The Ferment Vent valve in the lid
makes sure that neither oxygen nor
harmful microbes get into the jar.
Gases, on the other hand, which are
formed by the fermentation process
automatically escape through the
valve. This ensures that there is no
danger of excess pressure in the
jar. If the fermentation process
is paused by placing the jar in a
cool storage place, the Ferment
Vent valve automatically prevents
unpleasant fermentation smells
from escaping.
Fermentation salt
Salt is essential for the fermentation
process. It prevents the proliferation
of unwanted bacteria and gives the
lactic acid bacteria room to thrive.
The salt used should not have any
additives like iodine or anti-caking
agents. Rock salt or unrefined sea
salt is a good choice.

your vegetables against oxygen.
