Large Black Fermentation Jar

The Sarah Kersten studio is based in Oakland, California, where the fusion of a vibrant pottery legacy and the coastal California region shapes the nature of the work. The large fermentation jar is perfect for fermented foodlovers, and excellent for making large batches of sauerkraut or kimchi.  Crafted with a waterlock seal, an ancient design which allows for an oxygen-free environment— the gold standard of vegetable fermentation. To use, prepare and pack vegetables inside the jar, then fill the channel at the jar’s mouth with water. Once the lid is placed into the water, fermentation begins, creating CO2, which in turn pushes oxygen out of the seal and maintains an oxygen-free ferment.  11" H x 8" W Approximately 5.75 quarts Hand wash recommended
