the open air unrefrigerated and not cover with milk.
- It shouldn't be a problem although you may want to give your grains a gentle rinse (spring or filtered water) before you put them into milk to minimize possible contaminants. You basically started a dehydration process so it may take a few batches for the grains to readjust but they should be back making great kefir very soon.
- Do you find this question helpful? Yes No
- From Suzan at 6/14/13 8:36 PM
- Its very warm in our kitchen and our kefir is done culturing in less than 6 hours sometimes less. I have read that you need more time than that to get all the benefits?
- It sounds like you need to add more milk. Here is a great article about that: http://blog.culturesforhealth.com/milk-kefir-the-common-mistake-you-might-be-making/
- Do you find this question helpful? Yes No
- From Angela S. at 6/14/13 10:40 AM
- Is kefir (water or milk) okay to drink for someone who is sensitive to yeast? Thank you much - Angela
- Water Kefir and milk kefir both contain varieties of yeast, you can find the composition for milk kefir grains here: http://www.culturesforhealth.com/milk-kefir-grains-composition-bacteria-yeast and for water kefir here: http://www.culturesforhealth.com/milk-kefir-grains-composition-bacteria-yeast Please print the information and take it to your Nutritionist or Health Care Practitioner, they will be able to guide you based on your specific needs.
- Do you find this question helpful? Yes No
- From Claudia at 6/26/13 12:37 PM
- I am hydrating my milk kefir grains. I have been doing this for 4 days now. I was wondering what is the easiest way to strain the grains out? I have one of your plastic mesh strainers. I don't know the best technique to capture the grains and still be able to use the kefir. Thanks
- The easiest way to strain the grains out would be to stir up your kefir gently but thoroughly and then slowly pour it through the strainer while stirring in the strainer gently with your finger or wooden spoon.
- Do you find this question helpful? Yes No
- From jasmine at 7/11/13 7:33 AM
- I have always wondered about the nutritional contents of kefir. I you make your own at home, do you go by the nutritional contents on the carton of milk you are making it from? I've been told the culturing process eats up some of the carbohydrates. Is that true? and is the sugar content the same as it would be in the milk used (natural sugar) or has that been eaten up by by culturing process? thank you.
- The nutritional content will come from the milk. The grains consume lactose (milk sugar) so the carb content could be a little different in your finished kefir depending on the temperature and the length of time cultured which would make determining the final amount difficult without a lab analysis. To minimize the lactose left, let your kefir culture until it just begins to separate and keep in mind that the separation into curds and whey also means that the grains are running low on food.
- Do you find this question helpful? Yes No
- From pauleis at 7/14/13 11:38 PM
- Will kefir grains work with non-fat milk?
- Milk with any fat content ranging from fat-free to whole milk may be used with Kefir Grains. While Kefir made with reduced fat or fat-free varieties of milk will have a thinner consistency, the fat content itself does not influence the effectiveness of the Kefir Grains or the culturing process.
- Do you find this question helpful? Yes No
- From Nathalia at 7/30/13 4:20 PM
- Can I make the kefir with Lactose free milk (lactaid)? If not is Kefir ok for lactose intolerants?
- You could use milk kefir grains to culture Lactose free milk but the grains would need to go back into dairy to refresh (they need the lactose). You can cut down the amount of remaining lactose by culturing your kefir for a longer period (a second fermentation keeps your grains safe) but you would need to discuss any lactose issues with your Nutritionist or Health Care Provider to determine if it would be feasible for you.
- Do you find this question helpful? Yes No
- From ROBERT DICKINSON at 8/23/13 10:24 AM
- Excellent question! Milk Kefir Grains are a made up of a combination of different strains of bacteria and yeast. With proper care, the grains will last indefinitely. Milk Kefir Starter is a limited use culture that can be used to make kefir without grains. It is helpful for those who love kefir but do not wish to care for grains. Store bought kefir does not contain grains and may or may not be able re-culture for a short time. You will find more information about the differences here: http://www.culturesforhealth.com/choosing-kefir-grains-versus-powdered-culture

- Fast rehydration, reliable result, multiplying kefir grains Review by Asu
Price Value Quality
The day I started rehydrating coincided with a really hot weather wave for 2-3 days.The second and the third days the yield I had was a fermented product in a consistency of yoghurt, which tasted extremely good. By increasing the amount of fresh milk as suggested, I started to get fermented kefir in a drink consistency.
After 5-6 days, the little amount of grains I started with began to swell in size, which I hope grows bigger as many others experienced.

