Material: metal and glass Purpose: A glass fermenting weight designed to keep vegetables submerged during fermentation, helping prevent mold and uneven brining. Materials and durability: Constructed from quality glass for the weight itself with metal listed as a material component. The glass construction provides durability and foodsafe performance for repeated longterm use. Heavy design for reliable performance: The weighty glass profile holds down vegetables and other fermentables so they remain below the brine surface for consistent, controlled fermentation. Widemouth compatibility: Specifically sized to fit wide mouth mason jars, making it easy to insert, remove, and clean without special tools. Easy to clean: Smooth glass surface is simple to rinse or wash by hand; compatible with standard jarcleaning methods. Single pack for smallbatch projects: Supplied as one fermenting weight — ideal for individual jars and smallbatch ferments where a single weight is required. Versatile storage use: Works for fermentation and shortterm submerged storage of vegetables or other foods in widemouth jars. Use scenarios Smallbatch sauerkraut or kimchi: Place the weight inside a widemouth mason jar over shredded cabbage or vegetables to keep them submerged and promote even lactic acid fermentation. Refrigerator pickles and vegetable storage: Keep cucumber spears, carrots, or other prepared vegetables under brine in a single jar for crisp, longerlasting refrigerated storage. Singlejar experiments and meal prep: Ideal for testing recipes or preparing small quantities of fermented condiments without committing to large fermentation crocks. What it solves Prevents floating produce that can cause spoilage or inconsistent fermentation. Simplifies cleaning and handling in widemouth jars compared with makeshift weights. Provides a durable, foodsafe option for repeated home fermentation projects. Compatibility and care notes Designed for wide mouth mason jars; confirm fit with your jar model before use. Hand wash recommended to maintain surface integrity; follow standard foodsafety cleaning practices.
