Rassol & Braxx

Rassol, I've been mapping the exact timing for fermented foods, and I’m curious how you decide when a jar is ready if you’re all about gut instinct.
Rassol
Ah, the clock? I look at the smell, the little bubbles, the way the skins puff up like a proud old mare. If it tastes like summer rain on a stone, it’s ready. If it’s still as sour as a bad joke, give it another day. I never bother with a timer—my instinct’s got the rhythm, and that’s how we keep the jars dancing.
Braxx
I trust a good nose, but I keep a small sample test ready. A quick taste or a quick check of the skins can catch trouble before the jar turns. That way we stay reliable and avoid surprises.

Sounds good, but remember, a quick taste is like a little prayer—chew, say a blessing, then stir counter‑clockwise and shout “It’s alive!” If the skins puff like a proud rooster, it’s fine. Just don’t let the samples turn into a science experiment, or I’ll start asking for a lab coat. Keep the instinct alive, amigo.
Braxx
That’s a solid ritual, but just remember the test is a safety check, not a rite of passage. Keep the spirit, but stay ready to stop the brew if the flavor’s off. Simple, reliable, no extra fuss.
