Just salted and set up 7 quarts of kraut using Bob's method. They're
sitting in the dark in the pantry now with the lids loosely fastened.
The ten lbs of cabbage was three heads out of our garden with the heart
(core) removed. We ate the hearts, even the dog likes them. Only time
will tell.

Didn't have a clean hammer handle so cut a 18 inch piece of new one-inch
quarter round, whittled a handle on one end and used that to compress
the cabbage. Roughly two and one-half quarts per head.
