Fermentation pots provide the perfect anaerobic environment. Symbiota's ceramic fermentation pots keep the internal temperature stable for the probiotic bacteria to thrive, unlike glass which is exposed to light and experiences temperature swings.
Symbiota's fermenting crocks have been specifically designed to not only be the most beautiful pots on the market but also functional and easy to clean.
Our fermentation crocks are ideal for fermenting kimchi, sauerkraut, fermented vegetables or preserving food.
Fermented foods are an important part of supporting gut health, and immune systems, and mental health.

The 4.5L Fermentation pot makes approximately 4kgs of fermented produce and is best suited to a family of 3-4 eaters or 2 adults that do not want to be fermenting too regularly. Bare in mind that each cycle of sauerkraut ferment should be fermented for at least 3 weeks for the best diversity and concentration of probiotic bacteria.
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. If you would like to discuss this, feel free to give us a call and we can support you in finding which crock is best for your needs.
