I posted on a FB group about fermenting brassicas with salt inside a refrigerator. Someone casted serious doubt cause he believed that the fermenting microorganisms cannot survive at low temperature. But there are actually many microorganisms that can survive happily below freezing. #Acetobacter that gives rise to the acetic acid in fermented brassicas is one example. In fact, there are obligatory psychrophilic snow molds that can only survive at low temperature. #microbiology #permaculture

Am I being stupid, btw? I acknowledge I could just keep making cider UNTIL I get one that turns to vinegar, and then I will have my mother culture. and I'm assuming I could then keep it viable by "feeding" it in the same would you would sourdough.
What I'm really after is the secret of the getting and keeping viable #acetobacter mother cultures not only for cider (I have an orchard to play with) but also pear (orchard), wine (no grapes ... yet ... ), and malt vinegars.

How do you make #cider #vinegar for #preserving (pickles, chutneys) in a "home kitchen"?
NOT the industrialised process, BTW, no cheating buying things in shops or essential ingredients online! (inc. "mother"!)
If I wanted to make it from first principles using raw ingredients I could grow, forage or culture, how would I go about it? Has anyone experimented with making it for themselves?
I'm assuming:
Step one - Make alcoholic cider!
Step two - Convert the alcohol into vineger using an #acetobacter ... but where do you get the acetobacter if you haven't got the "mother culture" in the first place?
Anyone tried to do it?

This is work I've been waiting to see come out for at least a year (two!?). Congrats Ren and the Ludington lab on a very cool study!
Acetobacter and Lactobacillus interact in the gut through Lactobacillus' effect in shaping the gut morphology to reshape in-pockets such that more (and varied) Acetobacter can colonize the niche.
