i had issues with my ferment mash staying completely submerged under the brine. I would put a ziploc with water on top but this only weighed down some of the mash alot of it would find its way to the surface.....if anybody figured out a genius idea to weigh down the mash please share. i don't want to use cabbage...

I like the pie weight idea. I'm looking for a large crock for bigger batchs. I was wondering what to use for a weight. This seems like it would do the trick for way less money than most want for a fermentation weight.
