Practical ceramic two-piece weight for fermentation barrels with a capacity of 10, 15, and 25 liters. Thanks to the finger holes, it is easy to insert and remove, allows juice to drain, and helps keep vegetables submerged without air exposure. Compared to wood, it prevents mold and bacteria and extends the shelf life of stored vegetables.
The ceramic weight is split into two parts so it can be easily placed into containers with a narrower neck than the final diameter of the assembled weight. The finger holes make handling easier and also allow vegetable juice to flow freely, supporting the proper course of fermentation.
Ceramic is hygienic and durable—unlike wood, it limits the formation of mold and bacteria. The weight keeps vegetables permanently submerged, minimizing air contact and promoting safe fermentation. When the barrel is placed on a stable spot at room temperature, vegetables can be stored for several months.
- Two-piece design – easy to insert even into barrels with a smaller neck.
- Finger hole(s) – convenient removal of the weight and drainage of juice.
- Hygienic material – ceramic inhibits the growth of mold and bacteria.
- Universal use – for barrels with capacities of 10, 15, and 25 l.
