  1. Gary this was a forehead slapper! I've made sauerkraut many times but always in a larger container. I never thought about quart jars even though I have many of them around. This is such a smarter way of making small batches. Thanks for the post.

    By the way, how's your son doing?

    1. If your like my mom is it was made in 5 gallon batches. In a crock or bucket and then put in jars. A quart jar should hold almost a head or what's left after a meal of slaw. My son attitude has changed and been very helpful around here SO FAR .
