Yield: This amount of kefir grains will produce about 4-6 cups of delicious kefir each batch (24-48 hours) to start with and much more as the kefir grains grow.
Notes: Our grains are grown in Organic Whole Cane Sugar. This sugar makes for extra healthy and happy kefir grains. It also gives it a slightly brown tint (as pictured). Upon arrival, you will notice that the water kefir grains will be sitting in a light brownish liquid. The color is simply due to the organic raw brown sugar. If you grow it in white sugar, they will turn clear. Keep in mind that these grains can usually thrive in any desired sugar and will change color based on the sugar used.
Shipping: Shipping starts at $3.15. Expedited shipping available.
Will ship within 2 business days.

Wholesale: We now offer wholesale water kefir grains for $7.50 per lot if you purchase 10 or more.
I haven’t made water kefir in ages as my partner prefers the bite of kombucha, but I wanted my toddler to have a fizzy drink option that didn’t have a mystery amount of alcohol. I asked around a few friends and one recommended yemoos, and I was immediately impressed that the price was so reasonable for twice the amount of grains offered elsewhere. The grains were fat and happy upon arrival, and I used a packet of yemoos sugar blend asap, changing up the sugar and dried fruit for the first four batches before making a full batch for us to finally share. BELIEVE when I tell you this is the tastiest water kefir I’ve ever made, and I used to tend and sell it at a few vegan restaurants back in the day! These grains have also more tripled in size over 14-days, so I start two rolling batches, plus my spare starter batch in the back of the fridge. [1/4C or ~60g on arrival, now pictured is 90g with 30g not pictured in fridge]
We followed the directions exactly but they did not do anything. We have a thriving milk kefir and have no problems with them. Also, we did not share utensils or keep them close to each other. I dont know why, but it seems they were dead on arrival.
We’re sorry to hear the grains didn’t activate well for you. Water kefir grains can sometimes take a few batches to fully wake up after shipping, and results can depend on water, sugar, temperature, and mineral balance. We always encourage customers to contact us directly if they run into trouble so we can help troubleshoot or make things right. We’d be happy to help if you reach out.
I have tried making water kefir from dehydrated grains without success. I decided to give it up and then saw an ad for Yemoos on Shop. I decided to order some live grains. Wow!! They came in great shape, smelling yeasty. From the start, I have had fizzy, tasty kefir! And after only 5 weeks, I have enough grains to share!! The adoption certificate is also fun. I would 100% recommend Yemoos for your culture needs!
your products are great
A few weeks ago, I purchased some milk kefir grains, and I was quickly producing excellent-quality kefir. I assumed that working with water kefir grains would be very similar—a misconception that actually slowed down my progress. I must say, however, that they arrived in excellent condition; once I figured out the correct proportions to get started, everything has been going wonderfully. They reproduce very quickly—in just one week, I’ve already tripled the amount of grains I have—and I’m now successfully creating batches with a perfect flavor profile.
