Used as both fermenters and storage containers, carboys are the work horses of the winery! Our traditional glass carboy is available in 1, 3, 5, and 6 gallon sizes to cover a wide variety of tasks (such as safely storing topping wines or running small experimental batches). Matching sizes of stoppers and airlocks are available in our Stoppers, Airlocks & Carboy Accessories section.
- The carboy is very strong (it will not break if dropped when full of liquid!)
- Taste and odor-free, they will not absorb or impart any color or odors.
- Essentially impermeable to oxygen
- Light weight
- This special PET formula is "hydrophobic" (non-wetting), which means it is extremely easy to clean
Note: While safe to use with any of the usual sanitizers (Star-San, Sani-Clean, PBW, and SO2, PET plastic should not be heated above 125 F (52 C).
