I only make kefir about once or twice a week -- the rest of the time the grains are stored in milk in the fridge. Sometimes when a jar is empty I simply add more milk, shake and ferment till done and it turns out excellent. Occasionally I do a back to back ferment to strengthen the grains, but I still have about the same amount of actual grains I started with, perhaps a little more -- but it's not overwhelming.

So it's a better product than dried and I don't have to keep ordering more or fretting about storing powdered culture. Kefir should be similar to a sourdough culture in resiliency.
