The very best pickles, deli-style full and half sours, classic dills, fiery hot pickles, get their signature snap, crunch, and tart pucker from lactose-fermentation, and this kit makes it easy to make amazing pickles at home. Reusable time-after-time, this kit contains a 1/2 gallon farming jar, fermentation weight, lid with airlock (an essential for the anaerobic process), and more, and makes making the most delicious pickles nearly fool proof.
