Masontops fermentation set for wide mouth jars

Masontops fermentation kit

Preserve your favourite vegetables - quickly and easily

Preserve your favourite vegetables quickly and easily - with the fermentation kit from Masontops. Without the addition of additives, the fresh flavour of the vegetables is retained, as are the vitamins and minerals. In addition to the kit, all you need is Mason Jar jars (950 ml, wide mouth)*, some salt, water and vegetables - and you're ready to go.

The kit includes the following items that make fermenting a breeze, whether you are a beginner or a pro:

Pickle Pipe:
Silicone fermentation attachments with patented airlock system. They ensure that no oxygen or impurities can enter the jar. At the same time, any carbon dioxide produced can escape. This is the basic prerequisite for the formation of lactic acid bacteria, which ensure natural preservation. The valuable minerals and vitamins in the fermented vegetables are fully preserved with this natural method.

Pickle Pebble:
For successful, natural fermentation, it is essential that the vegetables are completely surrounded by brine. The ^MasontopsTM fermentation kit therefore contains glass weights (pickle pebble) that you place on the vegetables so that they remain under the salty liquid.

Pickle Packer:
Wooden stamper made of natural, untreated acacia wood and sealed and protected with a food-safe mineral oil. Acacia wood is a particularly hard wood, making it very durable, sustainable and environmentally friendly. Use the tamper to press the vegetables down in the jar so that all the moisture is released before fermentation begins and the air volume is reduced.

Recipe ideas:
You can try numerous combinations of vegetables, herbs and spices when fermenting. Pickle cucumbers with dill, kimchi with coriander or carrots with saffron. The longer the vegetables are fermented, the more intense their flavour will be. For garden owners, fermentation is a great way to enjoy harvested vegetables all year round. Tomatoes, beetroot and cabbage can be fermented with ginger, garlic or coriander, for example, and eaten months later as a tasty side dish or savoury snack.
