Review on 🥦 Humble House SAUERKROCK Fermentation Crock with Glazed Weights and Cabbage Tamper - 2 Liter (0.5 Gallon) German-Style Water Sealed Jar in Traditional Brown for Fermenting Sauerkraut, Kimchi, and Pickles by Joyce Keesling

I bought this two liter fermenting kettle in early January 2021 and immediately made a batch of 01/08/21 sauerkraut: cabbage, onion, Peppercorns, bay leaf and salt for making brine. She poured sauerkraut into glasses on 01/30/21. When I tasted kale I have to say it was the best thing I've ever eaten! This is an easy to use system. The pitcher comes with a weight to keep the cabbage under the brine (I also used some whole cabbage leaves to keep the pieces from floating to the top, which worked well with the weight). The lid is an "automatic burping system" that releases CO2 from the enzyme. I filled the canal with spring water every day and the fermentation was flawless. Overall this is an excellent fermentation system and jug and I have bought a five liter jug and will be trying it out soon! The first picture shows the pot, lid and weights, but a wooden tamper is also included which is very helpful for tamping down the herb when loading the pot. Two cans of sauerkraut are also shown: spicy and delicious! My only quibble is that there are several pits on the surface of the shard, about a dozen on the outside and a few tiny pits on the inside. It didn't seem to affect shard performance, but I'll keep an eye on it. The five-litre jug had none of these flaws, so this might not be a common problem. The jug arrived well packaged and undamaged and is a beautiful piece of stoneware in itself. I will be buying more soon!
