Country Trading Co. Glass Fermentation Weights for Wide Mouth Jars — 4-Pack with Easy Lift Handles

Upgrade your fermentation setup with crystal-clear glass weights

Designed for wide-mouth mason jars, these glass fermentation weights provide a stable, submersed base for your vegetables as they transform in brine. The weighty feel and smooth, snag-free edges make handling simple, while the transparent glass lets you monitor the progress of sauerkraut, kimchi, pickles, and kombucha without disturbing the environment inside the jar.

What you get and how it helps

• Easy to sterilize: the smooth surface cleans quickly and is suitable for use with lactic ferments like sauerkraut and kimchi.
• Wide handles for lifting: lift and insert weights with confidence from wide-mouth jars, avoiding messy fishing for discs.
• Heavy enough to stay submerged: the weight ensures ferments remain under brine for steady, uninterrupted fermentation.
• Part of a complete fermenting kit: these weights help maintain the protective brine level needed for consistent results.
• Gift box of four: a ready-to-gift set that pairs well with other fermentation tools and kitchen gadgets.

In real-life use, you’ll notice the weights sit neatly at the bottom of the jar, creating a calm, briny surface as vegetables release their flavors. For households exploring longtime lacto-fermentation, these weights offer a practical, reusable option that supports clean, hands-off submersion.

Ideal uses and care

• Perfect for sauerkraut, kimchi, pickles, and Kombucha starters in wide-mouth jars.
• Rinse and sterilize before first use; wash between batches to maintain hygiene and flavor integrity.

Keep exploring your fermenting kit with confidence, knowing these weights are designed to stay put under brine, support even fermentation, and pair well with other glass tools. While results vary by recipe and environment, the weights offer a tangible way to help maintain brine coverage and reduce disturbance during fermentation.
