DESIGNED TO PERFECTION: ChouAmi is an innovative fermentation device which fits onto a beautiful and durable French-made glass jar by Le Parfait. Conceptualized by Chef Karen Diggs, the design is based on traditional fermentation crocks in use for centuries. The integrated water moat and spring press system act as an efficient airlock, keeping the contents submerged below the brine level to provide a clean environment for food. Revitalize the ancient craft of fermentation with a modern twist! LIVE A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE: Now more than ever your body needs a healthy gut to protect your longevity.
