How to store knf ferments
Hi all!
Im not to sure of this and can't find any clear evidence on how to store your knf ferments? Like the final product of FFJ and all the other solutions?
Thanks in advance

After pouring them off, supersaturate them, and store them in a clean container in a cool place out of the sun.

Drake's library gives clear steps for storing FFJ and FPJ.
- Pour off the liquid into a breathable container. Keep it out of direct sun, where the temperature stays steady. (KNF Demystified, p. 37)
- Use glass or food-grade PE plastic. The microbes stay alive and keep making gas, so keep the lid loose. (Student's Manual, Basic Course, p. 34)
- Keep each batch separate. Combine them only when you mix a solution for immediate use. (Student's Manual, Basic Course, p. 34)
- For long storage, add brown sugar equal in weight to the FPJ. This stops it from souring. (Student's Manual, Basic Course, p. 34)
- Cover the mouth with breathable cloth and store in a cool place. (Student's Manual, Basic Course, p. 34)
The library gives no storage steps for LAB or the other solutions.
