Designed for the traditional water seal method. What is the Water Seal Method?

The water seal method is a traditional way of fermenting foods like pickles, sauerkraut, kimchi, and other vegetables using a water-filled barrier to create the perfect fermentation environment.

In short:

• Vegetables stay submerged. Oxygen stays out. Carbon dioxide can escape

That’s exactly what good fermentation needs. This method was widely used in Central and Eastern Europe for sauerkraut and pickles long before modern jars existed.
