Temperature affects the speed of fermentation. Between 60Â°F and 65Â°F, it will take 6 weeks to make sauerkraut. The ideal temperature is between 70Â°F and 75Â°F where it will ferment properly in 3 to 4 weeks.
Ferment the cabbage for 3 to 10 days: As it's fermenting, keep the sauerkraut away from direct sunlight and at a cool room temperature â ideally 65Â°F to 75Â°F. Check it daily and press it down if the cabbage is floating above the liquid.tore sauerkraut for several months: This sauerkraut is a fermented product so it will keep for at least two months and often longer if kept refrigerated. As long as it still tastes and smells good to eat, it will be. If you like, you can transfer the sauerkraut to a smaller container for longer storage.
