I wonder how many more mistakes I'll make before learning. I am planning to use it often, so i guess i'll have to learn eventually. You are right about getting 2, would be good to have one dedicated to kimchi only, will take another two years for me to get there. So, you'll be making 5 liters of poblano hot sauce? Hope it comes out amazing!

How on earth did you get three heads of cabbage in a 1.3 gallon container?
If the cabbage is fresh and you shred it and put it in a bowl with the required amount of salt.
Then let it set for awhile it should make a ton of water.
After that it needs to be tamped down hard with a big dowel to crush up the cabbage and release water.
Any water you put in it should be at least two tablespoons per quart or even three.