I made three 1 cup batches to get the grains going.
After that I was making real kefir that tastes great.
The grains are still very small but the milk is turning into kefir very quickly. I am having a hard time drinking all of it but that is a good problem to have.
I highly recommend these grains. (Posted on June 2, 2014)

Tonawanda News — I'd love to see somebody that hunts or shoots trap, take and sue the government for discrimination against hunters and sportsmen.
Congress is causing this big problem so they should take a pay cut. That's one way to settle some of the debt. If they don't want to do their jobs, force them to take a pay cut. And it should be the citizens voting on it, not the congress.
Sequester, why? Democrats, Republicans and every other politician there is, time to dump them all. Impeach them, if you can. Not sure if you can impeach everybody, but the president. What the heck is wrong with them? They can't agree on anything now. We voted for them, shame on us. Time to dump them all. Just don't vote for them.
If the White House really wants to save money they should cut the politicians' pay instead of the people who work for a living, like the guards and everyone else. Also all these bases we have in other countries, they ought to just close them and bring our people home. Then they could bring the money back to finish our ships and do our maintenance. You want to give Syria all this aid but do we get anything for it? We should get oil. You don't give nothing away for nothing.
The dog that died in the dog show, the people who own it should be checked to see how much insurance they have on that poor dog.

CNET editors choose the best 802.11ac networking devices, including wireless routers.
802.11ac standards officially hits a new speed with the Asus RT-AC87 Dual-band Wireless-AC2400 Gigabit Router Wi-Fi router.
Pricing not available
For advanced and professional users, the Asus RT-AC68U Dual-band Wireless-AC1900 Gigabit Router is worth every penny thanks to its stellar performance, solid build, and bounty of useful features.
Windows RT is a strange beast. On the one hand, speed, security, and the best of Windows 8 make RT a pleasure to use. But app restrictions make Windows RT confusing, and the limited availability of apps undercuts the operating system's usefulness.
Pricing not available
With its vivid screen, sturdy build, and sleek user interface, the Asus Vivo Tab RT is an excellent tablet in its own right -- but it can't beat the innovative Microsoft Surface RT.
The Asus RT-AC66U is an excellent router and is currently one of the best options among those that support the latest 802.11ac Wi-Fi standard.
It's a refurb, but it comes with a full one-year warranty. The 4G comes courtesy of AT&T, but only if you want it.
The Dell XPS 10 is a valiant effort at a Windows RT tablet but doesn't pack enough value into its base package to favorably compete with the Surface RT.
Acer is waiting for the next version of Windows RT before it decides whether to launch a tablet running that OS.
The much-improved 2012 Dodge Charger R/T offers a good blend of power and cabin technology, but could use a bit more refinement where efficiency and ease of use are concerned.
Device makers would reportedly no longer pay a licensing fee for either operating system, a move designed to combat Android, says The Verge.

