Benefit - make natural nutrition-packed sauerkraut and pickled vegetables with this stoneware crock pot from Germany. Through the years, sauerkraut has been recognized as one of the healthiest foods and was even used on sailing ships to protect sailors from scurvy. Natural lactic acid fermentation is one of the oldest and healthiest means of food preservation. It allows natural, beneficial bacteria to perform a fermentation process in which vegetables develop a pleasantly sour taste and remain rich in vitamins and minerals. Lactic acid fermentation is the only method of preservation that retains all the natural plant ingredients while improving the quality, taste and aroma. ## Features - High quality German hand-made ceramic ~Fired at 1260 C ~Free of Lead and Cadmium - Deep gully - allows expelling of gas; prevents entry of insects, dust and air - Handles on two sides for ease of lifting and transporting; 16L Generally for 6-8 People - Beautiful speckled, earthen brown and copper coloring with smooth, shiny finish - K & K Gärtopf bodies are formed in a single piece - Thick .6" (1.5cm) base walls .4" ## Product Details - **Material:** Ceramic - **Finish Type:** Polished - **Brand:** Kerazo - **Color:** Brown - **Capacity:** 16 Liters - **Item Weight:** 26 Pounds - **Coating Description:** Ceramic - **Is Oven Safe:** Yes - **Manufacturer:** K&K Keramik - **Size:** 16 liters ## Images ![K and K Keramik German Made Fermenting Crock Pot, 16 L/4.2 gal - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41j1dK4R2TL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: do you have to fill the crock or can you do smaller batches also?** A: You do not have to fill the crock. You can make a small batch of sauerkraut in a large pot. Fermenting crocks should not be filled any fuller than 80% full anyway, to prevent water over flowing and to allow carbon dioxide to build inside the crock. The carbon dioxide replaces the oxygen and mold can not grow in a carbon dioxide enviroment. Thank you for asking VeggieSensations. See our offer for this product ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ **Q: first batch of dill pickles, they came out cloudy and rather soft, threw them out .Would like to know possible cause?? any info would help** A: I googled.Spoilage originates with faulty sanitation, bad ingredients and improper packing. A common cause of cloudy pickles is the water that comes out of the tap. Hard water is full of minerals that can make the water cloudy. This doesn't make the pickles inedible -- you can eat them despite the hard water haze in the jar. Get a clear brine by softening the water on your own. Boil the water you need for pickling for about 15 minutes. Let it sit in a container for 24 hours. Pour out the water carefully, without disturbing the sediment at the bottom of the container. Once the sediment moves, stop pouring. Use the clear water for brine and discard the sediment water.using table salt instead of canning salt, hard water, aluminum pots, yeast growth from contamination.hope it helps. **Q: what is the warranty on this crock?** A: What is the best way to clean the crock? Is it dishwasher safe? Or just under the sink with liquid soap and water? **Q: What is the diameter of the pressing stones?** A: The preeing stones are 7 3/16 when installed they come in 2 halves easy to install and great for making sauer kraut. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ So much better than a standard crock. *by D***E on September 9, 2019* Absolutely beautiful. This is so much more than functional. We wanted a crock to make wine and sauerkraut. I am so happy with this one. It comes with the weights, and lid. The top of the crock has the rim on it, so with the lid in place, you pour water around the rim, and it creates an airlock. It is expensive, but it is worth the money. It is heavy, because it is so well made, so you should place it where you want it to sit, then fill it up. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good quality *by D***O on March 27, 2022* Good for making saurkrat ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fast service good product *by S***E on October 2, 2020* Can’t wait to eat the sauerkraut!
