Hii I did check ebay,ricardo earlier but somehow felt if the live grains would die from improper shipping etc..But Now as a last resort since i have no luck finding near shops in basel i will buy from ebay thankyou.

Coop started to sell Kefir

Just give your kefir grains some time to revitalize, and don't drink the kefir they produce during the first week. Buon appetito!

You can find very good kefir, smetana, tvorog, etc. (real ones - produced in Poland, Lithuania, Latvia) in Geneva "Plainpalais" shop. Bvd Pont d'Arve 28, just opposite to Uni Mail. Also the largest choice of East European Beer ever seen in Switzerland (Baltika-all numbers, Obolon, Krusovice, Ziwiec, Tyskie, Lech, Ursus, Gambrinus, Staropramen, Lobkowicz, Sibirskaja Korona, Nevskoje, Ochakovo, Kilikia, Karlovacko, many others).

Hi Mou,

I am also looking for live kefir culture in Zurich. Does anyone know where i can find some?

Kefir is delicious, but unfortunatelly, I haven't found any shop where it is selled in big bottles, they are normally quite small. I read some time ago, that it is possible to produce kefir at home, but it is necessary a special kind of mushroom. I don't know if it is possible to buy it. Does anybody have any information about it?

We just spent the weekend with friends who like to drink Kefir - they make it easily with a little of the fresh kefir mixed with milk that has been warmed. Same method as yoghurt, I think...

I'll take a look next time I'm doing the shopping tour in Zurich - I suspect it might be available at the Turkish grocery store...

Hi there!
Im looking for kefir since acouple of month, i couldnt find anyone having it( in the area of zurich at list). Its called "kefirpilz" in german. This is kinda white grains, yes, and its culturing kefir. I even ordered it from germany, but nothing ever came(((((( to start a new " family" needed just a tiny amount of this pilz. Maybe anyone has it? Please help)))

Most of the grocery stores in Germany have a far better selection of kefirs than do Swiss ones... Grab a few if you are there shopping.

typische schweiz....

saw a small carton of bio Kefir today in coop, remembered this thread, so thought i'd try it....it was indistinguishable from a set natural yoghurt....doh!

Hi, I have some kefir grains to give away (they multiply very fast). Pickup point at Brugg AG train station. Please PM if interested.

I like the vanilla flavored one.

try to find amish kefir, it is the best and the most nutritious

Hi Mou.

I have also been looking for kefir for years. I used to make Yoghurt and cheese spread from it. If anyone has the live white spongy fungus and want to give me a piece I will be Extremely grateful.

Fortunately, in Geneva we don't have these problems. Very good kefir is available in many shops, such as La Perla, Plainpalais, Pam Meyrin, Pam Servette, etc.

Haven't gotten around to it yet, but there are Kefir balls on www.ricardo.ch (auction site). I think that's what you're looking for.

I guess, this shop doesn't exist anymore. However you can find much larger (and for reasonable price) choice of Russian and Polish stuff, including lots of kefir here:
