Know before you buy
These lids are specifically designed to fit wide-mouth mason jars. They will not fit regular-mouth jars.
The waterless airlock allows carbon dioxide produced during fermentation to escape the jar while preventing oxygen from entering. This creates an anaerobic environment necessary for successful pickling without the need to monitor water levels in a traditional airlock.
The oxygen pump is used to remove excess air from the jar after packing your vegetables. By reducing the initial oxygen exposure, you help create a more stable environment for beneficial bacteria to thrive.
Yes, the lids are designed for easy cleaning. They can be washed in the dishwasher, though hand washing is recommended to maintain the integrity of the seal over time.
Absolutely. The secure seal and waterless design are ideal for both short-term ferments like quick pickles and long-term projects like sauerkraut or kimchi that require several weeks to develop.
