Product Description

Sauerkraut pots too big? Weck jars too expensive? Vacuum bags too environmentally polluting? Then simply convert any jar or yoghurt bucket that you already have lying around into automatic fermentation jars with this fermentation airlock! How ‘no waste’ do you want it?

What is a waterlock?

The waterlock ensures that carbon dioxide can escape, but that no oxygen, fungi or fruit flies can get to your fermenting vegetables. The rubber grommet ensures that the waterlock fits perfectly in your lid and that no gas can escape around the edges.

  • 1 rubber seal (approx. 10-11 mm)
  • Also suitable for brewing beer or making wine or cider

    Just the best! Is plastic but still sturdy material and definitely not a fiddly thing or anything.
