FERMENTATION ROUND 2

So everyone,

Today is day 4 of my second round of fermentation.  Tomorrow when presented in class, it will will be day 5 for tasting!

I WILL NOT BE TASTING THE SAUERKRAUT! THERE IS JUST SOMETHING ABOUT IT THAT GIVES ME THE HEEBIE JEEBIES!

This time around, I did things differently.  When first packing my sauerkraut into a mason jar , I didn't pour out some much excess water.  I also did not use the small jar with the marbles in it as an anchor inside the mason jar.  This method seemed to work better for me.

A big change to note in the first and second time the fermentation was done is that the first time it was very dry on top, and most of the moisture was in the middle. Also there was not white foamy stuff on top of the kraut.

The second time around however, more moisture, and I had to scrape of top layers, because of the white foam that begin to form on top!

I hope everyone enjoys the SAUERKRAUT
