E-Jen Fermentation Container

The inner plate acts as a barrier that pushes your vegetables down into their own brine while expelling excess air. By minimizing oxygen exposure, it creates the anaerobic environment necessary for lacto-fermentation to thrive, which helps prevent surface mold and spoilage.

While traditional ceramic onggi are excellent for fermentation, the E-Jen container is significantly lighter, easier to handle, and dishwasher-safe. It offers the same functional benefits of light-blocking and airtight storage but with the convenience of modern, durable plastic.

The adjustable inner plunger is designed to be moved to any height, meaning you can ferment smaller batches effectively. As long as the plunger is pressed down to submerge the vegetables in brine, the vacuum seal will function correctly regardless of the container's fill level.

The E-Jen container is made from high-quality, non-porous food-grade plastic designed to resist odor absorption. However, like most plastics, it is best to wash it thoroughly with warm, soapy water immediately after emptying to keep it fresh for your next batch.

Maintenance is minimal. Once you have packed your vegetables and secured the vacuum lid, you simply need to store it in a cool, dark place. You do not need to 'burp' the container frequently, as the air nozzle helps manage gas buildup.
