Harsch Gairtopf Fermenting Crock Pot - 10 Liter - ME7420 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)No doubt, this is a very nice crock. The picture on the web shows a taller crock, but the 5 liter size is actually a little wider and "squattier" than pictured. Height and width of the crock did not matter in my case.The crock I received had a few coarse pieces of pottery on the edges of the rims and on the bottom, which caused a deep scratch in my counter top. I used an emory board to smooth out the burrs, which took about thirty seconds. So just be careful when unpacking the crock...an emory board took off the rough spots very easily and did not leave any mark on the crock. This crock is heavy and extremely will packed for shipping. I really hesitated to spend $106.on one crock, but just the fact that this crock has a ring on the top which holds water to keep the contents clean has already made me a believer in it. This is a good size for one person. I would recommend a larger crock for a family.Follow up: This is a VERY heavy crock when full.
Well, after two very deep scratches on my corian counter, I am going to adhere some thick felt or cork to the bottom of the crock. I did not completely remove the burrs on the bottom of the crock and it really messed up my counter. Set it on a cork pad or heavy felt before placing it on any surface. I am loving the results of the fermenting, though!

Harsch Gairtopf Fermenting Crock Pot - 7.5 Liter - ME7428 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have had this Harsch Gairtopf Fermenting Crock Pot - 7.5 Liter - ME7428 on my wish list for years. I at long last finally made the purchase when I found it recently through an Amazon link for $119 and free shipping!!! It is the German fermentation stoneware crock by Harsch Steinzeug and has no labelling for Miracle (the sole importer) as it is shown at Amazon. (Mine just arrived from Germany. It was on back order for some time).
This fermentation crock pot is highest quality as you might expect from German craftsmen. It truly is the Mercedes Benz of stoneware fermentation pots. It is made of stoneware and covered with a lead-free glazing. It is beautiful and easy to handle, clean and use.
The unique Harsch method of fermentation is proven. The crock includes 2 stoneware weighing stones which replace the wooden board and cloth of other methods. (If you've ever done fermentation that way, you know the problems you can have). Furthermore the lid has a deep water groove which provides an airtight sealing that prevents undesired yeast from forming. Clear instructions are included as well as some basic recipes.
I purchased the 7.5 litre size. There is one smaller at 5 litres and several much larger ranging from 10 to 50 litres. I was a little afraid that I had chosen a crock much too large for just a single person like myself but I'm very glad I settled on the 7.5L. It's perfect and I'm glad I didn't choose the smaller one. I have 4 heads of organic cabbage, about 12 lbs, fermenting right now. Perfect! Considering how much I have to spend each week on store-bought organic, unpasteurized sauerkraut or other cultured vegetables ~ my Harsch crock is going to pay for itself in no time!
I love it and would buy the Harsch Gairtopf Fermenting Crock Pot - 7.5 Liter - ME7428 all over again!
