The Weights I Trust for Every Batch

These are the fermentation weights I reach for every time I start a new jar.
Simple. Heavy. Smooth. Reliable.
Exactly what you need to keep your veggies tucked safely under the brine — and nothing you don't.


Why I Keep Reaching for These

  • 9 glass weights per set — enough to run multiple ferments at once
  • 2.7" diameter — fits wide-mouth Mason jars perfectly
  • Solid, food-grade glass — no lead, no weird coatings, no porous surfaces
  • Flat bottom — keeps your ferments fully submerged
  • Low profile + easy-grip handle — easy to grab without disturbing your ferment
  • Non-porous — won't trap smells, stains, or off flavors
  • Dishwasher safe — easy to clean, no extra hassle

Why It Matters

  • Cleaner ferments. Fewer floaters, fewer problems.
  • More food per jar. The slim design means you can pack jars fuller.
  • Holds up over time. Solid, dependable glass that does its job.

That's it.
Nothing fancy — just a good tool that stays out of your way and lets the real work happen.
