Keep your Kimchi tasting Fresh
[Lock & Lock] Breathing Kimchi Containers - Stainless Steel
Introducing.... Lock & Lock's New Breathing Kimchi Container!
This new container has a patented air valve which expels fermentation gases that are released by Kimchi as it ages in the refrigerator.
The breathing valve also prevents any external air from entering the container.
This produces a controlled environment in which the Kimchi can ferment at an even, slow pace. The moisture is locked in and that crunchy texture of fresh cabbage lasts for longer!
The container is made in Korea using Stainless Steel (premium grade 304).
The container will not stain or absorb any smells, which makes clean-up so easy!
The lid has a silicon lining that makes the container leak-proof! You can store all types of Kimchi - including Water Kimchi (물김치)
The lid is also transparent - you can check on the status of your kimchi without opening it!
If you eat or make Kimchi regularly, consider purchasing a special container for it.
This premium container is available in a variety of sizes - select one.
Holding capacity for each container is listed below.
__
Gochujar Editor Note: After receiving the container, please remove the sticker from the valve. This breathing container will continuously release gas by itself in its normal (closed) position - no need to open or close the valve manually!
If for some reason, you want to manually release a build-up of fermentation gases (or for cleaning) - turn the valve counter-clockwise. To tighten back to its normal (closed) position, turn clock-wise.
Handwash Only — do NOT use in dishwasher, as lid may warp.
Customer Reviews
I’ve been making my Kimchi at home for years now and oh God what haven’t I tried, from glass jars to Korea made Kimchi plastic containers, the smell will always make it to the all other foods in my fridge, but this container keeps the kimchi fresh, completely sealed (I traveled for 4 hours taking one with me!) that even the smell doesn’t leak!
Great Product!
I've been looking for stainless steel containers for a while now and that's actually how I found Gochujar. I got the 2,4L container one and couldn't be more pleased. I've used it a few times for a big batch of Radish Kimchi and it works great. For reference: the pictures show the container filled with about 1,8kg of cubed Kohl Rabi (I can't always find good quality Diakon or Korean Radish). The containers are easy to clean and I love how practical the handle is. I'll definitely be getting a second one but then perhaps a smaller size.
I was looking for a good quality stainless kimchi container. I found it. I am absolutely satisfied.
Très pratiques et hygiéniques ! Je ne pouvais pas mieux trouver! Je vais m en recommander encore quelques uns de différentes tailles après avoir essayé.

[Lock & Lock] Breathing Kimchi Containers
LocknLock's Breathing Kimchi Containers
Helps kimchi to ferment at an even, consistent pace
Containers come with LocknLock's patented Breathing Valve™ technology

Made with Korean Stainless Steel (304)
Non-Staining & Smell-Free
These containers are made of Premium Stainless Steel (Type 304).
The container will not stain or absorb any smells - simple to clean!
Patented Breathing Valve™
The valve releases any fermentation gases that build-up in the container
At the same time, it prevents any external air from entering the container
No need to manually open or close the valve - the valve will automatically release a build up of gas in its normal (closed) position!
Why do I need the Breathing Valve?
Kimchi - as it ferments - releases gases into the air
These gases accelerate fermentation - making the overall look and taste change quickly
When these gases are removed, the Kimchi ferments in a more evenly controlled environment.
Kimchi is juicier, contains higher levels of probiotics and retains that "fresh" crunchy taste for much longer
IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ:
- Before first use, remove the factory sticker on the air valve.
- After removing the sticker, there is nothing more to do!
- No need to manually open or close the valve - the valve will automatically release a build up of gas in its normal (closed) position!
- If for some reason, you want to release gas manually (or for washing), you can open the valve by twisting counter-clock wise
- Return to it's normal (closed) position by turning clockwise, until it locks into place
- IMPORTANT: Please handwash - the lid will warp if placed into a dishwasher!
Snap-on wings (easy to use)
+ silicon-lined lid (leakproof!)
The lid has durably-built, snap-on wings - locks into place securely!
Silicone-lined lid for leak-proof storage - great for storing all types of Kimchi including "Water Kimchi"
Transparent Lid
The lid is transparent so you can easily check on your Kimchi without opening it!
Dome-shaped lid
As opposed to a flat-lid, you can fit more Kimchi into these containers!
(Especially useful for large batches of radish kimchi or ponytail radish kimchi
Large handles for easy-carry
The handles are built to last - they will not break or damage
Easy to carry large weights of Kimchi in/out of the refrigerator
