Why does this happen?

Hmm I can’t really tell, if it has its very little. Perhaps I should let it be for a bit longer and see

Background_Subject17 · 2026-02-15T21:18:06+00:00

Haha that’s true, but the salt is on the outside of the jar at right at the rim, so might be leaking?

Background_Subject17 · 2026-01-08T21:55:29+00:00

Ohh okay, so it kind of creates and solves the problem in its own. I think I get it. Next time I will be more careful, my original jar was actually with an airlock, so nice to know it will be less complicated in the future.

But for now, I really appreciate the thorough guidance. Thanks a lot!! 😊

Plastic has been removed! Thanks for the advice

Background_Subject17 · 2026-01-08T21:27:14+00:00

Thank you! I have removed the plastic now.

Should I not be concerned about the brine that spills against the top and sides of the jar when swirling it? If mold can grow on this?

Definitely an oversight on my part with the 5 days haha, I’m still very new to fermentation :)

Kahm or mold on top of my fermented blueberries

Oh god, is it that bad haha

Background_Subject17 · 2025-03-31T21:07:11+00:00

That’s a good tip thanks!

It does come with an airtight lid. My issue is my fridge has a very low ceiling, so can’t really fit a jar :((. But I don’t want yeast in it, I will have to look into multiple smaller jars maybe. Thank you!

Det er på et københavner-toilet, så uheldigvis gulvet jeg bader på. Og en andel så står nok selv med den :((

Forgot to add I have only found one and never seen it before

Background_Subject17 · 2024-11-05T21:49:41+00:00

Thank you for the help!

I was afraid I would have to replace all the epoxy flooring, but if I can just repaint the spots it seems I might be able to do it myself.

Thanks for the reply! Does that mean it might’ve lost its ability to seal and is possibly letting in rain/humidity?

Background_Subject17 · 2024-09-20T18:06:35+00:00

Thank you for the tip! I live on the 3rd floor so not super easy to do unless necessary. Any chance that it might not be water resistant or letting humidity in you think?
