Why should I ferment my own foods?

The fermentation of food is thousands of years old and has been known by all ethnicities around the globe. Preserving foods through the process of fermentation has allowed people to preserve and consume nutrient-dense foods throughout famines, wars, and seasons. 

Fermenting foods allows us to connect to traditional knowledge, family, nature, and foods symbiotically.

What is the best method to ferment my own food?

Fermentation pots are the most effective way to make your own probiotic-rich foods through fermentation.

The ceramic fermenting pots keep the environment stable, perfect for those long ferments. The thick ceramic minimizes temperature swings and offers a dark environment for the probiotic bacteria to thrive, making potent and superior probiotic-rich ferments. No need to hide your fermentation pot in the cupboard. Symbiota offer custom-designed, beautifully aesthetic, and functional pots that complement any kitchen. 

Ideal for the fermentation of Kimichi, sauerkraut, fermented vegetables or preserving food. 

Which size pot best fits my needs?

The 7L Fermentation pot makes approximately 6-7kgs of fermented produce. 

Below is a conversion of approximately how much the pots ferment

2L ferments 1.8 - 2kgs of produce

4.5L ferments 4 - 4.5kgs of produce

7L ferments 6 - 7kgs of produce

Ideally, most sauerkrauts should be fermented at a lower temperature (18-20 degrees celsius) for at least 3 weeks for the best probiotic diversity and content. If you are going to be eating 1.5kg+ of sauerkraut per month or you do not want to be fermenting too frequently it would be better to get the 4.5L pot. If you are a gardener or a large family and looking to preserve produce, you would likely consider the 7L fermentation crock.
