Kefirko – Second Fermentation Bottle Welcome to the world of enhanced kefir! The Kefirko Second Fermentation Bottle is your perfect companion for taking your homemade kefir to the next level. Designed with both functionality and convenience in mind, this glass jar with lid makes monitoring, pouring, and enjoying your kefir an effortless and enjoyable experience. Why Second Ferment Your Kefir? Second fermentation is a popular step among home kefir makers, and for good reasons: Improved Flavour: Second fermentation helps reduce the sourness of regular kefir, resulting in a smoother, more palatable taste. Nutrient Boost: Studies have shown that second fermentation can increase the levels of certain B vitamins, such as folic acid . Enhanced Bioavailability: The process makes calcium and magnesium more bioavailable, meaning your body can absorb and utilise these essential minerals more effectively . Pre-digested Goodness: The extended fermentation process breaks down the kefir, making it easier to digest and loaded with beneficial enzymes . Product Features Drinkable Spout The easy-to-use spout allows you to pour or drink kefir directly from the jar, adding convenience to your daily routine. Travel-Friendly Design With its airtight seal, you can take your Kefirko bottle wherever you go, ensuring you never miss out on your daily dose of kefir. Convenient Storage Taking a break from kefir? Store your grains in the Kefirko jar with the lid on. It’s designed to keep your kefir fresh and ready for the next batch. Versatile Sizes The Kefirko Second Fermentation Bottle is available in two sizes: regular (848 ml/28 oz) and large (1.4 l/50 oz), catering to your specific needs. Compatibility The second fermentation lid is compatible with the Kefirko Kefir Maker and Kefirko Cheese Maker jars, available in both small (0.6 l/20 oz) and large (1.4 l/50 oz) sizes. Durable Materials Crafted from quality glass and BPA-free plastic, the Kefirko bottle and lid are safe for food contact and built to last. Usage Instructions Cleaning Before first use, wash the bottle and lid thoroughly. For deep cleaning, remove the silicone rubber from under the lid and wash with warm, soapy water. Ensure the lid is firmly attached to the jar to prevent spills. Storage Tips Always keep the bottle upright when in use. While storing kefir, burp the jar occasionally to release built-up gases and prevent bottle explosion. Fermentation Clock The Kefirko bottle comes with a fermentation clock, allowing you to track the fermentation time easily. Set the start time (with lines marking 6 AM, 12 PM, 6 PM, and 12 AM) to monitor the 24-hour primary fermentation at room temperature and the 24-hour secondary fermentation in the refrigerator. This handy feature ensures you know exactly when each batch started and how long it has been fermenting. The Kefirko Second Fermentation Bottle is more than just a jar – it’s a tool that enhances your kefir-making experience, ensuring every batch is as nutritious and delicious as possible.
