I couldn’t stop watching I’m trying to heal my gut with good bacteria so you have everything I wanted to know about I took a nap today so I messed up my sleep have a blessed Sunday
Caren, I started my beets on Sunday. I know you mentioned testing the taste. Questions? Should I stir them up some? Mine have a little white foam on top right now. Also, if I take the lid off, do I need to refill the bubblers to the top again? This is my first time using the Bubblers. Thank you for always having wonderful videos!! 💗💗💗💗💗
Hello Cindy, yes I would shake or stir to keep the white foam from forming. Yes, you will need to refill the bubbler to the fill line if it has one or above the tube in the middle. Depending on the ambient temperature which determines rate of fermentation, I would taste the kvass after three days. Also, the bubbler will fall when fermentation is finished. That is usually the sign I use to stop fermenting. Hope this helps!
HEEELP! I just made a batch but noticed my salt has an anti caking agent in it. Will it still ferment or am I doomed? Thanks for this no nonsense., get-to-the-point video.
Sorry I don't know the final salt content but salt is necessary for fermentation. However I use a very high quality salt "Redmond", so I am not sure how that compares with processed salt. Thank you for watching!
I don't know about cinnamon but I have fermented garlic. The only factor is the salt brine % might not be high enough for garlic. Let me know if it works out. Thank you for watching!
My beet kvass always stays good for a very long time in the refrigerator. Months. I store the kvass in flip top bottles and keep my refrigerator on a colder setting. If the beet kvass has an unpleasant smell or if you see mold I would definitely toss it out. Thank you for watching.
@@texasfarmsteadliving-caren9517 Thank you for your reply. I have just started doing this sort of thing even though I have canned for years. Thanks again.
Beets will stain your cutting board. Cutting up some apples will bleach out the stain. At least the apple juice sure bleached out the grape juice stain!!

@@texasfarmsteadliving-caren9517 Yes, Thank you so Much!!!!
Question-
Why no iodine in the salt?
HEEELP! I just made a batch but noticed my salt has an anti caking agent in it. Will it still ferment or am I doomed? Thanks for this no nonsense., get-to-the-point video.
Maybe it will be ok but I am not sure. Let me know what happens.
@@texasfarmsteadliving-caren9517 Will do.
I prefer to peel them for a much less earthy taste.
Hello Bill thank you for sharing this tip. Thank you for watching!
What is the salt content of the final kvass? Could it be bad for people trying to avoid salt?
Sorry I don't know the final salt content but salt is necessary for fermentation. However I use a very high quality salt "Redmond", so I am not sure how that compares with processed salt. Thank you for watching!
if you were to add garlic cloves and cinnamon would you do it while its fermenting..?
I don't know about cinnamon but I have fermented garlic. The only factor is the salt brine % might not be high enough for garlic. Let me know if it works out. Thank you for watching!
Where do you get that pop top to know when carbon dioxide released?
Amazon. Thank you for watching!
how long will it last in the refrigerator before it goes bad?

Russian beet kvas is made with honey or sugar if you prefer and not salt.
Good to know! Thank you!
