I make kimchee and sauerkraut very often, I soooo do love it as much as anything else. The best recipe that I've found to date is this one, it is totally spot on and wonderful:
Clicky. She generally stores it for a day before consuming, but I let it ferment for a week or two to make sure it's very pungent and sour. By the way her other food is really good too, I do recommend trying her recipes out.
If you are looking for more kimchi recipe's (with not only cabbage) and other assorted korean dishes I'd recommend checking out
this book. This has improved my korean dishes by 10 fold. If you like fermented foods, I'd also recommend picking up
Wild Fermentation very good read.
Enjoy.
