Make your own sauerkraut and vegetables - Healthy and economical!

Discover one of the oldest, easiest and healthiest ways to preserve food. Natural lactic acid fermentation allows vegetables to retain more vitamins and minerals than other methods. A German company has improved upon the traditional fermenting pots once used throughout Europe.

  • Lead-free, food-safe glaze will not retain foods' flavors and makes cleanup easy
  • Two semicircular weight stones rest on top of food and create pressure needed for proper fermentation
  • Also make excellent containers for kindling, feed, seed, plants, or decorations
  • Rustic dark brown with rounded handles
  • Made in Germany
* Note: These items require special packing and shipping to prevent breaking.

Larger crocks are available at our retail store in Kidron, Ohio. They are too large to ship, so they must be picked up at our store.

New design improves on ancient method

Discover one of the oldest, easiest and healthiest ways to preserve food! Natural lactic acid fermentation allows vegetables to retain more vitamins and minerals than other methods. A German company has improved upon the traditional fermenting pots once used throughout Europe. Their newly designed crocks can be kept in a cool place for months, letting the vegetables inside ferment naturally.

When the patented gutter around the rim is filled with water and the heavy lid placed on top, an air-tight seal forms to protect food from air and decay. (The gutter must be occasionally refilled as water evaporates.)

The entire crock has a lead-free, food-safe glaze that will not retain foods' flavors and makes cleanup easy. Each comes with two semicircular weight stones designed to rest on top of food and create pressure needed for proper fermentation.

Well-made, nearly indestructible crocks are designed for making sizeable batches of sauerkraut or preserving food for a large family or emergencies. If you don't wish to use them for food storage, they make excellent containers for kindling, firewood, animal feed, seed, planters, or simply an amazing decoration for your home.

Made in Germany.

“We could not believe how quickly our sauerkraut was ready using this crock. Using older versions that did not have the lip on top we had a layer of cabbage that we always had to throw away. We love this one, no waste, no long wait and best of all delicious sauerkraut. Our friends are always asking if we have any on hand. Thank you.”
