DIAH DO IT AT HOME 10L Wide Neck Glass Demijohn Carboy with Plastic Basket - Clear Fermenter Jug for Bulk Homebrew Wine Making, Fruit Fermentation & Wash Storage

• VERSATILE WIDE-MOUTH BOTTLE: A glass demijohn is an excellent vessel for fermenting wine, beer, and mead. It’s also perfect for storing liqueurs, spirits, pickles, and jams. It provides a clear view of the fermentation process.
• EXCEPTIONAL EASE OF USE: The wide opening allows you to easily fit your hand inside. This makes the container extremely easy to clean, fill, and empty-a key feature when working with large fruits, vegetables, and thick pulp.
• SAFE, CERTIFIED GLASS: This vessel is made of thicker soda-lime glass certified for contact with food and alcohol. The flask is available in clear or green and is shipped at random; you cannot choose the color of the glass.
• SAFETY AND CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS: Avoid sudden temperature changes and washing in hot water to prevent damage to the glass. Wash the flask only in lukewarm water using safe disinfectants, such as potassium metabisulfite.
• TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS AND DIMENSIONS: The tank has a capacity of exactly 10 L. The set includes a protective, removable plastic basket for easy transport and a protective plastic cap with relatively low airtightness.

A wide-opening glass demijohn. Intended for fermenting wine, beer, and mead, and for infusion liquors. The removable plastic casing enables washing the carboy thoroughly, while at the same time protecting the glass against shattering. The glass of which the carboys are made is sodium glass that features all the approvals for contact with food products. The advantage of glass carboys is their high tightness and possibility of “peeking” at the fermentation process. From the practical point of view, it is recommended to conduct the first fermentation in pulp in a fermentation container, and then - after the first siphoning and draining the fruit - to carry out further fermentation in a glass demijohn. How to use: Glass should not be subjected to sudden temperature shocks, as excessive difference in temperature might lead to its damage. Before use, it is recommended to store the demijohn in room temperature for at least one hour. Do not pour water with temperature above 50°C over the demijohn. It is recommended to wash glass in lukewarm water with addition of disinfecting agents such as potassium metabisulphite. Due to high stresses occurring during turbulent fermentation, it is recommended to close the demijohn during that time with a less tight cotton swab, which prevents presumptive cracking of glass. NOTE: ① Demijohn can contain natural features: air-bubbles, cracks / chips. ② Carboy can vary from batch to batch in colour and design. The photo shows possible colour and shape. ③ Glass of the demijohn may vary (from clear glass to bluish or slightly green). ④ The colours of the balloon caps as well as the colour of the basket are chosen randomly.
