Glass Fermentation Weights for Fermentation with Easy Lift Handles, Set of 4

These are four in a pack, at just under 7cm diameter, small enough to fit inside my new Lakeland fermenting jar. They are a good weight and pushed down the product in the jar. However, I also had to use small plastic preserving discs to hold down the apple slices which kept bobbing up above the brine. The glass disc alone was not wide enough to do this. CAUTION - I sterilized the glass weight and plastic discs in water, bringing the temperature up slowly. Unfortunately, i was careless with another glass weight which was cold, putting it onto a hot surface and it fractured from thermal shock. So now i have only 3.

Perfect for when I am making sauerkraut.

The glass weights are nicely designed to fit fermentation jars, with enough weight to hold down the vegetables in the brine solution. Easy to lift up again with the handle.

These do the job, nice weight and easy to clean. Only lose 1 star because there is a slight variation in the sizes which means not all of them will fit in the same jar. But I have a range of jar sizes so not a big issue for me. It might be a problem for someone who is always using only the same type of jar.

Quality item. Would be nice to have a bigger version for kilner jars. It does the job though, just some escapees around the edges.

These weights worked well and would be perfect for mason jars. I bought wider necked jars from here and for obvious reasons the sauerkraut I made did escape a bit around the insides of the jar. They are enormously heavy and well made though.

Just what I needed for weighting down me home made sauerkraut. Surprisingly heavy and easy to clean pure glass with small finger grip.

These are useful weights but be aware before buying measure the mouth of the jar as these though suitable for some jars, they can be too large or too small for the jars you are using. They defo do not fit Kilner Jars. I also think these a bit on the pricey side .

Útiles para hacer kinchi y mantener sumergida la col en el líquido para macerar bien, dentro del frasco. También deja sumergido el huevo duro en el frasco lleno de agua y soja para el Ramen.

I use these for when I make pickles. They do the job and fit nicely in any size jar mouth I need them too. It sounds weird, but I think they’re pretty looking, even though they’re just glass. They’re easy to clean and I just pop them in the dishwasher. I haven’t used them for anything else but I’m sure when I do, they will do the job in weighing the items down.

These are great.

This is the only size of weight to fit the Mason jars here. The rest (7 cm) are all too big to fit these mason jars but this one is a perfect fit. So if you've bought fermentation weights that don't fit, those are the right ones for you.
