When I was a kid, my parents made kraut in a large wooden barrel don't know what type of wood it was, they had three wooden planks cut out to form a circle that went inside the barrel, and a giant boulder on top of the planks to keep everything down under brine. They lifted the boulder once every few days and poked the kraut with a stick to release air bubbles, did that until the kraut was done. then just kept it in a cold place all winter...
