I didn't notice any problem from the gas buildup, but I did burp it about once a month because the bag was being slowly pushed up. Didn't get sick and it was quite tasty. :)
fresh homade Sauerkraut contain probiotics and vitamin C to keep away scurvy in rough times. Looks pretty easy I will give it a try looks a little bit like how Alton Brown does dill pickles on the show Good Eats come to think of it you look a little like him : ) I have found that a good pickeling container is the crock if your remove it from the crockpot and they are cheap from 2nd hand stores . Pickeling crocks go for min $30 a piece
Thanks Trish! That is a good idea, using crock pot crocks from thrift stores. I'm trying to do everything as simply and cheaply as I can.
Yes, lots of vitamin C in sauerkraut! They used it in seafaring days for scurvy. Also protects against fulminating scurvy - the end result of influenza.
ur the best!!!!!!!!!!!! so detailed so perfect .. thank you

If it's airtight, wouldn't the gasses get trapped and isn't that a bad thing? Aren't you supposed to let it breathe?

I don't see par2 of your video & how long do you let it sit in the glass jars before its ready to eat ?
MyREDTAIL 2 years ago
Leave it sit a month at least. Then taste it periodically. Good luck!

Hey, does orange juice protect you from scurvy? I mean, orange juice has a lot of vitamin C right?

2 questions
1:can you make sauerkraut with purple cabbage
2:where did you get those big ass clear jars those are nice
midgetsarescary 2 years ago
1: Yes, Most veggies can be preserved this way Google Lacto Fermentation
It's been used for millenia to preserve
2: Walmart, Kitchen Section. Cheap.
mike29571 2 years ago
damn that was fast thanks for the quick reply brother!
so the purple cabbage would give you the same anti fulminating scurvy properties right ?
midgetsarescary 2 years ago
Yes, what can I say I'm prompt!
Red / Purple Cabbage actually has MORE Vitamin C.
Also, the darker the cabbage the more lactobacteria, typically.
So...yeah, purple works. lol

Best of luck in your fermenting!
