    Description

    Please Note-
    Due to a 50% increase in wholesale prices, THESE ARE THE LAST of this item that we will have, at least at this price!
    We hope to find a new supplier, but there probably will be an interruption in sales.
    So, WHEN THEY ARE GONE, they may be gone for good.
    You are bidding on a
    bag
    of
    7 individual wide mouth
    fermentation weights, total weight over 16 ounces, to help hold food below the brine when fermenting.
    These weights are
    NOW 17% thicker
    than our original!
    Our weights are, by far, the
    best value for glass weights
    on Ebay!  These are the original glass weights, and they are STILL THE BEST!
    We also have Ebay listings for
    1 weight for .60, including shipping
    or a bulk lot of
    18 pounds of weights, over 100 weights for 9.00, including shipping
    We have only the one size currently:
    2 1/3” meant to fit a wide canning jar with a 3 1/3" opening (
    a bag of
    7 individual weights, at least 16 ounces of weights
    ).
    These are our flagship product, they have been successfully used by thousands of our customers.  Finest Ferment
    glass canning jar weights
    were specially developed for use in
    lacto fermented preserving
    in a jar .
    This product was developed
    to keep the vegetables below the level of the liquid
    in the jar, which is really about the only cause of possible failure when using lacto fermenting preserving methods.
    Our glass is tough and heavy duty, I have dropped them on a tile floor many times, usually without breakage.
    Beware of our competitor's weights made from tempered glass.
    We have found these to chip super easily when hit against the side of the jar or other object.
    Please note
    the last  picture above shows a wide mouth weight in a wide mouth jar. PLEASE NOTE- There is approximately
    1/2 ” space
    all around the margin of the weight where it
    does not cover the food
    . This is to allow the gas to come to the top and not get stuck under the weight.  (see the second picture above).
    Also note, on some spongy food or food that has a tendency to float, more than one weight might be needed to keep the food submerged. Also more than one weight can be used like spacers, holding the food down by the jar lid.
    You may also go to our website (google finest ferment), for further information about these fermentation products.
    You get 7 individual weights of the wide mouth size which are about
    2 1/3 inches
    in diameter meant to fit a wide mouth mason jars with approx. a 3 1/3 inch opening.  See second photo.
    The price is only .90 on Ebay FOR 7 weights, total weight over a pound!  Compare that to the price of 2 to 4 weights from the competitors, we have the best glass and the best deal on fermentation weights!
    They are made of non iridized glass. Glass is known to be one of the most inert substances and should not leach chemicals into your Ferment.
    NOT FOR HEAT PROCESSING
    Handle the jars carefully to avoid banging the weight against the inside of the jar.
    Also, be sure to always retrieve and inspect the weight for breakage before consuming any ferment.
    Samples of our glass have been surface tested for lead, as well as density tested for lead and found to be
    consistent
    with soda glass, with no lead.
    The quantity of weights you get is 7 for the wide mouth size, which are over 1 pound of weights. These weights are
    NOW 17% thicker
    than our original, as 6 weights are about the thickness and weight as 7 of our previous weights.

    If you do not presently use lacto fermenting canning, you should!  This is one of the oldest, tastiest, easiest, most energy efficient and most healthy ways of preserving your harvest!  I recommend 2 books
