Sauerkraut

[bill ace 350]

2329g of sliced cabbage. Will add and massage in 2% pickling salt, then cover bucket with lid and airlock.

Nice! Motivational as well, been wanting to do a batch myself. Will it need to be weighed down? I use a Korean vessel with a lid that has a grommet type silicone edge around it that allows you to push it under the liquid and it stays there, with an air release hole as well.

Held under liquid with large cabbage leaves and a heavy plate.

I'm in...I need to make some.

I use mason jars to make mine. I bought wide mouth lids with grommets and an air lock. I also bought glass weights to keep the cabbage under the liquid. Nothing like fresh, homemade sauerkraut.

They work well. I have the round one. Works for pickles too.

Looks like you got it going on there.

Pretty soon you need beer and knackwurst and you are set!

Cheers!

Looks great! I’m about to start on a batch as well this week. I will be doing whole head for cabbage rolls. I like to let mine soak for a minimum of 30 days which make the leaves great for cabbage rolls.
