Can I do these pickling onions in 2%salt brine for a lacto style fermentation?

@Zambezi Special
I'll consult Dr Google but thought I'd put it out there.
Cheers.
Koomboocha is still brewed weekly just don't post pics it's boring.
Sorry to hear @Yooper
Hope you are better now?
Looking great Sunfire.Finished up the hot sauce with hatch chili's. The level of spice is perfect. It came out a little too sweet and briny, I'll omit the carrots and up the garlic next time. Now I'm doing some dill veggies; carrots, celery, and some cucumbers from the garden

There's a disc shaped glass weight in there on top of the veggies. Came with the jar in a fermentation kitLooking great Sunfire.
I think my current batch of Kraut is infected it's got a white lacto film on top and smells wrong
My onions I think are the same...
Will post a pic later
Well how do you keep them veggies under the liquid line Sunfire96?
Or does using the airlock mitigate that problem somehow?
Ok I gotta get one of them thanks.There's a disc shaped glass weight in there on top of the veggies. Came with the jar in a fermentation kit

That's what I've been doing but I find the contents manages to break free around the edges of the bag.I normally use a plastic bag, filled with roughly the same brine solution as I'm aiming for in the pickle.
Even if it breaks, the salt percentage will stay the same![]()
Bigger bag, more liquidThat's what I've been doing but I find the contents manages to break free around the edges of the bag.
How's this for quick fermentation on my latest batch of kraut!Experimental batch of pawpaw chili

Serious?
I grew up on this stuff as we all liked it and it was dirt cheap.
Genwrally eaten mashed in with potatoes and eaten with smoked sausage (rookworst) and kassler or something likewise
(And cook your potatoes seperate as they will never get soft if you cook the lit together. Standard rookie mistake)
Na whole in a homebrewers fermenter.Fermenting a whole cabbage sound kind of cool
Do you know if she put in a bag or in a bowl or so?
I got a feeling I just gotta try this!
