xElevate Home Fermentation with Humble House
Turn kitchen activity into a traditional craft with the Humble House 2L fermentation crock kit. This ceramic crock invites you to make sauerkraut, kimchi, and pickles using a time-honored method that fits modern kitchens. The lid works with a water channel to form a gentle airlock, letting gases escape while keeping dust and unwanted air out. The result is a clean, steady environment that supports flavorful ferments without constant monitoring.
What makes this crock special
Designed for real-life kitchens, the 2 liter capacity translates to manageable batches. The crock spans about 6 inches across and 8 inches tall, and it can handle over 3 pounds of vegetables per batch, yielding up to roughly four standard mason jars. This balance of size and form makes it a practical choice for beginners and seasoned fermenters alike.

Durability and craft are central. The crock is thick, high quality ceramic finished with a lead- and cadmium-free glaze. The glaze helps resist oxidation and maintains a stable temperature, while the stoneware looks naturally warm in any kitchen. Humble House designs and the craftsmanship come from Milwaukee based family makers, reflecting a focus on sturdy, long-lasting fermentation gear.
Everything you need is included for a complete fermentation session. The kit arrives with an 11.75 inch wooden pounder for packing vegetables into the brine, and two fully glazed weights that keep your food submerged for even coverage. The weights seal well and are easy to clean, helping minimize staining and smells during fermentation.
Using Humble House Fermentation Crock is straightforward and inviting. After shredding cabbage and salting, pack the mix into the crock, press with the pounder to release brine, add the weights, fill the water channel, and cover with the lid. Clean up is simple thanks to the glaze and durable construction. This kit is a practical companion for home cooks who enjoy hands-on, small batch fermenting.
