I'm fairly new to this. Not many cures under my belt. I am currently using a C-vault for the first time. I have a 2-liter on. I also have more from the same harvest in pint jars, because that was the only size I had good lids for at the time. I'm using Boveda 62 packets in the C-vault as well as all of the pint jars.
The first 5 days I burped daily and have since gone to every other day and am on day 10 or 11 total.
After the first day or so all of it had developed a very disappointing grassy smell. But since then the stuff in the pint jars is getting stinkier. It's getting a real funk to it, and I mean that in a good way! However, the goods in the C-vault have not changed in odor much. Grassy is still the first word that comes to mind with it, whereas the jars I would describe as somewhat skunky and good.
It's been on my mind for a few days now, and feeling like the jars are doing a better job than the C-Vault. I now have a good half-gallon mason jar that I could dump it into. If you were me would you give the c-vault any more time to improve, or move it all to a jar right away?
Thanks in advance.
