Fermentation Science: pH, Salt & Safety Quick-Start Guide

This quick-start guide of about 1,800 words covers Fermentation Science: pH, Salt & Safety in a short, practical form. It begins with why the method works and a list of what you'll need. The first 4 of its 8 numbered steps are: weigh your produce and calculate salt by weight, not volume; confirm which calculation method applies — dry-salted or brine-salted; adjust upward for high-water vegetables; set up your fermentation space within the optimal temperature range: roughly 65-70°F (18-21°C). It ends with fixes for when something goes wrong, what to try once you have the basics, and where to go from here. It opens in any web browser on a phone, tablet or computer.
