Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Lacto-fermentation is one of the oldest and safest food preservation methods. The lactic acid produced by beneficial bacteria creates an environment where harmful pathogens cannot survive. Fermentio includes safety guidance and troubleshooting to help you ferment with confidence.

No. A glass jar, non-iodized salt, filtered water, and fresh vegetables are all you need. Fermentio calculates the rest.

It separates fermentation and flavoring into two steps. Step 1 uses a high-salt brine (10%) to lock in crunchiness. Step 2 is a cold infusion in the fridge where you add your chosen flavors. The result: maximum crunch, infinite flavor combinations.
