Fermentation and Canning Weight

Plastic Canning Weight

A practical and very handy plastic press for preserving - an indispensable accessory in every home cook's kitchen. This functional tool ensures that pickled or fermented vegetables stay fresh, crisp, and safe throughout storage.

Why choose this press?

When fermenting or pickling cucumbers, cabbage, tomatoes, or other goodies, it’s important to ensure the food is fully submerged under the liquid (brine or marinade). Vegetables sticking out above the surface get exposed to salty air, causing them to mold faster, lose texture, and spoil. The flexible plastic mesh press reliably holds the vegetables under the liquid level.

• Reliable mold protection: Prevents exposure to air, so preserves stay fresh and tasty longer.
• Flexible and versatile: The plastic mesh bends easily, so it conveniently fits through jar necks of various diameters and adapts to different volumes.
• Safe materials: Made from food-grade plastic that does not affect the taste, smell, or safety of food products.
• Reusable: The material is resistant to moisture and acids, easy to wash, and suitable for use over multiple seasons.

Instructions for use: Place vegetables and spices in the jar and pour the prepared liquid over them. On top, place the folded press – once straightened inside the jar, it will keep the vegetables below the liquid level. After that, you can securely screw the lid on the jar.
