Weck Tulip Jars 1 Liter - Large Sourdough Starter Jars with Wide Mouth, Glass Lids and Keep Fresh Covers - Suitable for Canning and Storage (2 Pack)

Both the tulip and the straight versions of these Weck jars are absolutely made for sourdough starters. The wide mouth and lack of ridges make it perfect for scraping down the sides of the jar. They are a breeze to clean. The lid can be made airtight by using the rubber gasket and fastening it all with metal clips. It can also be used with just the glass lid, which allows for pressure to escape when fermenting a sourdough starter. There is plenty of room for your starter to grow and be happy in this 1-liter jar. The only drawback is that these jars are a bit pricy on Amazon. If you're able to get them in person, you could definitely get a better deal for your money. Thankfully, mine arrived undamaged after shipping.

These jars are great for starter - I use them every day. So easy to clean and dry. Going to order another set with the straight sides to see if they are easier to handle.

So worth it! I’m able to make two loafs of sourdough from one size jar so it’s less work for sure. They are so nice and the fact that you can seal or unseal the lid is cool, could be neat for pick nicks

I bought this set of two Weck jars to use for my sourdough starter. Each week, I take out 50-75 grams of starter to feed in one jar, marked with a green rubberband to indicate the starting level, and use for my next loaf of bread. I put the discard in the other jar (with a purple rubber band around it to mark the level) to use in biscuits, waffles, English muffins, etc throughout the week. It’s a great system to keep my sourdough well-fed and maintained. The jars have nice, wide mouths, which makes it easy to get the starter in and out. They’re thick, sturdy glass that won’t break if you bump them into something or tap a spoon against the edge. I use the glass lid and rubber gasket without the clips, so the gasses released by my starter don’t build up pressure inside the jar. It is exactly what I needed, and I’m glad I went with this option, rather than some of the plastic options I saw labeled as sourdough starter jars. Both jars (my active and my discard) live on the top shelf in my refrigerator, since I usually don’t bake bread more than once a week, and don’t want to have to feed/discard every day. I usually feed Friday evening and leave the active jar out overnight to double, then bake with it on Saturday.

I absolutely love these jars. They are perfect for sourdough starter and storage of it.

Really loving these jars. Perfect size for my sourdough, and love being able to rotate them when the one in use needs to be washed.

Bought for my sourdough starter and it worked perfectly, I love that it’s got a smooth top and sides!

Nice and big. Brought for someone and they love it.

Son lo que estaba buscando, de muy buenos materiales!

This jar came recommended for keeping sourdough starters. It really makes using sourdough so easy. First of all the mouth is big so it is easy to feed and scoop out! It is also big enough to give room for the sourdough to expand without overflow. I love it! But not so big that it takes up so much room in our fridge.

Well made, perfect size and wide mouth for storing, feeding and stirring sourdough starter.

Great size and quality for sour dough bread starter! I have 4 of these jars and rotate them every few days. Comes out clean in the dishwasher. Have to make sure to wipe as much flour as you can though to protect the pipes.

Perfect for sourdough Starter. They are strong not to worry about breaking.
