They are the ideal weight and dimensions to fit your choice of either wide mouth or regular mouth mason jars. Keep your veggies fully submerged with these our precision fermentation tools. |
Finger Grip for Easy RemovalOur patented design includes a handy finger grip to make our fermentation weights a snap to remove when it's time to taste your creations. Simply pinch the finger grip handle on the top of the weights and lift them out. No messing around sticking your fingers or forks into the jar to remove your weights. Pickle Pebbles make it simple. |
Non-Porous and Food SafeDon't risk food safety using items than can be easily contaminated and spoil your fermentating veggies while inside the jar. Pickle Pebbles are non-porous, so they won't absorb contaminants that can be released in future ferments. They are made from crystal clear soda lime glass, the same glass used in the mason jars themselves. |

Reviewed in the United States on March 6, 2024
So, I purchased the combo pack of the Pickle Pebbles (4 wide mouth pebbles, 4 standard pebbles), and they have done the job perfectly! The larger size fits perfectly in a wide mouth mason jar and the smaller size fits in standard mason jars. So far, I've used them successfully in pint, quart, and half-gallon size jars. As a note, I would still recommend placing a large piece of cabbage over the shredded cabbage before putting the pickle pebble on top in order to help keep all of the small cabbage pieces from floating around the pebble up to the top of the jar. If you have any pieces that float to the top once you put the pebble in, just go ahead and scoop them out. These are very easy to get in and out of the mason jars, which makes them really easy to use. An added bonus is they are extremely easy to clean with just a quick scrub and rinse. I haven't noticed any lingering smells or residues on any of the pebbles due to their nice, smooth finish.
Overall, I thought these were a bit pricey when I was debating whether or not to purchase them, but I would definitely purchase them again in a heartbeat. They have taken a lot of the fuss and worry out of my fermenting and have made the whole process much easier. I highly recommend them!

The weights came carefully padded, in a gift box, as pictured, with a thin cardboard box outside of that for additional protection. The weights seem a little expensive, at almost $5 each, but perhaps it is because it is a low-volume item. They seem to be of very good quality, very dense and heavy and not porous, and were packed with great care.
