Eliminate Mold: The Lab Standard for Fermentation Vessels

If you are fermenting peppers in a mason jar and “burping” it every day, you are introducing airborne pathogens and Kahm yeast into your batch every time you open the lid. A closed-system airlock allows CO2 to escape without letting oxygen in, eliminating the risk of mold and exploding glass.

The Golden Rule: Keep It Submerged

An airlock only works if the pepper mash is completely submerged in your 2% salt brine. If any plant matter floats above the liquid line, it will rot. All of our recommended kits include heavy glass or ceramic fermentation weights to keep your mash safely below the brine.
