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.

What good was the spigot?
I needed a carbon quickly..... to rack my wine. The plastic carboy with the spigot was what I wanted/needed. To my surprise when I opened my package (with the spigot) the carboy didn’t have a hole for the spigot!
What good is the spigot?

Disappointing
Bought many of these for long term sour fermentation no and aging but found the spigot area is too weak to withstand the pressure of the beer for an extended period of time. Had several batches where the spigot broke off without provocation after holding a batch of beer for several years. Don’t waste your time with these. Use glass.
