Rhythm Fermenting
➔ High temp fermentation (from 37.4℉/3℃ to max 64.4℉/18℃)
This mode is used to tastily ferment kimchi by changing the storage temperature.
Underground Fermenting
➔ Low temp fermentation (from 37.4℉/3℃ to max 41℉/5℃)
In the old days, kimchi was stored in earthenware crocks and buried underground from mid-winter to early spring.
Inspired by the traditional method, “Underground Fermenting” is a mode that changes the storage temperature in a similar pattern to how the temperature underground changes during the winter,
thereby creating a deeply flavorful taste in kimchi.

Kimchi ripening process
1. Brining the cabbage draws its water content out. The remaining water in the cabbage becomes part of kimchi juice.
2. Kimchi becomes light after dehydration, and will float on top of kimchi juice.
3. Kimchi is fermented in its juice.
4. During the fermenting process, kimchi’s unique taste and flavor are created.
CO2 released during the process makes kimchi crunchy and fresh.
When CO2 gas bubbles are generated during the fermentation process, some use the expression ‘kimchi becoming fizzy’, but it is normal to see this.

Underground Fermenting (37.4℉/3℃ ~41℉/5℃)
When kimchi is stored and fermented in its juice, salt acts as a preservative and prevents the growth of mold.
Minimized exposure to air helps to prevent the discoloration of kimchi.
Also, the growth of salt-resistant lactic acid bacteria keeps the kimchi fresh and flavorful.
