Sauerkraut and Mason jars.

Planet X

I’m sure some people on here make the above. Been to Berlin twice in the last few years and really like sauerkraut, extremely healthy etc etc.

For two people, what size Mason jars am I looking at? Assuming one head of cabbage. One litre? Want to buy two, so when one is finishing up the other is fermented.

Woodies, B &Q?

Cheers.

edit. I see Woodies do them, sorted.

Get kilner jars, some of the cheaper ones don't have a great seal.

Be careful, once you make Sauerkraut you'll become addicted and start to delve more deeply into fermented foods, soon you'll be researching the best kimchi recipes. Don't say you weren't warned.

I enjoy kimchi. Never fermented it…… Worked with a bunch of Koreans abroad many moons ago. Good Kimchi and Korean food.

I’m looking for pros and cons re: Kilner or Mason jars? Or am I over thinking it 😀?

I use Kilner and fermentation weights

Saw two YT videos. One German girl and one Yank. Great to see different approaches/ ideas re: flavourings etc. I’m up for it now 😀. Woodies here I come.

Gloomtastic!

I’ve only ever seen Kilner jars in Ireland. Woodies have them and Nisbets. I get the rubber seal 500g ones. Easier to store in the fridge.

Straight in at the deep end, 4 litre. Water sealed.
