Keeps getting better and better! - The little cup of kefir base arrived promptly and worked beautifully. I purchased the sugar shown, mostly because it supposedly had extra good flavor, and it certainly is the best tasting sugar I have ever sampled...mild and rich; not too heavy on the molasses taste, yet more than simply sweet. I followed the directions, being careful to avoid any metal, and completely dissolving the sugar before adding the grains. My jar is glass with a plastic lid that is vented to avoid any chance of exploding from pressure. I simply let it sit and day by day it gradually went from dark and still to lighter and lighter (I assume this was as the sugar was consumed). The liquid began moving around a little in the jar as it fermented, and while this was slightly disconcerting, lol, it showed the cultures were active. I began on a Monday morning and removed the liquid that Thursday morning. I think it would have been okay earlier, but this was my first time doing this and I wanted to be sure it was done. I poured the kefir into a different glass container, straining out the grains with a plastic mesh strainer. After that I rinsed them with spring water and stored them in a clean glass jelly jar. The resulting Iiquid tasted a bit like cider to me; pleasant enough as it was, but I decided to drop in some flavored green tea bags. I left those to rest for another 24hrs. The result was really good tasting. I think I may also mix this in with other things sometimes for variety and to up the benefits of other drinks, but it is really quite good as a stand alone beverage. Here’s an update: October 14, 2019 This is my 4th fermenting for my grains and they just keep getting stronger! They started out needing about two or three days, but by now it only takes a matter of hours. I put them in the sugar water at 9:30 am and already at 4pm they are starting to be bubbly. They’ll be ready for use by tomorrow afternoon. These are great! Another update! October 20, 2019 These grains are going wild!!! They started out measuring about 1/4 cup but they have now grown to over a cup in volume. It used to take a couple of days to yield just shy of a quart of kefir. This batch, however, using the same recipe as for the quart, I got a full half gallon of fizzy product in about 4 hours. I didn’t increase any of the ingredients other than starting with more spring water. I will never buy anyone else’s grains again! Review: The BEST water kefir grains I've purchased to date. - Let me start out by saying that I am no water kefir novice. I've been brewing on and off for five years and have experimented with tons of different sugars, water types, minerals, fruits, etc etc. I have also read just about every resource out there on the subject. What can I say, I'm a big water kefir nerd! I've purchased water kefir grains from several different sources in the past and I'm totally blown away by Florida Sun Kefir's grains. I've had them less than a week and they have already outperformed every other batch of water kefir grains I've purchased in the past (from other sellers). They are superior in the following ways: 1. Most kefir grains arrive in a "distressed state" and you have to baby them for a few weeks to get them to start making good kefir, and even longer to start multiplying. These plump babies started fizzing and multiplying the same day I received them! In 6 days they've about quadrupled in quantity, I kid you not. I have such an over abundance of kefir grains that I've been giving them away to neighbors and even feeding them to my dog (yes its safe to do that and its good for your four-legged friends too). 2. Shipping was super duper fast! Normally I'm not a stickler about fast shipping but when it comes to perishable, living organisms shipping time is important, and I was blown away by how quickly these arrived (ordered on a Friday and received on Monday). The quick transit time probably was a big factor in why these grains arrived in such great shape and went right to work. 3. Another reason these grains probably did so well immediately after their travels is that the seller is a packing genius! OK so now I'm going to bash the ignorant reviews that complain about the "balloon" the grains came in. First of all, it's not a balloon like the kind you blow up at parties, it looks more like a black sausage casing tied off at both ends, that's the best way i can describe it. I can't verify what material the "balloon" is made of, but I can verify that it is odorless and looks like it is intended for food storage. YES, there is a smell when you open the "balloon," but that is the grains you are smelling. They have come a long way in an airtight container and it got a little musty in there from the trip, it's NORMAL. The smell goes away after making your first batch of water kefir. Secondly, for those of you complaining about said balloon, it is a GENIUS and very inventive idea for transporting grains and this is why: Water kefir grains give off carbon dioxide. If you leave them in a sealed container without opening the container occasionally to relieve the pressure of the building carbon dioxide, the container could explode. This actually happened to me when I was attempting to transport some grains myself from Florida to Texas (I swiped some of my dad's grains while I was visiting him and put them in a jar in my checked luggage). Big mistake! When I got to Texas the jar lid was off and my grains were wearing my clothes ;). My point is, balloons are STRETCHY and therefore can ACCOMODATE EXPANSION from the gas the grains are releasing. The lesson here kids is that the "balloon" your grains arrive in is protecting them from exploding all over the box they were shipped