Size:1- 2.5" REGULAR MOUTH QRP Basic Food Fermentation Instructions included = Effortless Perfect Ferments Every Batch. During the fermentation process, the food expands and rises. QRP'S PATENTED OCCUPARE VITA FERMENTATION FOOD RETAINER CUP situates on the mouth of a Mason jar where it stays in place, KEEPS ALL FOOD SUBMERGED in the brine (juices), and PREVENTS MESSY OVERFLOW. Costly glass or ceramic weights can chip or burst during the fermentation process for no apparent reason causing waste of the entire batch. Experienced fermenters know that AIRLOCKS are dependable in observing the release of oxygen bubbles, which reveals and confirms active fermentation. The 3-Piece Airlock allows the system to exhale oxygen and prevents re-entry. QRP 3-Piece Water Airlocks are easy to un-assemble and rinse, unlike lids without airlocks where food particles get trapped underneath difficult to remove and replace seals and date markers. The QRP lid reserves space for a date label. The QRP Fermentation Kits include Silicone Seals which fit snug into the Mason jar plastic lids and provide a perfect airtight, anaerobic enclosure while fermenting Pickles, Kimchi (vegetables) or Kombucha (tea) and are EASY TO REMOVE for cleaning. Metal lids or rings shouldn't be used for fermentation, nor for storage of fermented foods due to eventual corrosion. QRP products were developed to help our director overcome prostate cancer.

It came faster than expected with a nice explanation on how to use it
I bought this for fermenting... but silly me pushed a little too hard on the syringe and broke the lid 1st time out. BE GENTLE. It came faster than expected with a nice explanation on how to use it. BE GENTLE. Religious material came inside with an explanation of why they mailed it with the product. Just ask them not to send it when you purchase it or throw it away if you don't want it. Did I mention BE GENTLE?

Fermentation No-Brainer
Excellent service and excellent product. I have been fermenting non-stop since it arrived. As a physician, I thought that some of the literature enclosed was spurious but I can overlook that for a good product.

Good Value Item
This looks like a good value, with good quality components at a reasonable price. The only other tools needed to do kraut (or many other vegetable) fermentation are weights and a stomper to compact the shredded cabbage, and weights to keep the cabbage submerged.I happen to have a wooden stomper from my food grinder attachment for KitchenAid stand mixer that will work well. I thought the weights available here seemed too expensive for what they are, so I hit the local Goodwill store. There I found a decorative jar filled with large glass pebbles for less than $2.00. I plan to put them in a cheesecloth bag held together with butcher's twine.