TeraSpell 97 for Emacs
Manufacturer: Teragram Corporation
E-Mail: firstname.lastname@example.com
URL: http://www.teragram.com/
Price: $9.99 US
Reviewer: Daniel Lazenby
TeraSpell 97 for Emacs is a shareware version of the Teragram Corporation's Teragram Spell 97 for Windows, Mac and Unix. Naturally there are some differences between the shareware and the full product. TeraSpell for Emacs provides the Emacs user with a flexible multi-language tool for spell checking documents. As a test, I decided to use TeraSpell 97 and Emacs to write this review.
TeraSpell is used to spell check a word, line, region or buffer within Emacs. The evaluation copy contained only an American English spelling dictionary. Several other languages including British English, French and Canadian French, Dutch, German, Italian and Spanish were listed as possible language dictionaries. This software also allows users to define multiple custom dictionaries of their own.
The feature I like most is the phonetic spell checking. Spelling is not one of my fortes. Often I will spell a word the same way I pronounce it. Needless to say, my pronunciation of the word is not always correct, and hence neither is my spelling. TeraSpell did an excellent job of offering suggestions for my often abused spellings.
Using TeraSpell is as easy as opening the Emacs editor. TeraSpell appears as the left-most item on the Emacs menu. TeraSpell menu options include spell checking a region, buffer or word and spell checking words on the fly. You may also alter several default settings. Preferences that may be adjusted include the default dictionary, the foreground and background color used to highlight misspelled words, the underlining of misspelled words and the placement of the suggested spelling's floating menu.
There are two ways to set individual preferences. One is to start Emacs and make selections from the TeraSpell Menu. The menu method lasts only for the duration of the Emacs session. The other is to customize your ~/.emacs file which will cause TeraSpell to start with your desired preferences. Changes to the ~/.emacs file involve appending setq variable definitions to the bottom of the ~/.emacs file.
I configured TeraSpell to display misspelled words in red with a yellow background (see Figure 1). To correct a misspelled word you place the mouse cursor over the word and click the right mouse button. This right click action displays a pop-up menu with some suggested spellings or alternate words (see Figure 2). I noticed an odd cursor behavior when correcting misspelled words. The cursor seems to act as an insertion point when it is within a misspelled word. Instead of replacing the misspelled word, the new word was inserted into the misspelled word.
TeraSpell came as a gzipped tar file. The tar file extraction and installation of TeraSpell 97 went smoothly. The installation program was courteous of my existing Emacs configuration file.
Make sure you have TeraSpell 97 in the proper directory for your site. TeraSpell 97 builds its directory structures relative to where you extract the teraspell.tar file. On the evaluation copy, I used tar's p option to maintain the program's initial file permissions. The extracted directory structures are used to hold configuration files produced during the installation process.
Next I ran the install_teraspell program to complete TeraSpell 97's installation. I was then asked if I agreed with the License and if I wanted the ~./emacs file of the installing UID modified to use TeraSpell. The modification is a line that starts TeraSpell. The startup line is appended to the ~/.emacs file and the original ~/.emacs file is saved with a -tsbackup extension.
Both single- and multi-user setups are supported. Single-user setup is considered to be the installing UID. Multi-user setup involves activating UIDs other than the installing user (I know this seems obvious). UIDs other than the installing UID will have to run a program called ts_adduser or manually modify their ~/.emacs files to load TeraSpell with Emacs.
My installation only allowed the installing UID to use TeraSpell. To make TeraSpell available to other users, I had to modify TeraSpell's directory group owner and some group permissions to accommodate my system configuration. I also had to change the group permissions on the emacs_config.el file from 600 to 640, so members of the users' group could run TeraSpell.
Product Requirements Documentation for the reviewed copy of TeraSpell indicated it runs on Linux, HP-UX, IRIX, Sun4 and Sun5. I did not see a minimum required version of Emacs in the documentation. I did notice the installation process verifies that an Emacs release 19.29.1 or newer is installed.
Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

A new Debian and a new Debian leader
The new Debian "Etch" release follows a close Debian Project Leader election. Sam Hocevar surpassed other candidates by only eight votes.
April 8, 2007, Debian Project Secretary Manoj Srivastava announced a winner in the election for a new Project Leader. The choice came as a surprise to many people: Sam Hocevar won the battle. Just a short time later, the tickers displayed a second Debian announcement: The developers announced that Etch was now finished and available as an official release. Hard Fought At about 2am on April 8, Manoj Srivastava published the interim results of the election for a Debian Project Leader (DPL), causing an outcry. Many voters considered Steve McIntyre a hot favorite – after all, he finished a close second to Anthony Towns in last year's election – but the majority of votes went to Sam Hocevar (Figure 1). The graph with the election results, which was published after the shouting died down, might help you understand the complicated DPL election process, which is based on the Condorcet method [1].

KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Maryland just wrapped up its practice session, with Greivis Vasquez hitting the midcourt shot to finish things up.
Most importantly, everyone looked pretty relaxed, as if the weight of the last few weeks is finally gone.
Make no mistake, it is.
Sure, Maryland could play poorly tomorrow. But the Terps clearly don't feel like they have much to lose. And that's a very good thing for a team that has faced that situation all season.

