Know before you buy
The adjustable inner lid presses down directly onto your vegetables, pushing out excess air to create an anaerobic environment. This minimizes oxidation and prevents surface mold, ensuring your kimchi or sauerkraut stays crisp and vibrant.
Yes, the double-lid system is specifically designed to contain the strong aromas associated with fermentation. By creating a tight seal, it keeps the smell of fermenting cabbage or garlic inside the container rather than letting it permeate your refrigerator.
Absolutely. While it is optimized for pickling, the airtight seal makes it an excellent storage vessel for dry goods like coffee beans, grains, or bread, helping to keep them fresh for longer periods.
Yes, the container is made from a blend of food-grade polypropylene and natural clay. It is completely free of BPA, DEHP, and lead, making it a safe choice for acidic ferments.
The container is dishwasher safe, which makes cleanup straightforward. Because the material is non-porous and high-quality, it resists staining and lingering odors better than standard plastic containers.
Yes, the vessel is freezer-safe, allowing you to store your finished ferments at lower temperatures to halt the fermentation process or keep them preserved for extended use.
