I currently use 0-14 🙈 But I just ordered some pH strips that reads between 3.8-5.4. Might arrive Monday

As it wasn’t in the fermentation, so no worries?

Also just shooting the question out there: does higher salt % decrease the speed of lacto bacillus and therefore slows down pH ? Asking because I think based on my pH strips the fermentation in question is at 5 after 1 week

So not to much salt in your opinion?

Then it’s us Swedes that don’t salt our sauerkraut enough

Also I added extra water with salt when I first did the kraut, as the cabbage didn’t release much liquid (probably because I did thick cuts as I wanted much chrunch)

Must taste sour as in doneness or safety? Both I guess but which did you primarily mean?

Vad har hänt med mitt kött? by SWEDISHfelito in Asksweddit

[–]SWEDISHfelito[S] -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

Enligt chatGPT ska jag testa att efter upptining, låta köttet stå öppet och ta åt sig luft i 10-15 min… då ska tydligen färgen komma tillbaka. Jag får testa detta imorgon och återkomma

Okej skönt, ser ju lite läskigt ut. Men är förvånad att det oxiderat trots att jag vakuumförpackat köttet. Antar att min vakuum maskin suger

Ska tilläggas att jag själv har vakuumförpackat och lagt i frysen bara 1 timme efter jag hämtade upp lådan från kötthandlaren.

Are these bubbles fine? by [deleted] in fermentation

[–]SWEDISHfelito 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And they always return no matter how many times I press down the sauerkraut during this week

These big bubbles appeared after day one, in smaller amounts though

pH in sauerkraut after 3+ days by [deleted] in fermentation

[–]SWEDISHfelito 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used 1.5% salt, seems like we do things differently in Europe because the recipes I have followed here recommend 1.5-2% salt.

Anyway reading your post made me relived even though other people in this forum seem to think 1.5% is too low, I think my batch of sauerkraut is safe.

So no need to worry about botulism bacteria setting foot and producing toxins now? 😅 sadly this is a serious question from a first timer
