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.

That's it 3 days have past, the kraut tastes ready to me, going to jar and move all to the fridge! Extra rocks did the job submerging all cabbage, supplementing my lousy crushing / stumping. What i love about this crock it keeps the smell inside. No one is complaining! (until I open it) And the stones! Now i want to use it all the time.
