Fermentation Crock 1/2 Gallon - Sauerkraut Crock with Lid, Weights & Pounder - Ceramic Fermenting Crock Kit for Pickling Cabbage Kimchi Vegetables - 2 Liter Fermentation Jar - Stoneware Pickle Pot

I successfully made delicious sauerkraut in this crock. It is durable, easy to clean (although a little on the heavy side) and does exactly what it is supposed to do. Best of all, it's priced well below many other crocks on the market.

Easy directions. Sauerkraut ready in five days loved the crispy texture.

Works great and I am very happy with the purchase

This Crock looks to be just the right size for small batch Vegetable fermentation (like for one/two servings - 1/2 of a large head of cabbage).So far so good (it's only been a few days since I loaded it up.

Sleek, nicely designed, easy to use, can't wait for the end results.

Do you need a crock to make sauerkraut or ferment other veggies? Nope. I made a batch of sauerkraut in a 2.7 liter pyrex bowl, a small plate & bowl for keeping it all submerged and a cup towel to keep it covered.While sauerkraut fermented, I decided I'd like a vessel devoted to the task. I looked through the crocks available at amazon and decided on this one due to its small size.I read all reviews on the crock when deciding & was a little concerned with the 1 & 2 star reviews. I don't remember them all but most were concerned with quality of the vessel. Mine is very well made. In fact the design, while old, is very clever. There is a moat on the top of the crock where the top fits. Keep the moat filled with water and your veggies will gas off and will be protected from possible outside contamination. Gases from inside bubble out. Outside contaminates cant get in. Water in the moat will evaporate, so you'll need to keep an eye on it.The crock holds 2 liters of product with room for the weigh down stones.I've currently got a batch of kimchee fermenting. It's been working for 5 days now and all is well. :)This little crock will produce enough product to fill just about 2 large Mason jars. So, if you are like me and are not looking for a huge crock for a bumper crop of cabbage from the garden, but just want to keep fermented veggies in the 'fridge and you want to experiment with different types of fermented veggies then this little crock is what you're looking for.A note to those of you who gave the crock a one star review due to damage: I've shopped amazon since it was just a bookstore. They have one of the easiest and most liberal return policies I've ever seen. Put it in the box, print off the label, tape the label on the box, drop the box off at a ups store and return it for a new one. Simple as that. ;)

Item arrived as described. It's a beautiful addition to our kitchen!

It’s a very wonderful gift that is loved.