Painting with Raney Blog
Raney Rogers is one of North Carolina's most well-known artists. Her diverse styles reveal varietal subject matter from quickly painted plein airs to highly detailed, realistic works completed in the studio.
Rogers has exhibited nationally as well as internationally and travels as often as possible to find new subject matter and inspiration for her work. Raney also teaches workshops. She is available for scheduling in your area.
"Boy in Tidal Pool"
"White painting on location at the shore I created a number of plein air watercolors which are quick paintings done outdoors - a method inspired by the Impressionsts of the early nineteenth century. The boy sat and built his sand castle for over an hour and exemplified to me a lazy summer day passed with total absorption in the moment."
This is a SPECIAL EDITION SIGNED AND NUMBERED GICLEE, with certificate of authenticity.

Dodrupchen Jigme Tenpa'i Nyima
The Third Dodrupchen, Jigme Tenpa'i Nyima (1865–1926) was born as the son of the great emanation terton Traktung Dudjom Lingpa. In the land of Golog, Tibet, he ascended to become one of the precious ornaments among the greatest scholars and practitioners of his day. Not only has his legacy of scholarship and accomplishment become extremely well known and cherished throughout Tibet and foreign lands, his writings have become a life force of the Buddhist doctrine. In order to benefit both the doctrine and all living beings, Dodrup Tenpa'i Nyima left behind a treasure trove of collected writings and a lineage of qualified disciples who resemble a range of golden mountains. He was one of the great bodhisattvas of recent times.

