The jar can fit 2 heads of napa cabbage if you pre-brine them, then rinse and press the cabbage. Mix the kimchi paste or NOH mix in to cabbage, shredded carrots and spring onion then pack it tightly into the jar. Put on lid and fill rim with water. To start fermenting process leave it out in dark area or covered with a towel for 3 days before moving to fridge.

Great for fermenting! Thank you!

I have been making my own sauerkraut, pickles, and Kimchi for many years.I usually use wide mouth mason jars, but I decided to try this instead of having to divide up a whole head of cabbage between a bunch of jars.I did not think this through.Normal weights do not fit through the narrow neck, neither will a (clean) hand.It is a beautiful jar, but you want to prepare your brine and use small weights. Too much work to feed cabbage into it in small bits. I gave it four stars because it’s not the jar’s fault I am lazy. Probably a better fit for liquid ferments.

I now have two of these and love them both.No messy cloths over jar mouths, this makes the process so much simpler and gives confidence that good bacteria stays in while bad bacteria stays out, all the while the pressure has somewhere to escape.Remember to put a little water in the rim and to sop it up before you pour your ferment into the next container.Very nice product!

I really love this fermentation crock, in fact I had purchased two of them. They were working out great until one of them suddenly cracked. I was hand-washing one in warm soapy water after using it, when I heard a cracking sound. Next thing I know there is a long crack along the bottom of the crock and a big piece of glass fell right off. All I was doing was washing it with a soft sponge. Not sure if there was some sort of defect i. the crock that I never noticed. Really bummed out because I use them often, but not sure whether I should bother getting another one-would like to know if the company would replace it.

Seems sturdy so far.

Works as it should.

I just purchased this to do some fermenting. Just filled it with cucumbers and brine, but the opening is so small you can't even put a fermentation weight in. Avoid.
