I might make sauerkraut again this fall and have been looking on line at porcelain fermenting posts. Kinda expensive! Then I read an article where the author suggested checking out slow cookers or roaster ovens at yard sales and thrift stores. As long as the porcelain liner isn't cracked or chipped, it can be used as a fermenting pot to make sauerkraut, pickles, kimchi or some other food that requires fermentation.

1. I have no desire to ferment anything, but

that is a great idea. You are right that fermenting pots are really pricey, and I see things at yard sales all the time that would fit your bill. Good catch.
