Fermented Food & Beverages

Fermentation is the oldest form of food preservation and the easiest to start at home. A pinch of salt, some cabbage, and a crock turns into sauerkraut in two weeks. A SCOBY, sugar, and tea turn into kombucha by the gallon. Milk becomes yogurt, kefir, and cheese with nothing more than a culture and time. And every traditional fermented food you make at home delivers live probiotics your gut will thank you for.

In this section you'll find everything a fermentation kitchen needs: sauerkraut crocks (Harsch and other weighted-lid styles), fermentation weights and airlocks, kefir grains and yogurt cultures, kombucha SCOBYs and brewing bundles, vinegar mothers, cheese-making kits, and sourdough starters. We also stock the glass jars, lids, and storage that keep living cultures healthy batch after batch.

Not sure where to start? Sauerkraut is the classic gateway — a head of cabbage, a tablespoon of salt, and a jar with an airlock is all you need. Once you've nailed kraut, branch out into pickles, kombucha, and kefir. iMadeBeer ships from Terre Haute, Indiana, and yes — our team ferments at home.
