Oak Barrel (3L-5L) w/ Lid — Wooden Container for Pickles | Fermentation Bucket

About this barrel

If you ferment in small batches, this new oak barrel with lid is a wooden container in the 3L-5L range, sized for pickles on the counter, kimchi-style vegetables or a first fermenting crock. The lid keeps dust out and helps keep conditions steady for the brine.

What size oak fermentation bucket do you need?

The title gives a range of 3L-5L, but the item details show 3.0L, so confirm which size you'll get before you order.

• Best for: a few jars' worth of cucumbers, peppers or garlic in brine.
• Prep: soak it with water so the staves swell and stop leaking.
• Weight stone: not mentioned, so plan to use a plate or weight to keep vegetables under the brine.
• Price: $180.00, new.

A tidy, kitchen-friendly way to try fermenting in wood without a big barrel.
