What do you use for your fermentation vessel? I've been sticking with the Chinese ones with a water lip (guessing other cultures have something similar), along with ceramic weight stones. I'd have guessed that the acidity of the brine would be bad for metal plates, but apparently not?

I start the fermentation in a steel pot. Usually enamelled or inox steel. The cabbage stays there for just three days, not enough time to leech anything from the steel in my experience. Yesterday I transferred the cabbage to glass jars and moved them into cold storage (my balcony).
