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.

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