Yogurt and Cheese at Home!

This is my favorite yogurt and cheese strainer—I use it all the time, and it even fits perfectly in the door of my refrigerator! 💚 With it, you can easily turn kefir and yogurt into thick, high-protein goodness by simply draining off the whey.

✨ Straining the whey not only gives you a rich, creamy texture—it also concentrates the protein, reduces lactose, and makes your kefir and yogurt even easier to digest. It’s perfect for making Greek-style yogurt, probiotic kefir cheese, and Icelandic-style skyr yogurt.

This versatile tool also lets you craft a variety of other homemade cheeses like mascarpone, ricotta, and fresh mozzarella. It’s a must-have for any cultured food kitchen!

💧 Don’t toss the whey! It’s full of probiotics and can be used in smoothies, soups, ferments, or even as a natural garden fertilizer. I’ve put together some of my favorite ideas for using extra whey here:
👉 9 Ways to Use Extra Kefir Whey

Kefirko basket-2

MESH BASKET

Mesh basket is specifically designed to enable slow straining. It’s made from nylon mesh, that separates the whey from cultured dairy. The mesh basket has a hard frame that makes it more sturdy. When cheese is ready we can turn it upside down on the plate to take out the cheese. Between batches, it can be cleaned and used again.

kefirko ring-2

RING

The ring is an essential part of Kefirko cheese maker, placed together with the Mesh basket onto the glass jar. It adds more volume to pour the kefir into the mesh basket. When the kefir strains, the amount of kefir cheese dips under the lower level of the ring. In this process, some cheese may dry on the edge of the ring which we can easily clean with the spoon.

GLASS JAR

Kefirko Glass jar is used to preserve the whey that remains when straining kefir. By lifting the ring with attached mesh basket it can easily be emptied and used again. Capacity is 1.4 liters (50 oz).

Kefirko spring

PRESSING SPRING

To make semi-hard fresh cheese use pressing spring with pressing disc.

kefirko Lid-2

LID

To cover the cheese while it’s straining. It prevents small pieces and flies to fall into the cheese and prevents the cheese from absorbing smells from other food in the fridge. When the cheese is prepared the lid is used as a tray for mesh basket.
