    • Is this container suitable for fermenting my own miso paste?
    • Yes, if you leave no room at the top, add some plastic wrap and then tightly seal the lid. Here is a link to our recipe that says more specifically what kind of vessel to use: http://www.culturesforhealth.com/how-to-make-mugi-miso-recipe

    • Is this container suitable for fermenting water kefir?
    • Yes, this can ferment water kefir. However, you do not need to use the special air-lock lid for fermenting water kefir. You simply need a jar and a coffee filter or tight weave towel for the top.

    • Hi. Do I still need to weight down the vegetables/sauerkraut if I use this jar?
    • The Fermented Vegetable Master comes with glass weights. The weights are helpful in keeping your fermenting veggies away from oxygen at the top of the jar.

  • From Beth at 1/21/13 4:46 PM
    • Do these containers contain any lead that can leach into products in the jar?
    • These are certified food-grade jars, which means that there would be no lead in them.
    • Do you find this question helpful?  Yes   No

    • just got one and I put the correct amount of water in airlock but it is poring out and leaking over . why is that?
    • Check the headspace above your vegetable/brine mixture in the jar. You should have 1-2 inches headspace. The liquid in the jar can bubble up into the airlock, otherwise, and cause an overflow.
    • Do you find this question helpful?  Yes   No
  • From Lane at 1/24/13 11:05 AM
    • Since the lip of the jar has a smaller diameter than the rest of the jar, and the glass weights have to fit through that smaller diameter, do your glass weights keep all the vegetables submerged? Or do some of the vegetables come up on the side of the weights?
    • The Fermented Vegetable Master Half-Gallon comes with 3 glass weights. Unless your jar is over-packed, the 3 weights should be sufficient to spread out and keep the veggies submerged.
    • Do you find this question helpful?  Yes   No
  • From Claudia at 4/2/13 9:33 AM
    • Can you transfer the fermented vegetables to another glass container after the vegetables have fermented in Vegetable Master (so you can ferment other stuff)?
    • Yes, finished fermented vegetables can be transferred to another clean container for storage.
    • Do you find this question helpful?  Yes   No

Easy & Failproof Review by Deanna

My husband and I began making sauerkraut and kimchi a few months ago with two Half-Gallon Fermented Vegetable Masters. We'd never cultured anything before and were pretty nervous about it. The Vegetable Masters made it a no-brainer. Fill 'em up, put 'em in the pantry, wait. Eat! No mold, no slime, no stink, no babysitting. Just crunchy & delicious kraut and kimchi. I'm back on the site to order more equipment. I do think the price is a somewhat steep for a glass jar & plastic airlock, but I'm willing to pay for the ease of use and peace of mind. Recommended.

I haven't had time to use these to ferment any veggies yet but I have used them to make my kombucha! I got all three sizes of jars and they're all very sturdy, the lids fit well and the little glass weights seem like they will do their job very well. I'm very happy that I have different sizes to work with. (Posted on January 13, 2013)
