No fruit flies around here this time of year. One thing I did wrong with the kraut was to make it a day before I took a trip. When I returned, one qt. jar and one 1/2 gal. had heaved up into the airlock with bits of cabbage inside. I transferred the cabbage out of the qt. jar into another 1/2 gal. I am sure I have let oxygen in by letting this happen and also opening the containers to add more brine. When do you transfer to the fridge? Mine has been on the counter for 10 days and no more bubbles can be seen. I had to add brine today.
