Re: question on kefir and milk

[Guest guest]

, people do make kefir with coconut milk, although I haven't tried. Are

you using the grains to culture?

I used to drink raw milk kefir daily, before I realized I cannot tolerate milk.

The kefir used to get rid of my boating every morning, until something else I

ate later in the day brought it back. I really miss it. My grains died before I

could convert them to coconut milk. :-( Someday I will get more...

Oh, you can make water kefir but those require different grains than the milk

kefir. I don't know anything more about that.

You could try making your own yogurt with soy milk and health food store

yeast cultures.

Another option is to look around for goat farmers selling milk. As

there production is so low they won't bother pasteurizing. You might

have to buy a share in the goats as even unpasteurized goat milk is

illegal to sell. Nubian made goat milk isn't as pungent as other

varieties and is much creamier. Goat milk is similar in quality to

human milk apparently.

,

When you say you won't " get any raw milk here " , did you mean that you'd

never get raw milk, or that it's simply not able to be found in your area.

If you meant that you wouldn't be able to find it in your area, here's a

website that has links to where raw milk can be found. Hopefully you can

find a raw milk dairy near you.

10:28 am (PST) I was reading on making the kefir and saw where I had to use

unpasteurized milk. Well no way will I get that here.

I won't get any unpasteurized milk here.

Any suggestions, is it any good made with water?? Rice milk or what

should I do

All I can get here is just regular store bought milk, unless I want to

travel about 200 miles.......
