Water Seal Fermentation

Ferment food the traditional way with our water channel crock jar, lid and weights. With this crock, you can make numerous probiotic-rich recipes like kimchi, pickled vegetables, sauerkraut, kefir, kombucha, yogurt, sourdough, condiments, and more! Fermentation gives fermented foods their zing; it also delivers probiotics, B vitamins, omega-3s and digestive enzymes that strengthen our digestive and immune health. There is no limit to the types of fermented foods and beverages you can concoct.

  • Make german-style sauekraut for layering on a bratwurst or eating on its own--best served warm!
  • Or try your hand at an easy napa cabbage kimchi recipe, rich in umami flavor and healthy probiotics!
  • You can truly ferment any vegetable, especially cucumbers, to get the crisp tart flavor of pickles!
  • It's even easy to brew kombucha or grow a sourdough starter by swapping out the lid for a clean cloth!

Place prepared cabbage, cucumbers, and vegetables into the crock, using the included crescent weights to submerge the contents, fill the gutter rim, and add the lid. The ingenious design of this crock allows carbon dioxide to escape while keeping air and unwanted microbes and contaminants, such as dust and insects, out.

    How is the Crock

    Posted by Mike King on 30th Nov 2020

    So far fantastic. I am two days into my first batch of Saur Kraut and the 2 GAL is a fantastic size. Cleaning was easy before the first use. I plan to do a batch of cucumber Kimchi Next but love how the lid design works compared to a smaller German brand I have. I bought a 3 Gal prior and is very big compared to the 2 Gal. Should be set for awhile unless I buy another 2 Gal. Definitely a nice size.

    Excellent Customer Service

    Posted by Briana on 27th Nov 2020

    I pre-ordered a water seal fermentation crock that was on back-order. A pizza stone was delivered a few days later. I contacted customer service about the mistake, and they responded and shipped the crock the same day even though it was still listed on backorder on the website. I received it a few days later. It was well packaged. Since it is a gift, I have not tried it out yet. But I will definitely be ordering from them again in the future. Highly recommend.

    Great product

    Posted by Jon on 11th Oct 2020

    I decided to graduate from Mason jar batches of sauerkraut to a real fermentation crock and I was not disappointed. The crock was shipped quickly and packaged very well. It is attractive and I love that it is made in the USA. I just finished my first batch of kraut and I am so happy with the results. I recommend this water sealed crock.

    We were very impressed with the quality of the construction of this crock.,and the weights.We wanted to prepare some fermented foods, sauerkraut, in particular, we have 2 heads of cabbage which were put into the crock yesterday, and the fermentation has already begun. I think I’m going to like water seal fermentation and look forward to using this amazing crock for years to come..

    2 gallon fermentation crock

    Posted by Cynthia Naeger on 24th Aug 2020

    Very pleased with the quality. When I ordered I felt the shipping and handling was more than I expected to pay. However, the item has real heft and the packing is customized to protect the specific crock and ensure no damage will occur. I feel really good about my purchase.

    Even good packaging didn’t save it from shipping damage

    Posted by Paul Zavitkovski on 9th Jul 2020

    Looking forward to using our new fermenter. Only problem was from shipping. One of the ceramic weights chipped in transit. It won’t effect the product, but after paying $70 for shipping I sort of expected it to be in flawless condition. Packaging was great too so this is just an unfortunate chipped corner.

    Beautiful Fermenting Crock

    Posted by Sharon Kale on 28th Jun 2020

    Arrived fast even though I had pre-ordered it. The padding was amazing, but despite this, one of the weights did break in transit. Ohio Stoneware's customer service was excellent and they took care of it quickly and painlessly! What more could you ask for? I highly recommend this company. The crock itself is beautiful and looks like it will last for many years to come.
