I got cabbage on sale cheap, and have been running amok, making all kids of odd flavors of sauerkraut (Mexican spice! Cabbage,
apple, ginger and garam masala! Planning a batch with black garlic tomorrow!) and the fridge is filling up fast. I ferment in crocks, then jar it into quart jars. Putting tattler lids on them, with the rubber ring, no heat seal, jars packed hard to the absolute top, doubt a teaspoonful more could be added.
Do I have to keep these in the fridge? I currently have a cool space, but it won't last, within a month it'll be warm in there, and it's not very temperature stable. Can these hang out at room temperature? Will they keep fermenting if I do? Will they blow up? I like where they are at flavor-wise, don't want them going any further.
Advice is appreciated!!
