BE SURE TO PIN FOR LATER

I have been fermenting for many years. Maybe you are like me and daily “burping” your ferment jars. You live in fear that you will forget about them and boom! Big mess. However, the fermentools starter kit has changed the way I ferment. It is a simple and safe way to ‘forget” about your ferment and go on with your busy schedule.
What is included in the Fermentool Starter Kit?
- 1 Stainless Steel Lid – Made from 304 surgical stainless steel, the corrosion-resistant lid will last a lifetime.
- A Glass Fermentation Weight – Made to fit inside your standard widemouthed Mason jar perfectly and won’t react with your food like other weights on the market.
- 1 Air Lock.
- 2 Rubber Stoppers (1 with a hole for airlock – 1 solid).
- 1 Rubber Canning Gasket.
- Himalayan Powdered Salt – Our ancient Himalayan sea salt has over 80 trace minerals and is ground fine enough to easily mix with cold water.
- Beautiful Instruction Guide and Basic Sauerkraut recipe.
I was impressed with the high quality of each piece of the starter kit.

Why Fermentation?
- It’s easy.
- It saves money.
- The health benefits of fermented food are amazing.
- It’s fun!
How to make Simple Sauerkraut?
Making sauerkraut is so easy. I used the recipe that came with my starter kit. The most difficult step is figuring out the measurements to make the brine solution. However, there is a chart on Fermentool’s website. There are also many recipes that variations to the basic sauerkraut recipe. I started with the basic recipe, but this summer when my garden is producing, I plan to try many other fermenting recipes.

What else could you ferment using the starter kit?
The options are really endless to what you can ferment. Here is a small sample of vegetables.
- pickles
- peppers
- garlic
- carrots
- broccoli
- asparagus
- beets
- zucchini
- sweet potato
You can also ferment fruits, beverages, dairy, grains. As I said, the possibilities are almost endless. Fermentools has a wonderful bank of recipes on their site. I can’t wait try more recipes when my garden starts producing. Your fermentools starter kit will never sit idle in the cupboard. In fact, you will probably want to purchase additional kits so you can have many things fermenting at once!
What were the results of our fermentools Starter Kit?

I love cabbage and I love sauerkraut. My sauerkraut turned out great. I loved checking on it and watching the bubbles form in the jar. I tasted it after about 3 days and it needed more time. After 3 more days, I tested again and decided to end the ferment and put it in the refrigerator. Looking back, I wish I would have let it ferment a few more days because I like my sauerkraut strong and sour. It must be my German heritage. However, I gobbled up the first batch and look forward to starting a new batch.
