Glass weight for fermentation jar
Good quality weight, fits jars well
Super quick service and exactly what I needed for fermenting. Great website with awesome products. Highly recommend
I am green when it comes to preserving. I just assumed the wide mouth jars/lids/weights/screw bands were a one size fits all. But to my dismay they are not.
I got some jars from the op shop, no labels on them. The glass weights and pickle pipe lids fit perfectly but the Perfit Gold B1 Screwbands did not fit (to small). I had bottled the tomatoes when I found this out.
I did not know what to look for in regards to screw bands. Went everywhere in my small town of Tokoroa, but nothing. Went out of town to a supermarket that had one Perfit Jar/lid/green screw band sold as a kit. So I purchased it for the screw band.
Got home and found the Perfit B2 Green Screwband fit my jars, BUT the glass weights did not fit the jar I got from the supermarket. I could not believe it.
I looked on the perfit website to purchase Green screw bands, it said they only sell to supermarkets. Went to my supermarkets, they said they do not order specialty items. Finally found some on The Preserving Pan Website in Auckland. So brought online and received within 3 days. So now I need more jars but now know not to buy the Perfit wide mouth jars. Will put a glass weight and Green screw band in the car so can take with me to the op shops and do the big assessment! Hope this is helpful to someone :)
These glass weights fitted perfectly into my jars and did the job they are made for extremely well. Nice and heavy, and easy to take in and out. Very happy with my purchase.
I love the look of these new weights. Although the previous ones did the job, the handle could be difficult to pick up from a jar of fermented veggies. This new design is thicker and heavier, which is great, but it's the new handle that I'm really looking forward to using. Super fast delivery.
