Product Description

Get the equipment you need to make live probiotic lactic pickles at home - sauerkraut - kimchi - kosher dill pickles and vegetable ferments

This set of 4 glass fermentation weights are made just for us. We've tried many different weights to keep our vegetable ferments under the brine but these glass weights are everything that we like all rolled into one product.
We like them because:
- They fit wide mouth glass jars.
- They're deep enough so that when the top hits the lid the base is still pushing the pickles down.
- Easy to put in and to fish out of the jar by grabbing the little handle.
- Heavy enough to keep down the most vigorous ferment
- Really easy to clean.
Place your glass fermentation weights over a follower made from vegetable leaves to weight down your lactic pickles

Country Trading Co. is a family business with over 10 years of experience making supplying and teaching home fermentation.

- Reviewed in Canada on July 3, 2025Verified PurchaseMeasure your jar openings carefully, even though I did, these were slightly larger than described (by one or two mm) and did not fit in all of my wide mouth jars. Otherwise, great product, arrived in good condition, appreciate the cardboard packaging.

- Reviewed in Canada on October 26, 2024Verified PurchaseLove the handles on these glass weights, they're a good size for most jars, easy to remove when you want to test how things are going, the rest of the time leave these on to keep everything under the brine. Very useful for any kind of pickling, or for making kvass, sauerkraut, kimchi, or cultured pickles.
- Reviewed in Canada on January 25, 2025Verified PurchaseThey do what they are supposed to do.
- Reviewed in Canada on April 29, 2023Verified PurchaseLove these weights. Definitely multipurpose, which is always a plus for me, and they come in cardboard packaging with NO PLASTIC. This is huge as most manufacturers use a stupid amount of plastic. The boxes they come in are heavy duty & low profile, taking up very little room so I keep them stored in their boxes. I use them for fermentation, making raw herbal oil infusions to hold the raw plant material under the oil so I don't get any mold developing, for holding down edges of parchment paper in certain situations. They also hold up to high temperature heat with no cracking or damage, which makes them perfect for many applications.
I have several in use at the moment. Definitely glad I bought them.
- Reviewed in Canada on March 25, 2023Verified PurchaseGood buy
- Reviewed in Canada on September 22, 2024Verified PurchaseI should have bought the bigger ones or I should have measure the jars first.. Beside this they are 👍 good

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for fermenting!
Verified PurchaseThis is actually perfect! I am a medical student who loves to learn about the gut and recently have been fermenting foods. My fear was that it may not fit into the jar or that it may not be heavy enough to press the content down but it turned out to be just perfect. Fits perfectly, is heavy enough and looks gorgeous. Very easy to clean since it's just glass. Good value for money, it's worth it!
- AzzalazzaReviewed in Australia on April 4, 2024
5.0 out of 5 stars Pretty Weighty
Verified PurchaseThese are such effective weights and they look pretty too. They’re effective because they’re the perfect size and you can pretty much squish all manner of picklings down in any type of fermenting container by layering them on top of each other and alongside. Nothing has ever floated to the top and spoiled using these weights. 😎

5.0 out of 5 stars Super, endlich passt es!
Verified PurchaseTolle Gewichte und endlich passend für die normalen Einmachgläser. Die üblichen 7mm sind einfach zu groß und diese hier gehen super rein.
