- This test is particularly recommended if you use your tap water for homemade milk kefir, water kefir, kombucha, sourdough.
What influence does drinking water or tap water quality have on homemade milk kefir, water kefir, kombucha, sourdough & Co.?
The quality of home-made water kefir, kombucha & Co. is of course extremely dependent on how good the main raw material of these ferments is. So how good the water is. The best cultures have a hard time surviving in contaminated or extremely chlorinated water and can either not produce the desired microorganisms at all or can produce them in poor quality. For this reason it can also happen that water kefir crystals do not multiply or the milk kefir tubers become smaller and smaller or that the kefir tubers become very slimy. If you really want to make sure that your homemade kombucha, kefir or sourdough is a safe food, then you should also be sure that the water quality is right.
Conclusion: The influence of drinking water on the quality of ferments like Kefir & Kombucha is extremely high!

Does contaminated drinking water have an impact on health and how does it affect you?
This question can be answered with a bold YES. The quality of the tap or drinking water consumed has a blatant impact on health. And not just when consumed directly. Even if the water is only used for boiling, dangers can arise. While certain germs and bacteria and the heating of water are "boiled", so to speak, heavy metals such as lead or copper are retained and can accumulate in the cooked food. Even if it is only a very small amount, the heavy metal has a creeping effect and can also be misdiagnosed. Persistent tiredness, frequent headaches and fatigue may be signs of this. You will receive more detailed information on this theme together with the results of your water analysis.
If your drinking water flows through lead pipes, the limits for heavy metals set by the German Drinking Water Ordinance are very likely to be exceeded. In such a case, there is a serious risk to health, which means that further measures, including the modernization of the water installation, are required.
Tip: If you buy a house, you should definitely have the drinking water checked beforehand. Then you know and you can calculate the corresponding costs and start a new negotiation with the seller.
