I imagine the cheapo smooshed marbles sold at the dollar store and craft stores for s little more for fake flower arrangements would work just as well.

Be careful though that the marbles are paint or glaze free.

You can use as much as two ounces of hops for a five gallon batch but one is enough to get the job done.
I have done this as well usually i ll wrap them in a cheesecloth or a part of an onion bag so they ll spread out and stay on top though.

Even if you re fermenting within a smaller environment like mason jar you ll need a weight to keep the produce.
The marbles or bpods will contain microsystems that can ldquo eavesdrop on biology rdquo.
But haven t tried it so i don t have personal experience.
The only equipment needed is a nylon hop bag a few clean glass marbles and about an ounce of hops.
Marbles tied a in cheesecloth or muslin marbles work well because they can easily fit whatever size or shape jar you are using.

Rocks the right size and shape rock will make a perfect weight.

Most traditional methods of lacto fermentation crocks barrels etc require keeping the produce submerged under the brine in order to protect it from bacteria that would otherwise rot the food the majority of fermenting crocks come with a weight that fits perfectly inside.
Bigger marbles will probably be easier because you won t have to remove so many when you re done.
Some great ideas for fermentation weights.
A small dish plus an additional weight place a small dish or a silicone cupcake liner on top of the prepared vegetables and weight down with a heavy object like food safe marbles pie weights or whiskey stones heavy enough to hold down your ferment.
Be sure to boil them first for about 20 minutes to kill any competing or harmful bacteria.
