Description

The ported version of our popular PET Plastic carboy. No more siphoning thanks the hole located 2 inches from the base of the unit. This version comes with our trusty plastic bucket spigot (FE347). To install the spigot you will need the installation tool (FE311A) to hold the nut in place as you thread in the spigot.

Your days of lugging heavy glass carboys around are over thanks to these plastic carboys! Our Plastic Carboys are made from 100% Virgin PET plastic, which is far more resistant to oxygen than regular plastic. They’re much lighter and safer than glass, which is good if you need to move your fermenter around the house to find the right temperature. Full carboys can be heavy and hard to maneuver and glass can break resulting in possible injury. In addition to being safer to handle, they’re more economical than glass as well. With no ribs on the sides, there’s no place for yeast and sediment to collect, making cleaning a breeze. We suggest cleaning them with an overnight PBW soak, shake, rinse, and sanitize. You’ll want to avoid vigorous scrubbing during cleaning to avoid scratches.
 
Two special features we love about our PET Carboys are the punted base and extra head space. The punted base makes the carboy easier to hold while carrying or pouring, and prevents sediment disturbance during transfers. The extra head space is a huge plus to make sure you have enough room for when your fermentation gets going.

Item arrived damaged
Although this carboy was smashed when it arrived, I contacted the vendor and they promptly sent a replacement! Great customer service, I will be back.

Spigot wrench is available
There is a plastic hex wrench made specifically for placement of the gasket and holding the nut while affixing the spigot. This wrench readily fits through the opening and is long enough to handle the three, five and six gallon carboys.

Handy product but.....
This size jug is very handy for doing 6lb meads. However, the spigot was not installed, and no instructions on how to tighten the nut inside the jug since the opening is too narrow for one's hand, and too deep for any conventional tool. Using various long lengths of wood, I was able to put enough pressure against the nut inside to effectively tighten the spigot so the seal wouldn't leak. Also the description does not mention the size of stopper needed for holding an airlock.

Response from MoreFlavor
Hello, thank you for your feedback! We offer a spigot wrench for those hard to reach areas in a carboy (item: FE311A). Also, a #10 stopper or 5 gallon carboy hood will work for this carboy.
