Kefir 101: How It's Made

Kefir begins with fresh pasteurized milk, fermented using kefir cultures—beneficial lactic acid bacteria and yeasts derived from traditional kefir grains.

  1. Fresh Milk Base: The process begins with high-quality pasteurized milk as the foundation.
  2. Kefir Cultures: Live cultures are added, containing beneficial bacteria and yeasts derived from traditional kefir grains.
  3. Fermentation: These cultures transform milk sugars into probiotics and nutrients during a 24-hour fermentation at about 20°C.
  4. Completion: Kefir grains or starter cultures are removed to ensure consistency, quality, and safety in the final product.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Are Kefir Grains?

Kefir grains are unique, gelatinous clusters of beneficial bacteria and yeast. Composed mainly of lactic acid bacteria like Lactobacillus, Lactococcus, Leuconostoc, and beneficial yeasts such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae, these grains form a polysaccharide matrix called kefiran, which contributes to kefir's thickness and health benefits.

Is Kefir Pasteurized?

The milk used to make kefir is pasteurized first, ensuring safety and consistency. Kefir itself, however, isn't pasteurized after fermentation, ensuring billions of live probiotics remain active when you drink it.

How is Kefir Different from Yogurt?

Unlike yogurt, kefir contains a broader and richer variety of probiotics, including beneficial yeasts. Kefir typically includes yeast fermentation, producing slight carbonation and trace ethanol, enhancing its unique flavor and probiotic diversity compared to yogurt.

Can Lactose-Intolerant People Drink Kefir?

Yes! Kefir contains probiotics that naturally break down lactose, making it easier to digest and suitable for many lactose-intolerant individuals.
