Storing Grains in the Freezer
You can store kefir grains in the freezer for a few months.
Drain the grains and dry them, to remove as much moisture as possible.
Place in an airtight plastic bag and remove as much air as possible.
Keep in the freezer for up to 6 months.
Frequent periods in the fridge or freezer will weaken the kefir grains. We, therefore, recommend that you continue to use them regularly to maintain their vitality.
