## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice product
*by I***. on April 9, 2025*

The cups were shorter than I needed but they fit perfectly in my wide mouth jar. I will not have any issues getting it out of the jar or having to stick my fingers in the jar to pull the cup out. Imagine condiment cups but with slits on the side. I love the fact that there is a hole for overflow or to refill your jar. I used two. One in a jar with lemon, honey, and ginger, the other with Kefir grains in milk.I had to put extra holes in the Kefir cup as I didn't want milk sitting in the cup and possibly making my jar go bad. The single hole does not allow every drop of liquid to drain back into the jar. Nothing a soldering iron didn't fix.Thanks for "Our Daily Bread." I have not seen this great read in years.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Much better than nappa cabbage leaves
*by M***. on January 1, 2020*

They are working great. They are so easy and fit the jar perfectly and fit between the silicone fermentation lids and the Masontops Tough Band. They have made fermenting extremely easy for me. I always make sure that I have enough liquid in the jar so that when these cups are in the mouth of the jar and pushed down into place the level of the liquid rises inside the cup about 1/4 of an inch or about 7 millimeters. They are not flimsy. Yes they are thin but they need to be to fit with the fermentation lid and then the final band to screw on. They are thin but strong and well designed. I understand that the makers read these comments and make upgrades and improvements. So I know they added the small holes in the bottom to let water come in, but some small air bubbles still get trapped beneath the flat bottom. I wonder if a mesh design similar to the plastic sprouting lids for mason jars. That would keep all of the veggies down but let the water flow and not allow for any trapped air. I really like these. I used to use different types of vegetables to put on top of my fermented veggies and it was a small pain. This is just so easy now.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Renders fermentation weights obsolete!
*by J***T on March 15, 2017*

I enjoy homemade sauerkraut daily as a delicious snack and probiotic supplement. I also give some away to friends here and there. As such, I've always got multiple jars fermenting. No matter how you shred or pack the cabbage, it will always expand and float upwards when the copious carbon dioxide bubbles form during the initial fermentation stages. Fermentation weights do help, but won't stop it completely. I wish I'd discovered these little cups a long time ago. They completely prevent the cabbage from rising in the jar by presenting a solid physical barrier to it, versus merely weighting it down a little.They are made of a thin, light plastic very much like disposable drinking cups are made from. While they do appear somewhat on the flimsy side, they are nevertheless more than adequate for their intended purpose and I've never had one crack or split. As far as I can tell, they should be infinitely reusable. Their design is simple yet ingenious; the bottom edge is ringed with 'teeth' that retain your vegetables in place, and two small slots in the side wall allow CO2 to bubble out to your airlock.I purchased the widemouth size cups, and their top lip indeed fits a standard widemouth mason jar perfectly. I use them together with QRP's silicone airlock grommets and jar lid seals, which together with standard water airlocks form a flawless, foolproof fermentation system for mason jars.
