  1. I don't know mate, Ive never heard of a starter culture for sauerkraut. Usually it's just pounded to juice it up a bit, salted, weighed down and left in the cool dark til it's ready.

    I guess the starter culture would give the lactobacillus a headstart on any other organisms that might spoil it. I think it's pretty important to keep air out of the fermentation pot. Traditionally water is poured over the lids which are specially shaped to stop air getting in.

  2. Dchiw you finally get around to knock on the door of the house with the gigantic scopulicola in the front yard, only to find that the house has been demolished when you arrive...on the upside I did score a few cuts of an equador pink brugmansia from another nice lady nearby.
