Our Growing Fermentation Business | It Takes Every Moment Of The Day | Fermented Homestead

[@SageandStoneHomestead]

It is SO incredibly exciting that Robert gets to join you soon! After the first of the year my hubby will be taking 3 day weekends every other week and 4 day weekends the other weeks. :)

[@FermentedHomestead]

That’s so awesome to hear!!!

[@lisanowakow3688]

If you keep the moldy kimchi for yourselves you could remove the mold and use it. Congratulations on 50k!

[@urwhatueat2170]

A common part of an advanced HACCP plan is a change of control process. If something out of the ordinary happens, you can document the occurrence, assess the risk, and if the risk is minimal, proceeded with production. In this scenario you would have a change of control form that would document the occurrence and be saved in your records.

[@FermentedHomestead]

Fantastic tip! I’ll look that up and see how I can implement it! Thank you 😃

[@michelle-estateoforder7808]

Your face when he said Nacho cheese is the best!

[@FermentedHomestead]

It’s so weird! I just cant

[@wildrosetreasuresva1837]

Congratulations on putting your business plan on full speed ahead! Having Robert working along side you is going to be awesome! 🎉 🎉

[@FermentedHomestead]

Thank you! It sure is!

[@OrganicMommaGA]

Congrats on 50k subs! It's proof that we enjoy your sense of humor in sharing the knowledge, as well as the ups and downs of "everything". And I for one enjoy the change of pace with your postings, regardless of who's in front of the camera. Y'all work so well together and it's lovely to see a couple who are truly working together to get this business running as smoothly as you can. Hang in there, y'all! I'm cheering for you and am excited about what these next several months brings for you!

[@FermentedHomestead]

Thank you! That means so much!

[@dianamorgan33]

Congratulations! I'd totally buy one of those Crocks, and Jun scoby😅

[@FermentedHomestead]

They’re amazing!

[@conniebranham-b9x]

I didn’t even notice your 50,000. Wow, congratulations you two‼️I believe that’s only the beginning for you. God bless exceedingly & abundantly. ❤

[@juliannahs-joy]

My friend and I made 300lbs of sauerkraut a couple of years ago. It was insane! We had a huge antique kraut cutter.

[@FermentedHomestead]

That sure is a lot!

[@libbyleatherwood6940]

I am so excited for you guys! So glad Robert is joining you full time❤️. Blessing!

[@cherylb.9766]

Congratulations on getting your business up and running. I can't wait to see everything you have for sale!

[@FermentedHomestead]

Thanks, I'm so excited to be sharing it with everyone!

[@ccfarmgirl5604]

50k! Congrats! It’s no surprise… You’re such an encouragement to others. You’re demonstrating to us all that one doesn’t have to be perfect and without “challenges” to establish and pursue our goals. Many blessings on your pursuits friend ❤️

[@FermentedHomestead]

[@diannemiller4754]

Awesome sauce having hubby with you all the time.That's so great

Congratulations Anna and Robert on 50k! Wooohooo! Always love your content. 💚

[@lindachandler2293]

I'm so happy your dream is coming to fruition.

[@FermentedHomestead]

Thank you!

[@lilliancruz7573]

Congratulations 🎉

[@beckybrown3291]

Congratulations on the 50k subs! I was wondering why it has taken this long since yours is the BEST channel on KZbin. I'm also really happy for you getting to have Robert with you full time, you two are just the cutest! I can't wait to be able to order some kraut & kombucha. (still scared of the kimchi) Many blessings 💜🙏💜

[@FermentedHomestead]

Well if it helps my kimchi is vegan so no fishy smell 😀

[@beckybrown3291]

@@FermentedHomestead I could take the fishy smell, I'm just scared of the heat! (I'm a wimp) I did see on the website that you have a No-Chi and a Some-Chi variety so I will certainly be trying those!

[@HeyHeyAlabama]

Yay Robert! I'm glad you'll be able to ship. I was just about to ask if you did.

[@elainelucier6243]

Congratulations on 50k 🎉.

[@jessicakivett7838]

The website looks awesome! Congratulations on 50k subs! Can't wait to try some of your ferments.

[@charleneputnam1217]

Hi Anna and Robert!! You guys are rocking out all that you are doing! That's a crap ton of work... 90 gal of sauerkraut!! 😳 I'm so happy Robert is joining you in the kitchen and I wish you both the very best in your new adventure. My kombucha is doing fantastic since learning from you at Keepers of the Old Ways! ❤

[@rikwen96]

50k people, wow! Congrats! You and Robert are putting so much work into this business, I hope it pays you back in multiples. I can't even imagine chopping up cabbage for 780 pounds of kraut. If you do find a way to make kimchee powder/salt, I would love to try that. Finally, I will say that you will be able to get that commercial food processor by early next year. You need that to not wear out your wrist.

[@FermentedHomestead]

I sure hope we can get it that soon! Feels like my hands and arms are wearing out with the lids and cabbage cutting 🤣

[@janebeard8902]

Congratulations on your 50k and also on your new adventure! Hope you guys have much success!❤

[@09echols]

Congratulations 🎊 on 50k. Awesome job

[@FermentedHomestead]

Thank you! ☺️

[@GoodTimesHomestead]

Nice! Sorry haven’t been watching ANY KZbin like before. Homeschool and garden and building a greenhouse (and driving to California for a month this summer) been a little busy. ❤❤❤ Congrats on the business!!!

