Can I use the dried fruit in the water kefir more than once?Updated a year ago
Dried fruit can be used for a few passes. After about 3-4 starts, when they look more and more used up and start to look like a zombie, you can replace them with new fruits. If you use fresh fruits for the second fermentation, it is best to take them out after 24-48 hours. The fruits are then completely "sucked dry" by the water kefir and contain hardly any valuable micronutrients.
