    • Hello, I bought one of these last fall and love it. However, I haven't figured out a good way to keep the veggies submerged in the brine with this container because the mouth is so much more narrow than the rest of the jar. I just re-read the description here and saw that it is supposed to come th 3 weights. I never received them with my order. Can I get some weights now? Thanks.
    • Hi Kelley

      You are right, you need weights to keep your veggies submerged. You should have received them with your jar.

      Did you order from us directly? If so do you have your order number or the email address associated with it?
      Once I locate your order I can see what happened and figure out how to rectify it.

      Lets get you back to fermenting!

      Best wishes,
      Maggie

Great jar for the price--makes fermentation EASY! Review by Abby

We tried rigging up our own fermentation "crock" but the result was less than desirable. The whole thing was messy, and it was hard to keep the vegetables anaerobic. The texture of the kraut was mushy and the taste wasn't that palatable. Rather than give up on fermenting all together, we decided to purchase two Vegetable Masters. The results were delicious--the first time. And as a bonus, the jar is very easy to use. We love the taste of our fermented veggie medley and sauerkraut now and just ordered two more of the jars to keep up with our family's demand. We have 6 kids who love their ferments now! Thank you!

Excellent Saurkraut Review by Katka

This fermenter produced the best saurkraut I've ever made. Up until now, I had made a couple of batches in a ceramic crock but always had issues with mould. The research I did said mould was common but it grossed me out.

With this system there were no mould issues. None. The cabbage fermented beautifully, the brine stayed clear, and the saurkraut tastes fantastic.

My only complaint is that the mouth of the jar is a bit narrow. I don't have large hands but, even though I mixed the cabbage and salt together in a big bowl before loading it into the jar, I found it a bit awkward to pack in. But this is a minor issue and I'm really pleased I made this purchase. (Posted on February 20, 2013)
We love the crisp saurkraut! Review by Saurkraut Don

If you like saurkraut and never made it, you have to get this fermenter and make your own! The crisp saurkraut is soo much better than the canned stufff you buy t the store. I simply cut up two and a half heads of cabbage, sprinkled them with about two tablespoons of salt, and then packed it into the fermenter.

Hint: When I made my first batch, I only used one head of cabbage and didn't pack it enough. for the second batch I cut up two and a half heads of cabbage, sprinkled it with salt, and hand mixed it in a large bowl for about five minutes before packing. This helps to draw out the water from the cabbage. My tip for packing is to use your fist to "punch" the cabbage down. By packing it tighter, the cabbage stays below the water. I then left it on the counter for about two weeks. I love making a boiled dinner of sausage, potatoes, onions, and carrots. After cooking the other vegetable to desired tenderness, I like them a little crunchy, I added the saurkraut for about the last five minutes. That way it was heated through, but still had the crunchiness that I love in the homemade kraut. I'm going to keep a batch brewing all the time and am never going back to the canned kraut!

I did some research before choosing this method of fermenting vegetables. I wanted to make a smaller amount before investing in a large crock. I am satisfied. There was no mold formation on the top of my liquid. I look forward to trying again with a different culture. (Posted on January 10, 2013)
