Acetic bacteria (Acetobacter aceti… and others) transform, in the presence of oxygen, the ethanol of an alcoholic beverage into acetic acid… The “spiciness” of vinegar. Here is the ideal container to put acetization into practice! This beautifully turned and delicately ringed vinegar maker is made of deep, shiny black glazed ceramic. It will suit all culinary experiences as well as kitchen decor!

It is a beautiful everyday, artisanal and authentic object. The vinegar maker is in very good condition, with no cracks or losses. It has a cup on the top, the small tap is to be added. It is signed backwards by the potter. A few million acetic bacteria can be supplied on simple request to facilitate the start of the acetizing process!
