The Italian Glass Carboy, 6 Gallon is a classic glass fermenter for homebrewers who prefer glass over plastic. Thick, high-clarity glass lets you easily monitor fermentation activity, clarity, and sediment levels. The 6-gallon size provides enough volume for 5-gallon batches, with some headspace for fermentation and transfers.
This carboy uses a #6.5 or #7 rubber stopper, making it compatible with standard airlocks and blowoff tubing. Glass has excellent oxygen barrier properties and a smooth interior surface that is easy to sanitize and does not scratch like plastic.
Use it for primary or secondary fermentation, long-term conditioning, and aging of beer, cider, wine, or mead. Pair it with a compatible stopper, airlock, and carboy handle or hauling strap for safe lifting.
