Masontops Unboxing – Fermentation Made Easy

Masontops Unboxing Review YouTube
Watch the Masontops Unboxing on YouTube

Can you believe that I just learned about Masontops?!?  And by the way…This is NOT a sponsored post.  I actually bought this product for myself.

I have always taken a very simple path when it comes to fermenting.  Using canning jars with canning lids and rings, plus a small 4-ounce jelly jar as a weight, has been my usual method.

Enter “Masontops”

However, my old way may take a back seat to something new I just discovered—the Masontops Complete Mason Jar Fermentation Kit. The box states that it’s filled with what I like to call a “krautpounder”, four glass weights, and four clever little silicon lids.  These lids are designed to keep oxygen away from the ferments while letting the carbon dioxide escape.

So what’s in the box?

In this YouTube video, I open the box and share what the contents look like. I’ll admit…I’m impressed and look forward to giving it a try.  I especially like the silicon lids that will eliminate the daily need of loosening the canning lids to release the build-up of carbon dioxide.  And hopefully, they’ll prevent the sometimes messy overflow that can happen with fermentations.

When you forget to loosen the lids and then attempt the task after a few days, things can get out of hand!!  You can watch the mess I made in this video. 😉
