Just started a batch in a gallon jar. I was gifted 10 of these gallon pickle jugs from the school ballfield concessions. Great for fermenting. Will try these on Friday. I like m ok me fairly sour so may go longer. Threw in some oak leaves from the tree out front for tannins. I intended to make two gallons and add hot peppers to do me but half the cukes frozen in my garage frig. Think I choose to replace it with a garage ready frig. Tied of losing produce and things to it. Here are a couple shots of my jar.
