Bought a $60 fermenting crock on a whim and it fixed my mold problem
I kept getting kahm yeast and fuzzy mold on my sauerkraut in mason jars, like 3 batches in a row got tossed. So I dropped $60 on a German-style water seal crock from a shop in Ann Arbor and the difference is wild, the airlock keeps everything out and my cabbage has stayed clean for 5 batches now. Only thing is I can't watch it bubble like I could with the jar, which is kind of a bummer. Anyone else switch to a crock and miss seeing the action?

Oh man, I feel this. I once stared at my crock for like ten minutes waiting for something to happen before I remembered there's literally a lid in the way. Guess I'll just have to trust the cabbage and find a new hobby.
