Activity Centres Fitzroy North

Milk kefir is well known as one of the best natural gut lovers out there. We will show you how to easily incorporate this little SCOBY into your daily routine and how to get it into the guts of people you love. We'll start with the basics, you'll meet your new SCOBY- make some milk kefir and then move onto flavouring, making butter, labneh, catching the whey and then making a naturally fizzy and gut-loving soda. You'll go home with:


A milk kefir SCOBY in a jar and ready to feed when you get home
A whey soda flavoured with fresh fruit of your choice to finish fermenting at home
Milk kefir cultured butter
A beautifully illustrated recipe card to help remind you


We'll enjoy flavoured milk kefir and labneh throughout the morning.

Previously named the '4K workshop - Kraut, Kefir, Kimchi & Kvass', this is a Fermenting ‘101’ class, where you will learn about salt, different preserving techniques, two of the most popular cabbage recipes (Kraut & Kimchi), a Wild Drink (Kvass), and all about SCOBY’s (Symbiotic Cultures of Bacteria & Yeasts) with a focus on Milk Kefir. This is A LOT.
Whether you are a beginner or someone who has been fermenting for a while this is bound to fill you up. You will come away with a head full of ideas, a big bag of goodies to enjoy straight away and continue to ferment as well as a solid base for exploring further.
You will take home everything you make during the course; a jar of kimchi, sauerkraut, milk kefir with SCOBY, and a jar of Kvass - including jars and airlocks for fermenting at home... and of course the recipes so you can do it again. Light fermenty food and drinks provided.
Location: The Fermentary at Pickwick House - 394 Queens Parade, Fitzroy North
We'll enjoy flavoured milk kefir, drinks and bites throughout the workshop.