DH and I did most of our shopping yesterday. We had gotten a nice gift for our son and his wife a couple of weeks ago....and then I saw that it was on sale somewhere else so I went back in and was quite surprised when I was given the difference. They first said no that they could not do this as it had been over 7 days. I told them that I would just return the gift to them and get my money back. Well, that changed their mind I guess. I ended up saving almost $200 and did not have to do anything. I was happy about this since $200 can go a long way on things that my GC need. One of them also has a birthday in January.
We also had to pick up a few other things for Thanksgiving as well. No deep die pie shells left so I have to go back to another grocery store today to get them. Gotta have pumpkins pies.
Here is hoping each of you had a good night's rest and I hope today will be a good day for everyone, with little to no pain. I hope the dragon is hibernating for the winter months. (I am wishing) I keep thinking that I am going to get rid of it when I get to some sort of *magic age*....anything is possible, right?
As we all get ready for Thanksgiving this week, remember to be careful and pace all you can....I know just how hard this is especially if you are the one having to do a lot of cooking and cleaning. But this is also important for our bodies and our minds as well though.
Not knowing when our GB will be arriving has made it tough. I have a turkey though and am planning to start today cooking so I can only hope that the baby will either arrive before Thanksgiving or wait until it is over. I hope that the born does not decide to arrive on Thanksgiving Day. But I had said we just might have a *little turkey* this time.
Welcome to the new members who have joined our support group. I am sure that each of you will soon find something that will help you cope better. Hang in here with us and ask questions. We have a good group of FMers here who will offer lots of good information on how they have learned how to cope better. There is nothing easy though about dealing with the wrath of the dragon though....everything seems to be a process that you have to go through to find what works for you.
Check out the info under *tips* and *resources* and be sure and read the *member toolbox*....where you will find some good *tools* that perhaps you have not thought of trying. You never know what just might make a difference in the way you feel.
Vitamin D....again I have to include this *important tip* for everyone. Low Vitamin D can cause additional pain for some people and it can also affect other illnesses as well. Be sure and speak to your doctor about this.
That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
Have a good Tuesday and try to stay warm.
I'm helping hubby pack stuff and clean. I've been so messed up by this cold though that I'm not going to some of the heavier things--like clean carpet/floors. He says just pack stuff & clean the fridge/kitchen & he will do the rest.
Been working a while now--and pacing. Do a bit, stop, do a bit, stop. I was thinking it was discouraging how slow I am--but now I see it is not even 10 and I have emptied and packed a book case & a big dresser done some laundry, have bottom of fridge soaking and stove top. So-- hey-- that's really not so bad for an 85 y/o. (although I'm technically turning 55 next month) Doin' what I can do. So glad he can pick up my slack. Up until this move the clean up has always always been entirely my job-- aint happening this time.
Thank ful for the help. Mary
I can not even imagine trying to pack up and clean as well. You are a brave person. I sure hope you do remember to pace all day or as long as you work at doing this. Good luck with this chore.
My little furbabies did not even want to go outside this early morning. I opened the door and they looked and backed away from the door. I guess they thought they could wait a while, probably in hopes that next time the rain would not be there. Nope, that didn't happen either. I hate that they have to go out in the rain. I have thought about getting a cover to put on the side but that has not happened yet. My little female dog has to *find the perfect little spot* to do her business....she is so very funny to watch. Well, this morning it did not take her long at all, actually she did not go very far and decided it was get it done and back in the house. I had to dry them off once they came back in.
I hope things go ok for you today. Be careful driving back as I think parts of NC will be still having rain tomorrow. They had called for some sleet and possible snow flakes in some places. I am NOT ready for wintertime.
Take care.
I had a message that you'd responded on Facebook, but Clockwork Healthcare had pulled it by the time I got there. Whatever we did must have annoyed them quite a bit, they don't have Comments open at all on their Facebook page. Dave from the Pain Management Community had also written something.
Anyway, their posts are gone from here and Pain Management, but are still on a lot of other boards.
I'm starting my Thanksgiving cooking today, pies, stuffing, veggies, and salad. My husband is on call around the clock and we don't always know when he'll be here, so I prep a lot ahead. Then I only need a few hours notice to get it on the table.
Quite honestly I am quite surprised at just how much people can get by with doing on the internet. I do post to quite a few sites but I do try to follow the guidelines. I don't think many of my comments have been deleted that I am aware of but I do know that I had offended some people by what I post, which is only my personal opinion.
I hope you have a great Thanksgiving and try to remember to pace, pace and pace even more.
Take care.
I am not feeling well at all today. I made a few steps forward with my pain level yesterday and woke up a big jump back. I slept terribly last night, probably a major contributor. It is hard to know what to do next on days like these. I was thankful for a decent work day, it was quiet and I could work at my own pace. Day by day...
The DW has an appointment set up to check the health of my Buster Brown. I am hopeful that he has a few good years left. We will see what the vet says next Friday.
On the bright side tomorrow is my last day until Monday. Hopefully it's enough recovery time to make it through the next round.
Mimi, $200 is a nice return. It's worth the effort to save your hard earned money.
Mary, glad your pacing yourself, smart!
I hope you all have a good night. Take care everyone.
It is not to bad here in Kansas, chilly in 40's but no freezing rain! yuck! I bet you are so excited about your GB! Hope all goes well. Yesterday I did way to much, had to get up early for class which is never easy for me then I was actually feeling decent so I started cleaning due to family coming tomorrow and of course I am not even done and I worked all day then went shopping for Thanksgiving, by the time I picked my daughter up from cheer I looked about as bad as I felt. I went to bed and was out, of course I over did it and I am paying for it today. When I do feel decent I get so excited and what to do what I use to do like maybe I am healed or something.
Oh wanted to tell you something kinda funny in my mind anyway. Until I got on this board I really did not know about Fibro brain fog. So since my symptoms came about two years ago my doctor said I had adult ADD and I have been on three different ADD meds, which none worked so I have stopped taking them because I do not have ADD! I just think its funny that he has never mention fibro fog and I wonder how much her really knows about fibro.
Have a great Thanksgiving! I need to try to get my butt up and get busy so I need no fatigue or pain for at least today and tomorrow!!! Same for you!!!
Hope your weather improves!

Quote: Sounds like you are not getting the support from iOptron you should be getting. To be told "some are noisier" is a very poor comment on their Quality Control and on their customer support.
Quote:Hello,I just purchased an IEq45 mount. I have a couple questions for owners of this mount.1. Is your mount excessivly noisy? Slewing it sounds like a small jet plane taking off and during tracking i can hear it from 20 foot away, no kidding... I have had both an LX200 and a cgem and they were much quieter.2. Hand controller is excessivly slugish, the dec+ button sometimes takes may hard and long presses to get working.3. The dec motor sounds like a telephone modem most the time.I have put an email into ioptron tech but I want to hear some owner opinions. Most of what I have read here and other places have been positive, but after my first night with it I am less than impressed. Periodic error is not good, backlash in dec is high (setpoint of 850). Tracking while guiding is not good, due to the high PE.I am going to give tech support and the mount time, but it may be going back.Thanks,Wem
