If anybody has surplus kefir grains, sourdough starters, raw milk etc it would be good to put it up on this discussion page. Then it is all in the one place and easy to find for future reference and newbies looking : ) Cheers!!

Hi Natalie

Yes they can be posted fine. Which are you after, the water or kefir? I have both, if you can cover postage, I can do that for you :)

Hi Suzie, do you still have some milk kefir grains and a kombcha mushroom? I'm in Karaka but would love to pick up some if you're interested. Thank you, Yuka

Hi Yuka, I am in Pukekohe and have some spare milk kefir grains. PM me your details if you want some. Andrew

It's a simple matter to make sourdough starter - all you need is rye flour and water.

Has anyone got any Water Kefir grains to spare in Nelson? Or keen to talk about fermented foods in general?

[Jane Powell]

Hello I am in Tauranga and have plenty of spare milk keffir, water kefir, kombucha scooby, and caspian sea yoghurt. (really delicious) we also have fresh butter  from our jersey house cow. Also raw milk at the moment.

Hi Jane,

I'm also in Tauranga. Is you butter raw by any chance?  How often do you have raw milk available?

Regards

[Jane Powell]

Yes the butter is raw and unsalted.

At the moment we have no milk spare, but you can ring me on  5422257

Hi Jane,

I forgot to ring you last night. I just wondered how is your cow doing, is she better?

Regards

[Jane Powell]

Hi, she is well, just with the heat the grass is down so milk production is down. Thus we are only able to provide butter for us at the moment. It takes 2 liters of cream from 10 liters or milk to make 1 pound of butter.

Will keep you posted   Jane

OK sounds good. Thanks.

Hi there I get lovely raw milk from the John's organics shop behind Countdown in Te Puke. You can order and pay through the winiatafarms milk club and it is delivered to John's on a Friday. It is beautiful milk. $5 for 2litres.
