Weck Tulip Jar - Single 1-Liter Jar

Jars are a nice size. The opening is wide so they are easy to clean. Multi functional & versatile ! These jars have been used for storage and the figs & cereal remained fresh. They are a big size for a drinking glass. So far they have been durable hopefully they will continue to be. The only negative: the jars come with three clamps to close. It would be nice if a few extra clamps were included in case one got lost. Over all very happy with these jars

Love this jar! Perfect for sourdough starter with the wide lid. Would definitely recommend. Works great from countertop to fridge.

So I bought this jar with the intent to use it for sourdough Starter. It's the perfect shape (with the curved bottom and wide mouth), for sourdough, and honestly, after taking the rubber ring out and throwing it, and the metal clasps in my kitchen drawer, (you only need to set the lid on top for sourdough, not to seal it shut), it was perfect. The ONLY problem I have with this jar is it's size. It was great while my starter was, well, starting, but once it started to get bubbly and active? It's just too small, and would keep bubbling out. I go with a ratio of 200 grams starter, to 200 g Water and 200 g Flour. That gets me enough starter for making 2 loaves of bread, and on days I'm not baking bread, it gives me enough starter for breakfast. While I don't feel like 600 grams in the jar total should be too much, perhaps my starter is just extra active, because it now just keeps bubbling out of the jar. I have had to switch to a half gallon wide mouthed canning jar, which is extremely disappointing, and is harder to work with and just the wrong shape. Should Weck make a 1.5 L Tulip Jar or a 2 L Tulip Jar, I'll be on that instantly and pay whatever I'd need to pay, as it would be EVERYTHING I've ever wanted in a Sourdough Starter jar. But for now, I would say it's a perfect jar for everything except sourdough starter. :( That said, I do still really love this jar, and while I haven't really tested the rubber seal or clips, I would recommend it for any other jar related purposes.

Try attractive jar and quality appears good

Excellent quality jar. Although, I did end up returning it when I came to my senses and realized I paid $20 for a jar. (I went to Dollar tree the following day and bought a similar shaped jar for $1.25)
