The kit works on regular and wide-mouth mason jars and comes in the form of a water-less airlock that caps off the jars. It allows for people to add nutrients and flavor to their food through the use of [lacto-fermentation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brine-time) that optimizes taste and health by converting sugar to lactic acid and creating carbon dioxide while preventing oxygen from coming into the jar. The DIY fermentation kit requires no maintenance during the process, is rust and BPA-free and is economical. This kit allows for lovers of [fermented products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kraut-chi) to create a wide array of different foods with minimal effort at home. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.7/10 - Popularity: 95% | Activity: 99% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **DIY Fermentation Kits:** Make fermented foods at home with this kit - **Lacto-fermentation:** Transform food with lacto-fermentation process - **Home Food Preservation:** Preserve food items at home with fermentation kits ### Sectors Adopting This - **Food and Beverage:** Capitalizing on the trend towards home food preservation - **Home Goods:** DIY food kits are a natural extension in home goods - **Eco-friendly Products:** Rust and BPA-free fermenter can appeal to those looking for eco-friendly options ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Fermentation Countertop Vessels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/keep.md) - [DIY Tepache Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/diy-tepache.md) - [Diy Kombucha- Making Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kombuchamaking-kits.md) - [Make-at-Home Kimchi Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kimchi-kits.md) - [Fermentation Brewing Home Appliances](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kombu-fermenstation.md) - [Sourdough Bread Solutions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kefirko-sourdough-fermenter.md) - [DIY Hard Cider Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hard-cider-brewing-kit.md) - [Customizable Hot Sauce Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/craftly-diy-hot-sauce-kit.md) - [At-Home Kombucha Machines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kombu.md)
