  • Silicone Bung for Small Barrel - Breathable Silicone Bung for Small Barrel - Breathable

    Silicone Bung for Small Barrel - Breathable

    2 reviews

    Silicone bungs offer a number of advantages over traditional rubber or even wood bungs. They are more durable, grippier and tighter fitting, and won't stain or absorb wine odors over time. When the two-piece is set to the open position, the bung acts as an airlock and allows the release of CO2 while maintaining a seal against oxygen coming in. This makes the bung ideal for alcoholic or malolactic fermentation. When fermentation is over and you no longer want the bung to "breath" out, you just push the center cap into the bung to create a firm seal and the FE489 becomes a solid stopper! This size bung is designed to fit a most barrels under 30 gal, including the 6.1gal Vadai, and our plastic carboys. We always recommend measuring your barrel's bung hole prior to purchasing. Dimensions are 1 7/8" tapering down to 1 1/2".

  • Premium Breathable Silicone Carboy Hood

    Premium Breathable Silicone Carboy Hood

    8 reviews

    We recently discovered this premium breathable silicone carboy hood and were immediately impressed with its robust design and features. To start with, the hood is designed to fit over the top of your carboy so you never have to worry about an airlock/stopper popping off of your carboy (which seems to always happen to us the morning after pressing...but that's another story). Where the hood really shines is in its two-piece design. When set to the open position, the bung acts as an airlock and allows the release of CO2 while maintaining a seal against oxygen coming in. This makes the bung ideal for alcoholic or malolactic fermentations. When fermentation is over and you no longer want the bung to "breathe" out, you just push the center cap into the bung to create a firm seal and the FE496 becomes a solid stopper! The FE496 fits all of our glass carboys and our 5 gallon and 6 gallon "Better Bottles".

  • FerMonster 7 Gallon Carboy FerMonster 7 Gallon Carboy

    FerMonster 7 Gallon Plastic Carboy

    17 reviews

    Carboys are great, but they have some issues: They require funnels to get liquid in, and cleaning brushes to clean up after.  They hold a decent volume, but all are a bit undersized for fermentation, and have no inherent measuring system.  Glass Carboys are breakable, while plastic carboys scratch with the first brush cleaning.  The Fermonster leaves all these problems behind, and still sells for less than $30.  These Fermonster Plastic Carboy Fermenters are made from heavy PET plastic, the same used in 2 L soda bottles, which is nearly impermeable to oxygen penetration.  The smooth ribless walls are a feature that reduces yeast and sediment buildup, and imbedded are volume markers at five, six, and 7 gallons.  The huge 4" opening makes filling a breeze, and cleanup is as easy as wiping down the inside.  The 7 gallon is a monster of a fermenter, reducing blowoff issues seen with standard carboys.  Glass carboys are fragile, and this is nothing like that.  The hefty plastic construction will hold up to brew day abuse; and while movement is manageable, these can be upgraded with our Carboy Carrier. These fermentors are completely air-tight; the bodies constructed of heavy, oxygen impervious P.E.T. plastic, and the lids sealed tight with an O-Ring.  Additional O-Rings and Lids both with and without holes are available for purchase, see our You Might Also Need items below. Features: 4" inner diameter wide mouth carboy - easy to clean! Food grade PET plastic construction is impermeable to Oxygen penetration Volume Markers at 5, 6, and 7 Gallons O-Ring and Lid with one hole is included (Fits #10 Stopper) Additional O-Rings and Lids available Weight: 1.5 lbs Temperature Limit: 140° F Height: 20.9 inches Diameter: 11.3 inches Completely taste and odor free Perfect for Beer, Wine, Cider, Mead, Kombucha or any other fermented beverage! Thick walls for better oxygen barrier.

  • Fermonster 6 Gallon Carboy - Ported Fermonster 6 Gallon Carboy - Ported

    FerMonster 6 Gallon Carboy With Spigot

    29 reviews

    The Ported Fermonster is a brand new fermenter designed specifically for fermentation. We gave product feedback for over 2 years of development and we think they nailed the design. The large lid allows for easy filling and makes hop or oak additions a breeze. The smooth sides are fantastic for sanitization - no ribs or texture to collect yeast or bacteria.  The 6 gallon size is great for most fermentations, and the larger 7 gallon is available for even bigger beers. The punted bottom allows sediment to collect to the sides so that you can siphon liquid from the center.  Because they are made from virgin PET plastic they nearly unbreakable and a lot safer than similar glass carboys. Also notice the conical top which reduces surface area if you plan to store beer or wine long term.   These ported versions come with our plastic spigot (FE347), allowing for easy racking and sampling! Made from heavy PET plastic, the same material used in 2 L soda bottles, which is nearly impermeable to oxygen penetration.  Due to the thickness of the material and the overall geometry the Fermonster does not require ribs or dimples for stability.  That results in a super smooth interior surface that reduces yeast and sediment buildup making it the easiest to clean, most sanitary PET carboy on the market.  The huge 4" opening makes filling a breeze, and cleanup is as easy as wiping down the inside.  Fermonsters are easily moved by hand or consider using our Carboy Carrier for even greater ease of use. These fermentors are completely air-tight and the lids sealed tight with an O-Ring.  Additional O-Rings and Lids both with and without holes are available for purchase, see our You Might Also Need items below. Features: 4" wide mouth carboy - easy to clean! Ported version inlcudes spigot for easy racking Food grade PET plastic construction is nearly impermeable to oxygen penetration No hard to clean dimples or ribs Volume Markers at 5 and 6 Gallons Punted bottom for less sediment transfer during racking O-Ring and Lid with one hole is included (Fits #10 Stopper) Additional O-Rings and Lids available Weight: 1.5 lbs Temperature Limit: 140° F Height: 19.25 inches Diameter: 11.25 inches Completely taste and odor free Perfect for Beer, Wine, Cider, Mead, Kombucha or any other fermented beverage!

    Got a stuck lid on your Fermonster? Get it open much easier with this specially designed lid opener. It easily slides onto the lid and gives you comfortable hand grips to open a stuck lid. Note: We do not recommend using this tool to tighten the lid because the seal is made by the o-ring and not the pressure between the lid and neck.

    Made in Italy, these are premium glass carboys are set apart from others because the glass has a more uniform thickness with less inclusions.

    $65.99

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.

In addition to glass, we also offer a plastic 5 and 6 gallon plastic carboy as well. This is not your usual plastic! These are made out of special polyethylene terephthalate copolymer (PET) plastic and are BPA-free, DEHP-free, and plasticizer-free. This means:
  • 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).
