If anyone out there bought weights that fit well in this crock (especially for sauerkraut making), please let me know which brand/size you bought.

The Ohio Stoneware #2 weights fit my #2 crock perfectly. The pic on Amazon shows #3, the description shows #1 and with luck you will get a #2 set like I did. Rec'd them today and they are already sitting on my cabbage. Good weights they are.

The ones they sell with it are good enough. Traditionally a crockery plate and a well scrubbed rock is used.

Sorry, I gave these as a gift and haven't gotten any feedback. If I hear anything, I'll post it. Happy crocking!

I have a Rachael Ray one I bought from QVC. Amazon probably sells them, or Chefs check in food prep.

I'm not with the company, but I am a fan of their products!I have a base and 2 of the 4qt stock pots. I think the base fits both their 4qt and the 2.3qt stock pots (I do not have the 2.3qt - but hope to rectify that soon!). I clicked on the link from your question and it looks like it is the link to the base+4qt. You can also go to their website to order 360cookware.com. I've always had good customer service from them and their product is the best I've ever used - the slow cooker is awesome, but make sure you use low temps - it is really amazing how 360 cookware can cook on lower temps. Just this week we used it to cook chicken with portobello and it was fantastic! I hope this helps!

You can buy the plates 1,2,3, or 4. It is up to your needs if you need a pair. I would go with rubber coated. I have had my wieghts for 4 years coat wears well, and is not as expensive as American Steel. I also have rubber coated dumbbells and they are the best I ever had.P.S. Body-Solid cuts out the middle man, so your are buying for less.

1" diameter weights work just fine. You can pick up some at academy or similar stores.

I just bought this set of weights and tried the lightest one. Not only does it not work for me, unlike you, I don't like these. I have the brand new set purchased two weeks ago. You are welcome to contact me at 920-379-9541. I'd be happy to sell you the weight you are looking for. Joan

Yes, we have a similar crock - narrow at the top and wider in the middle - and these weights are perfect. You feed them through the narrow part individually and then at the wider part they could either meet or overlap. I think with 6" you won't even need to overlap them. Hope that helps!

I have the 4 square cookware by HealthSmart. Purchased one piece from a salesman. Spent the next day experimenting cooking lots of stuff with that one pan. Next night called salesman and ordered more. Absolutely worth the money!

Sorry, I haven't used it in quite a while. But the weights are different sizes so you always have the option of making it heavier.

This crock will easily hold a medium to medium large head of cabbage. I'm curious, have you ever fermented a whole head before?

Hi, porchpotato. I don't own and haven't used this product, but I own a pair of similar RAWBuiltTech standard-size barbell collars. I don't have one of those interchangeable-plates dumbbell sets, but I can say this much: even a 25 LB (old) Weider weight plate and a pair of (much newer) 5 LB Weider plates (or "disks") press against the clamped-on barbell collar (when the barbell is tilted even moderately). The 35 LB weight-plate trio then causes the barbell collar to shift toward the end of the barbell sleeve, if only by a fraction of an inch. Oh, I know that virtually no-one is tough enough (or dexterous enough) to try handling and curling a 70 LB dumbbell set made with 25 LB weight plates, but I hope my reply is a bit useful ...

These bags are pretty large. I would measure the crock and see if these will fit. We use them in 6 and 7 quart crocks and the seem like they would fit large ones also. They seem to run big.

I bought mine at Walmart, the biggest one they had(I think 50"), but this is not a good time with all the christmas about the grill stuff goes away. You may find one at Home Depot or Lowes, just look for the biggest cover they have and it will probably fit or measure your grill total width and go from there. Really love my Swiss!

Unless you have a lot of veggies to pack into it I'd start off with the 5L size. The bigger the crock the heavier it is empty and when loaded its really, really a back breaker! So don't try to heft it from the floor without help (unless you lift weights). If you want to produce more you can always get a second 5L, that way you can have several different recipes going at the same time. Hope this helps a bit...

The split ceramic weights are available on our website, as well as amazon. Search for the sku: B00GF13K7I and you should be able to find them.Thanks!
