Overview

A home fermenting shelf is where this wide mouth carboy lives. The sides are smooth with no ribs, the body is heavy PET plastic, and an air-tight one piece lid seals it with an O-ring.

The reason to buy is the complete kit: lid, drilled stopper, airlock and spare gasket come with the vessel. The limitation is a short spec list with no temperature or pressure rating given.

Who it's for

A small-batch brewer who values smooth walls and hand access for cleaning is the match. Those who prefer glass, or who need a larger vessel, should skip it.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Wide opening eases cleaning
  • Smooth sides, no ribs
  • Oxygen impermeable PET
  • Stopper and airlock included
Cons
  • Plastic, not glass
  • Temperature rating not listed
  • Lid hole limited to one stopper size

Performance notes

Oxygen cannot pass through the PET walls, and the one piece lid with its gasket seals the vessel while the twin bubble airlock lets fermentation gas out. Smooth sides without ribs mean yeast and sediment find nothing to stick to, so rinsing is easier. The wide mouth gives a hand room to scrub.
