Kraut looks good. MrT's process is my go to also, good stuff.
Im on this.... Been on the road doing trade shows since Wednesday. But doing some USDA studying too. When I get Home i'll be a cabbage chopping fool. B
Great post Case. I've always been curious about making 'kraut, so this has been real interesting for me. So Thank You.
One question that has been bothering me. If you got your wife to bring home 6 pounds of cabbage, how did you end up with 9 pounds after shredding it???

My crock came in while I was at the home office in NY. (Thanks Amazon) I'll be a cabbage chopping fool this weekend. Great post Case. Very motivational. B
My plan is to chop cabbage tomorrow and use that new cook you inspired me to buy. bDown to two jars! Going to have to make more as I want these two jars to age longer. Kraut just keeps getting better every day!

Ok, you guys got me itching to give this a try. I'm the only one here that will eat the stuff, so small batches (about 1#) are in order. I have questions.
what temp needs to be maintained during fermentation ? Some of the web recipes say you can just keep it at room temp and move to fridge when done.Fridge will halt or slow the process.
Secondly how big a jar will I need for such a small batch ? The cabbage at my store avg about 1 1/2 lbs, so I'm guessing a little over a pound cored
Like Case said.For that small a pint jar... I know it sounds like a hunch but the minimum I'd do is 6 pounds. That would give you 2-2 1/2 quarts finished product.
