23 Litre Glass Carboy

Glass Carboy — 23 Litre

An Italian-made, straight-sided traditional glass carboy — a great step up from a demijohn when you're producing larger batches. Glass carboys have long been the preferred fermentation vessel for serious homebrewers, and it's easy to see why.

Use as a primary fermenter for beer or cider (with a blow-off hose) or as a secondary fermenter for wine. If handled carefully, a glass carboy will last decades.

Advantages

• Airtight — impervious to oxygen that can harm your homebrew
• Easy to sanitise and odour-free
• Doesn't scratch easily with careful cleaning
• Especially popular for bulk aging wine before bottling

Specifications

• Diameter: 28cm
• Maximum height: 56cm
• Neck external: 55mm
• Neck internal: 32mm
• Max volume: approx. 25 litres

Important Notes

• There is a small casting line at the base of the fermenter on the outside — this is normal and does not affect performance
• Do not subject to extreme or rapid temperature changes
• The neck diameter is slightly wider than a standard 5L demijohn — standard demijohn bungs will not fit. See our Rubber Airlock Holder Bung (Large) for a suitable option (check sizing before ordering)

In common with all glass products, there is an attendant risk of breakage in transit. We have minimised this risk and will rectify any breakage for UK shipments only.
