Another Batch

15 lbs kraut.
1.5 days,temp just over 80F in house



Kraut temp 72F,about the highest temp you want.Too low takes months,too high will not be as good as a different bacteria is favored.

Good explanation on how it ferments at link

'The best quality sauerkraut is produced at 65-72° F (18-22° C) temperatures.

Below 45.5° F (7.5° C) fermentation time is up to 6 months.
At 65° F (18° C) fermentation time is 20 days.
At 90-96° F (32-36° C) fermentation time is 10 days.'
