Fermentation jar with lid and flexible weight by Plastia.

This is a complete set consisting of a container (jar) and the necessary accessories to start the fermentation process.

Brand: Plastia.

Material: The set is made of food-grade materials containing approximately 5-20% coffee ground admixture, giving it a unique color and texture.

Dimensions: Depth: 9.5 cm Height: 15.7 cm Width: 9.5 cm Weight (mass): 0.482 kg (set weight)

This set provides everything needed to produce fermented vegetables, cabbage, or other products at home.

The set includes:

• A 0.75L jar;
• Fermentation lid: A plastic lid with an integrated one-way valve that automatically releases carbon dioxide produced during fermentation, while preventing air from entering the jar.
• Pressure insert (weight): A flexible insert designed to press the fermenting products below the brine surface, thus protecting them from mold formation.

The weight is made of food-grade plastic and is designed to fit in a 1.0L jar, ensuring that the contents remain fully submerged, which is critical for successful fermentation. It is lightweight and flexible, and its primary purpose is not to press, but to hold the vegetables below the liquid.

For safe fermentation and to keep vegetables crunchy, the most common and safest proportion is a 2% salt concentration of the total weight (vegetables + water).
