分送了許多小克菌母給朋友, 本來滿出濾網的小克, 現在只是剛好裝滿而已. 前幾次直接吃小克菌母, 效果好像更好, 所以查查資料, 讓小克努力增產. 以下為我翻譯及註解國外養小克專家Dom寫的說明, 我非常有同感! 牛奶克菲爾菌母繁殖的最佳環境 ( Dom's Kefir FAQ ) 不用清水沖洗克菲爾菌母, 只接觸牛奶 使用已認證的新鮮有機生牛奶, 以避免奶中含有抗生素 (台灣好像沒這東西, 牛奶至少都加熱殺菌煮熟過) 置於攝氏22度(華氏77度)左右環境 (太低溫的環境下乳酸菌會變少, 酵母菌太多會過酸) 將菌母置於大量牛奶中發酵, 菌母:牛奶 1:30 或 1:50 儘量讓小克處於pH 4.5環境 (檸檬汁酸度為pH2.3) 預防過度發酵過酸, 每隔24小時更換牛奶一次 更換牛奶時, 保留一點發酵乳不要全部瀝乾 (發酵乳中的酒精可促進小克菌母生長) 發酵期間, 偶爾搖動瓶子, 讓小克菌母可接觸尚未發酵的牛奶, 獲得養份 Original Text * The grains are not rinsed with water between each milk change. * Using fresh certified organic raw milk [possibly due to Certified Organic milk does not contain antibiotics as do most commercial milk types]. * Optimal temperature of 22ºC or 77ºF. * Using milk ratios between 1 : 30 to 1 : 50 [grains-to-milk by volume]. * Preventing the pH from becoming too low or too acidic [no less than pH 4.5] over extended periods. * Preventing over-fermentation by fermenting no longer than 1 day in the same milk. * Straining only 3/4 of the kefir i.e. leaving amounts ...
