Description

  • Wide mouth carboys are the easiest glass fermenter to clean with plenty of room to get your arm inside to scrub
  • Add bagged flavoring additions and remove them freely when finished—this can be nearly impossible with traditional narrow neck glass carboys
  • Watch fermentation activity as it's happening! The ultimate advantage of translucent glass or plastic fermenters
  • Ported lid with removable cap sized for a #5 stopper & airlock
  • Carrying harness included for easier handling

Glass carboys have been a staple of the brewing and winemaking world for generations, but traditional tight neck carboys aren't without their limitations. Standard glass carboys can be difficult to clean after fermentation and require a siphon or racking cane to transfer liquid out. The wide mouth carboy is extremely easy to clean—simply removing the lid allows you to get your hand or arm all the way inside to scrub away stubborn sediment. And with a convenient spigot at the bottom, you can transfer liquid out of the vessel with ease.

Each carboy comes with a carrying harness. See below for optional stainless steel spigots.

Features:

  • Gasketed lid for tight seal
  • Included carrying harness
  • Ported lid ready for #5 stopper & airlock
  • Plastic spigot with 3/8" OD barb (tapers from 10-12mm)

Please note: The carrying harness should not be used to move the vessel when full. The airlock lid is primarily recommended for short fermentations.

SPIGOT LEAKS
great sturdy carboy, but the spigot leaks. Didn't overtighten it none, went as far as I could with my hands and it still leaks. Two other reviews mentioned the same issue, so you can be assured it's a model problem. I already made the must so thankfully I didn't see with during fermentation although now I have to find a new carboy. Would not recommend.

love the wide mouth
Love the glass for more assured hygiene, love the widemouth for cleaning and adding post-boil ingredients. I wonder actually why not all glass carbouys have a wide mouth like this!

Plastic lid screws on, bubblers with a gasket fit well, spigot is tight.

The harness is stronger than described, but I'm not sure I'd trust it full. Also, call me stupid but I can confirm that it can't take a boiling temp wort, learned the hard way.

But it just meant that I replaced it with two more!

Very easy to clean. For longer ferments is nice to be able to replace the airlock with the screw on lid. Only problem with it was the included spigot does not have a spacer, so my first fermentation in this vessel was leaking which caused back flow in my airlock, but after replacing the spigot with one I had on hand, I've had no leaking with any further brews.

Easily cracked
Filled up the carboy and noticed a small leak coming from the spigot joint. Tightened the nut and the glass cracked. Wasn't even that much pressure but the glass is really fragile. Really a shame because the spigot is a great concept to streamline liquid transfer?
