SOLIGT 12" Sauerkraut Pounder for Mason Jars Vegetable Fermentation- One Piece of Solid Wood

The story: I’ve been looking for a descent pestle and mortar for ages; something that had been used, so was perusing online auctions. The majority of mortars I found were small, 3-4” high and not that much more across. When I did find something size wise, it was extraordinarily expensive. Invariably it was something used by apothecaries from days gone by, which meant it was made to last (and has) and the asking price was set accordingly. So I turned to Amazon to see what was available. And Voila! The Soligt 12” Sauerkraut Pounder... You’re obviously puzzled at my decision I know... I came to the conclusion that as I can’t find exactly what I am looking for at a price I am willing to pay, that the quest should be viewed from a different perspective; I have many sturdy substantial bowls which could fit the bill, so all I really require is a descent size pestle Ü The product: A 12” solid and substantial, ergonomically crafted piece of equipment in beech wood, which sits in the hand comfortably and will come in handy when I start fermenting; so will have a dual purpose in my kitchen. It is heavy enough to use as a pestle, which is the main reason I purchased it; having two different sized ends it is practical too. The verdict: Excellent for crushing wet aromatics (garlic, ginger etc) and spices that require a little crushing after dry toasting, without difficulty... And no doubt packing ferments when I get around to it; at a cost of £11.99 it is money well spent and very Highly Recommended.

It does the job ! I recommend this product.

No company brand name show.Its like local product.

The weight make it easy to pound the cabbage without having to use much force.

Tenía mis reservas. Efectivamente me ayudó a comprimir toda la verdura al 50% de su volumen!! Vale la pena! Costoso, pero vale la pena :)
