Ohio Stoneware Fermenting Crock Brine Weight Stones for Numbered Crocks USA Made

Stone for holding down the shredded cabbage for fermenting in the ceramic jar arrived well packed, AKA, no breakage. It arrived earlier than promised. Ready to make lots of sour kraut.

I'm fermenting pickles for dill & garlic pickles then several pounds of cabbage to make sauerkraut for the first time

Pickles and sauerkraut.

These work great! It makes fermenting foolproof and submerges your ferments for great results!

I use in my crock when making sauerkraut, it will help the process!!

The right tool for the job and made by the best. Cukes and cabbage shall now stay submerged. Can use in our glass flour jars or in crocks....a must have for picklers and fermenters

I purchased the weights for a vintage crock. They fit perfectly.

Came very well packaged,fit my crock perfectly,Recycled the packaging for storage of the weights in my crock . Recommend this to anyone interested in pickling. Will buy more for my other crocks

We bought the Crock Kit (crock, lid, and weights) to make sauerkraut. When I had made sauerkraut before I used this antique crock and cabbage cutter my parents used. To put weight on the cabbage to keep it emerged in the brine we used weighted pie plates. They would tip, sink, get messy. We got a crock weight. To keep it clean we sealed it in a Seal-A-Meal bag. It's currently keeping a batch of cabbage submerged in a brine as I write this review. We've been able to easily check the sauerkraut batch as it pickles.

I got the 5 gallon crock for xmas. So I purchased the crock cover and weights. Using to make sauerkraut and kimchi.

Excited to make sauerkraut in these large batches. Thank you for making it easy!

Perfectly fine.

A very practical and time saving tool for sauerkraut making.

I did not buy these for pickling--I bought these for making grape leaves. When you pack a pot for Boiling you need something to hold your food under the liquid so it cooks completely & this was it! well made and my Husband loved it!

Nice size and fits great

Previously our cucumbers would float to the top of the brine and some mold would form which really grossed me out, but with these weights, the cucumbers remain immersed and we don't see mold while the cucumbers pickle evenly.

Best crock weights on the market!! Heavy and thick. Highly recommend this product and seller.

Place cabbage in crock press down with masher remove all air pockets.Place cabbage leaves over cabbage and place weights on top of product until liquid covers weights this the simplest and cleanest way to submerges cabbage during the fermenting process. Many of my friends said just get a plate and use a stone that has been boiled to sterilize it.That is all fine and dandy but you never know if that stone has been contaminated with Glyphosate s.For my family's safety I chose to purchase a brand new Made In The USA product.I am also investing in the Ohio Stoneware 3 gallon Crock next.I have nothing negative to say about this product.

I can honestly say that I have never said I love my weights, Until now! They are fantastic. I made my first batch of pickles two weeks ago. These bad boy weights kept the pickles down in the crock where they belonged. There was no bobbing allowed. I highly recommend them. I'm going to make some saurkraut this weekend. It's great to be able to preserve the food you grew on your countertop! I'm a happy camper!!!!!!

We have a container we use for fermenting veggies and were thinking about buying a fermentation crock because of problems with finding the right system to keep the veggies submerged under the brind. The crocks are just a little more than we want to spend at the moment, so were thrilled to find these weights, which happen to fit perfectly in our existing jar. Thank You Gardener's.
