| check with the kefir guy, he's the expert! Most people give their extras away or toss them. |

Here's a link: http://users.chariot.net.au/~dna/Makekefir.html
I've stored some extra grains in the freezer before...just put them in a bag with a little extra milk. I only kept them there for maybe 2 months. They actually made good kefir right away once thawed; I had thought it might take a couple of batches.
Since no one in my family will touch the kefir, I decided that whenever I had extra grains, I would eat them - no sense accumulating a bunch of grains. They taste kind of weird and rubbery, but I like them!
