I finally tried using a glass weight versus just a cabbage leaf to keep my kimchi submerged.
After my last batch got moldy, using a 2-pound glass weight from my local kitchen shop kept everything under the brine perfectly for three weeks, so what's your go-to method for keeping ferments down?

My last batch of sauerkraut got a nasty film on top. Ruined the whole jar. Switched to a heavy glass pickle pebble, the kind with a handle. It's smaller than a dish but dense. Nothing floats up now, and it's easy to clean. Total game changer for my ferments.

You bought a two pound weight just for kimchi? That's a serious piece of gear. I just use a small ceramic dish that fits inside the jar. It works fine and I already had it in the cupboard.
