If i order this kefir starter culture, it will get frozen during shipping. will that affect it's effectiveness in any way?

I think they are originally freeze-dried to preserve them, but they don't come "frozen". This is a dried powder that you add to milk to reconstitute and grow it. A small amount from each package can be reused a few times to make more, but after ~3 times (per package), it becomes much less effective. It is not the same as a live culture that comes shipped with a small amount of fluid in it to keep it from drying out. Also, the powdered kefir does not contain near as many different species of bacteria as the live cultures do, but they are still better for you than regular yogurt.

Can I stir into milk and leave on counter?

I have had great success by using the following method: Heat a quart of milk until it just begins to boil (to kill off any competing bacteria), turn off and let it cool to just above room temperature (about 90 degF). Then add the culture, stir well and allow to sit covered with a cloth or paper coffee filter (to keep out dust, etc., for several hours or overnight. Refrigerate after it becomes thick and bubbly. I started my culture using one packet a year ago. By saving about 1/4 cup from each batch and add it to the new batch. This culture is much more convenient than straining out grains each day and the result is delicious. Highly recommended!

how many grams or ounces is each of 3 kefir?

1 sachet makes 1 Litre of Kefir and then you can reculture more batches using every single spoon from the first batch. The net amount of starter in the sachet is written on the back of the sachet, so please just check the relevant image :)

I'm new to Kefir making. Does this contain the 'grains' needed or just probiotics? Thank you.

Hello The starter is a freeze-dried type and contains a blend of freeze-dried bacteria and yeast. Please find more info here: https://www.yogurtathome.com/faq
