Question 1

What exactly is kefir?

Accepted Answer

Kefir is a naturally fermented milk drink made by fermenting milk with kefir grains — a living community of bacteria, yeasts and other microorganisms. The fermentation gives kefir its distinctive creamy texture, gentle tang and naturally cultured character. Unlike yoghurt, which is typically made with a smaller number of selected bacterial cultures, traditional kefir has a more diverse microbial community. In simple terms: milk, kefir grains, time — and fermentation does the rest.

Question 2

What does LP Kefir taste like?

Accepted Answer

LP Kefir is creamy, refreshing and naturally tangy, with a gentle cultured flavour. It's not quite milk, and it's not quite yoghurt — think somewhere deliciously in between, but with a character of its own. Because LP Kefir is a living ferment, its flavour can evolve naturally over time. A freshly made bottle will generally be milder and smoother, while a more mature bottle may develop a little more tang. That's part of what makes kefir kefir.

Question 3

Why does kefir sometimes separate?

Accepted Answer

That's completely natural. As kefir continues to mature, the milk proteins can gradually separate from the whey, creating a thicker layer or a little liquid at the top. Nothing is wrong with your kefir. Just give the bottle a gentle swirl before pouring to bring it back together. You may notice more separation as the kefir becomes more mature and tangy. If you notice an unusual colour, smell or appearance, don't consume it — just get in touch with us.

Question 4

Why should I open the bottle slowly?

Accepted Answer

Kefir is a living ferment, and fermentation can naturally produce a little gas inside the bottle. Keep the bottle upright, take it to the sink, and slowly twist the cap open to release any pressure before opening fully. A little fizz or pressure is perfectly normal. Open slowly. Swirl gently. Enjoy chilled.

Question 5

How should I store LP Kefir?

Accepted Answer

Keep LP Kefir refrigerated. Store it in the fridge as soon as you receive it and keep it chilled until you're ready to enjoy it. For the best experience, serve it straight from the fridge. Because LP Kefir is a living ferment, keeping it properly chilled also helps slow down further fermentation and flavour development. Keep cold. Open slowly. Enjoy fresh.

Question 6

How long does LP Kefir last?

Accepted Answer

LP Kefir is made fresh in small batches and should always be kept refrigerated. Because it's a living ferment, its flavour and texture can naturally evolve over time — usually becoming more tangy as it matures. Plain Kefir: best enjoyed within 5 days of packing. Flavoured Kefir: best enjoyed within 3 days of packing. Packing Date is shown on your bottle. For the best experience, keep your kefir chilled and enjoy it fresh. If you're unsure about a bottle, or notice anything unusual about its colour, smell or appearance, please don't consume it — get in touch with us instead.

Question 7

How much kefir should I drink when starting?

Accepted Answer

If you're new to kefir, start small — around 50ml a day is a good place to begin. Give your body some time to get accustomed to it, then gradually increase the amount as you feel comfortable. There's no need to rush. Start small. Listen to your body. Build your routine. For a more detailed guide, see New to Kefir? in How to Enjoy.

Question 8

What's the difference between TRY, STOCK-UP and COMMIT?

Accepted Answer

TRY is for discovering LP Kefir — one 250ml bottle to see how you like it. STOCK-UP is for keeping more kefir on hand — 1 litre in one bottle, to enjoy at your own pace. COMMIT is for making kefir part of your routine — smaller quantities delivered regularly as part of a 21-Day (3-week) kefir journey. Each option is designed for a different way of enjoying LP Kefir. Try it. Stock it. Make it a routine.

Question 9

Why does COMMIT cost less per bottle?

Accepted Answer

Because COMMIT is a 21-Day (3-week) commitment. By committing upfront to a regular kefir routine, you help us plan our batches, bottles and deliveries more efficiently. We pass some of that efficiency back to you through a lower price per bottle. And because you're receiving smaller quantities regularly, you're also getting fresh kefir more often rather than keeping a large quantity in your fridge. A little more commitment. A little more value. A fresher routine.

Question 10

How does the 21-Day Journey work?

Accepted Answer

COMMIT is a 21-Day (3-week) kefir journey designed to help you make kefir part of your regular routine. Choose the rhythm that suits you: Option A — 4 × 250ml per week, delivered Wednesday + Saturday. Option B — 6 × 250ml per week, delivered Monday + Wednesday + Saturday. You make one upfront payment for the full 21 days, and LP takes care of the rest — freshly made kefir, delivered according to your chosen schedule. At the end of the 21 days, you can decide whether you'd like to continue your kefir routine. No automatic renewal. No long-term commitment. Just 21 days to find your rhythm.

Question 11

How does bottle return work?

Accepted Answer

Our kefir bottles are reusable, so we'd love to get them back into circulation. Simply return your empty LP bottles with your next order, and we'll take care of the rest. For COMMIT customers, bottles can be collected with your next scheduled delivery. Please keep the bottles rinsed and intact, with their caps. Drink. Return. Reuse.

Question 12

How do I order?

Accepted Answer

Choose the option that suits you — TRY, STOCK-UP or COMMIT — and tap the relevant order button. You'll be taken to WhatsApp, where we'll confirm your order, delivery day and payment details. For COMMIT, you'll make one upfront payment for your complete 21-Day Journey. Simple. Human. Direct.
