Awesome! These will come in handy. Any pickling recipes you recommend? :-)

I fill the jar with cucumbers (russian picking cukes are my fav right now) then I add garlic and a bunch of random herbs, warm water, a teaspoon of vinegar (to kickstart the ferment) and a good amount of salt. You want to have between 2% and 5% salt by weight (including the veggies)
