Practical and Well-Designed Starter Kit
I ordered this Glolaurge fermentation set to start making homemade sauerkraut. While I love the health benefits of fermented foods, the refrigerated store-bought versions are often expensive, and the shelf-stable options lose most of their probiotic value. This kit provides a much more cost-effective way to produce high-quality ferments at home, and I plan to expand into pickles and other vegetables soon. It really is a complete starter package since it includes the wide-mouth jars, heavy glass weights with convenient handles, and three-piece airlocks for easy burping.The design of these jars is particularly thoughtful for home use. The square shape is a huge plus for organization because they line up neatly in a pantry or fridge without wasting space. I was also impressed by the quality of the gasket seals. The lids feature a dedicated breather hole with a silicone cap, which makes the transition from fermentation to cold storage very simple. Once the airlock is removed, you just pop the cap on and put it in the fridge. These are versatile enough to work as standard storage jars for dry goods when you aren't actively fermenting. Overall, this set is a great value for anyone looking to get into home fermentation.

Great Fermenting Crock Set That Makes Homemade Ferments Easy
I got this fermentation crock set to make sauerkraut and pickles at home, and it’s been a really good experience so far. The ceramic material feels sturdy and traditional, and it’s large enough to handle decent batches without crowding the vegetables. I like the way the crock seals and the water-seal design helps keep air out — it made the fermentation process simple and less messy than I expected. Cleanup has been easy enough, and the overall quality feels solid for something I’ll use regularly.My only small complaint is that the lid can be a little snug to fit just right, so it took a couple tries to get it seated without worrying about water spilling over, but once you’ve got it dialed in it works fine. Overall, this is a good value for the price if you’re getting into fermenting at home, and it’s versatile enough to handle a variety of ferments without feeling too complicated to use.

Perfect for My First Batch of Pickles
I am so excited about this set! I just put in my very first batch of pickles, and I honestly can’t wait to try them. The square design is actually really smart because it tucks away into the corner of my counter much better than round jars do. The glass feels nice and thick, and the fermentation weights that come with the kit are a lifesaver for keeping everything submerged so you don't have to worry about anything spoiling.The 1.5-liter size is just right, too. Big enough to handle a good amount of veggies but not so massive that it's impossible to move. Since it’s a pack of two, I’m already planning to use the second jar for some kimchi once I see how the pickles turn out. If you’re looking to get into home fermenting, this kit makes the whole process feel very official and easy to manage.

Beautiful and useful kit
This is such a beautiful fermenting set. The jars are wonderful quality, great gasket seals for the lids and the breather hole on the lid. The metal band/latch is also great quality and when it’s closed the seal is very tight. The airlock part of the kit is nice too but not heavy duty. The one airlock has no cracks or damage to the plastic, but the valve in the second airlock is broken- see the pictures. It was broken when it arrived so I’m not sure what happened. Maybe the manufacturer can use a more heavy duty plastic so it will hold up better.Hopefully I can figure something out so I can still use the second jar, otherwise it’s still a very good jar and I could use it for something else.The weight has a good heft to it, I’m very excited about fermenting things with an actual fermentation kit and having a weight. I’ve made sauerkraut a few times and have had to use a bag filled with water as my weight. I’m quite excited for gardening season and getting some veggies fermenting.

Worthwhile for safe lactofermenting
enjoy lacto fermenting, hot sauce. I was trying to use the burping technique with a pickling jar, but inadvertently would get Kahm yeast. Although it is safe to consume, yeast changes the flavor dramatically. This jar was very simple to use and with the ability to have gas exchange without oxygen going in, I had no contamination.

All in one kit
Really great product for fermentation. I've used these to make a few batches of fermented hot sauce. I really like that this is packaged as a kit. You don't have to purchase the pieces separately (like the weights and gas release).

Great Jars
These fermentation jars are amazing. The quality is excellent. The glass feels thick and sturdy, the square shape is space-efficient, and the included fermentation weights are a big plus.Perfect size for sauerkraut, kimchi, or pickles, and easy to clean. These also work well as storage jars when not fermenting.Well made, practical, and worth it if you actually plan to ferment. Good value. Recommend.