[@susiebyler5226]

Congratulations on 50k🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@FermentedHomestead]

We’re so grateful for everyone who’s followed along! 🥰

[@lindachandler2293]

Love my fermented 'salt'. It sets on my table instead of a regular salt shaker.

[@FermentedHomestead]

I love that you use it as a table salt! I’m sure it’s much tastierb

[@Onremom227]

Can’t wait for you to be able to sell online. If you’re lucky enough to have a meat slicer maybe you can check into a vegetable hopper to save your hands from all that gripping. I myself is waiting on the cucumbers. Yummy 🤤

[@FermentedHomestead]

I am not so lucky to have one, I mean I have an attachment to a KitchenAid but nothing substantial

[@elizabethBlake-wj6wm]

Like your show.

[@gkseeton]

Watch the auction sites that don’t usually handle restaurant dispersals. My hubby got one of those professional units for far less. Nobody else bid.

[@sharonhuelsman]

Congratulations on the business and the 50k subs. I will be interested in buying your kimchi when you are able to ship! 😊

[@FermentedHomestead]

We're working hard to make it happen!

[@undorr]

Have you looked at a used restaurant supply store? Love the videos

[@FermentedHomestead]

I have a few times but haven’t come across it, it’s a pretty specialized machine that I wouldn’t expect to come across used but you never know

[@conniebranham-b9x]

Your crocs are awesome, can you tell me where you got them?

[@FermentedHomestead]

I love them! I got them from Ohio stoneware, they have an “outlet” website where they sell them individually

[@carriethompson5937]

Congrats on 50 subs and Robert joining you!!! Wishing you both all the best.

[@southloupriverhomestead4696]

Azure has 25 pound bags of Baja Gold in fine or coarse. Have you priced it there? Good Luck with the Biz

[@FermentedHomestead]

I have, I used Baja for about 4 months and I had to stop using it for the business, it was too inconsistent. I still use it for my own fermentation and cooking

[@namafarm]

Does it take some of the joy out of it, or are you finding ways to renew energy and hold onto the excitement?

[@FermentedHomestead]

Some of the more tedious things like volume and parts of the kimchi are really irritating but other than that no, I love nearly all of it. I’m learning so much and as a total fermentation nerd being able to track so much info is really fun!

[@homeschool2homestead305]

I know you said you get the crocks local, but is there a specific type of store I should look at? I just need 1 for personal use, but haven't been able to find one of that size.

[@FermentedHomestead]

I get my personal crocks from a local potter but these ones I ordered from Ohio Stoneware, if you’re kinda local you can also purchase them at Baker Creek

[@Serendipity-Divine]

Ok, I know you guys are super busy and I should shush, but I'm waiting for my sheep (new shepherdess) to produce milk for me this spring and wondering if at all possible to show dehydration of kefir for a starter or etc. I'm intimidated. Does freeze drying even work for those cultures/grains? No killing off... Hmmnnn 🤔 Could just look around online still...but something about Fermented Homestead vibes I just flow with Much Love ❤️ ~April Your channel has helped me greatly. I'm pretty vegetarian unless raise the meat on homestead, but my 14 year old is a prolific meat consumer. Wasn't working with her body until I found confidence through your channel to Carpe diem fermenting many food/beverage items for her (us) to have in abundance. Well, success. Of course animal feed is fermented now too lol. Total turn around in my confidence within capabilities in this area and in health all around for family's different needs and the animals we raise. Again, the vibes, teaching/mentoring style and comfort feeling facilitated on this channel is responsible for my growth and abundance in fermented foods, beverages, oil salves and feed for the animals. Much gratitude !! Congratulations on the KZbin subscribers achievement! ❤

[@FermentedHomestead]

I’ve been wanting to try it but we aren’t keeping kefir grains right now, our main home fridge went out and keeping the milk cold was too much for me. I would think freeze drying would give a better chance for survival

[@Serendipity-Divine]

@FermentedHomestead I think you're definitely right.

[@monahardy978]

Can low sodium fermented kraut be made?

[@FermentedHomestead]

Yes if you add a starter culture you can use half the salt, but it will ferment faster and won’t taste quite as good

[@monahardy978]

@@FermentedHomestead what's a starter culture and do u have recipes for that. Like one low sodium jar on the counter fermenting

[@silviag1547]

Are you just shipping in the states or Canada also?

[@FermentedHomestead]

Im not sure if I have approval to sell internationally

[@leahdusenberry9765]

Is this all for your personal use or are you going to be selling it

[@FermentedHomestead]

Oh no, I sell it locally. We’re hoping to be in stores and shipping by the end of the year 😀

[@cherylb.9766]

You look like you were up all night chasing pigs😂😂😅😅... get some rest gal!

[@FermentedHomestead]

Nah, pigs went to freezer camp. It’s just the business owners glow 🤣