in. So embrace the water kefir balloon packaging people and stop leaving this seller negative reviews because ot it!! In addition to the balloon, the grains are further protected from harm during transit because the seller then puts the balloon in a plastic food storage container and then puts the storage container in two thick zip baggies, further ensuring that no explosion takes place. Kudos to you Florida Sun Keir for your water kefir packaging genius! I have already consumed two batches of water kefir from these grains and can verify that they do produce excellent kefir. Now for anyone who might be on the fence about buying from this seller because this product is not Prime eligible and are tempted to buy dehydrated grains from Cultures for Health instead, let me save you the headache and tell you DON'T! Before buying these grains, I actually did buy from cultures for health and I will never, ever purchase dehaydrated grains again. Without writing an entire novel about it, let me just say that I should have listened to the warnings made by people on the interwebs about the awful performance and inevitable death of water kefir grains that have previously been dehydrated. I babied the **** out of the Cultures for Health grains and still they slowly disintegrated into oblivion. I actually started questioning my kefir skills until I purchased these grains and realized I wasn't the problem! So do yourself a favor and get your grains from FLorida Sun instead. The reason this seller can't sell these grains as Prime is because in order for a seller to make their products Prime eligible, the product needs to be stored at desertcart and shipped by desertcart. Obviously storing live water kefir grains in an desertcart warehouse is impossible, so this seller did the next best thing by offering free FAST shipping. And I mean faster than Prime shipping. Cultures for health sells their grains prime but at the cost of having to dehydrate them to give them a shelf life on an desertcart warehouse shelf. Listen to what this water kefir nerd tells you : dehydrated water kefir grains suck! I will agree with one negative point a reviewer made: This seller's PDF of water kefir info is God-awful in terms of spelling, grammar, and organization of information. They're great at growing kefir grains, not so much at publishing literature. But don't let that sway you from buying the grains, they're awesome. If you want good info about brewing water kefir, which water and sugar types to use, and recipe ideas, the Cultures for Health website is a great resource for that. Just don't buy their dehydrated grains or you'll be sorry ;) Maggie (Nick's wifey) ## Features - LARGE and HEALTHY ★ When you receive them they are ready to make Kefir Water.

Just don't buy their dehydrated grains or you'll be sorry ;) Maggie (Nick's wifey) ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ These water kefir grains are the BEST, and top-notch customer service! *by T***R on May 24, 2023* I ordered my first batch of these grains with high hopes, as I had already tried some dehydrated ones that just couldn't ever really take off. The grains were shipped immediately, but they were hung up somewhere in the USPS system and not arriving when expected. I waited and waited, and I knew after a week they were probably lost and would no longer be viable by the time I received them (IF I received them). I contacted Florida Sun to let them know my concern, and they were amazing! They immediately refunded my money and told me to order them again and that they would send me double the size originally ordered. AMAZING customer service! It wasn't even their fault, but they took full responsibility anyway. So they immediately sent out the next order of them, which arrived in about 5 days - Along WITH my first batch that had clearly been just hanging out in the USPS truck (long story, but it was indeed obvious). So now I have 3 of the batches of water kefir grains, so I decided what the heck, I might as well try the first batch as well just to see if it would work. I started 3 jars and followed the very clear, detailed instructions provided with the grains. I labeled them with the old/lost grains vs the new grains so I would be aware of which ones were "dead." Much to my amazement, all 3 jars took off and were happily bubbling away within just a few hours! I went through a longer first ferment for 3 days, flavored for second ferment, and I was rewarded with perfect, delicious, refreshing, fizzy water kefir! The grains multiplied in the first batch and are doing amazing. I very highly recommend this company and their grains. They package and ship them out very professionally, and the grains are healthy and alive (and huge!) upon receipt. Their instructions were very detailed and easy to understand. Note: The photo is the initial setup I did with the double batch they sent me as a replacement and the first batch that was still alive after 11 days in shipping. I have made 3 batches of water kefir out of them since the initial setup, and each one is amazing (lemon/ginger/honey is my favorite flavored one so far). ## Frequently Bought Together - SIX Brewing Bags Plus Large Portion Cup with 33% MORE Live Florida Sun Kefir Natural Water Kefir Grains - 1 TBSP Milk Kefir Grains and eBook "Milk Kefir Unleashed by Thomas Egbert" - Fresh Live Active Probiotic Starter Cultures - Fusion Teas --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sc/products/16950383-large-portion-cup-live-florida-sun-kefir-water-kefir-grains](https://www.desertcart.sc/products/16950383-large-portion-cup-live-florida-sun-kefir-water-kefir-grains) --- *Product available on Desertcart Seychelles* *Store origin: SC* *Last updated: 2026-10-25*
