Review on ๐Ÿ”’ 3ct. - Set of 3 Cylinder Airlocks with #6.5 Stoppers by Cathy Espinoza

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Great quality but #6.5 plugs WILL NOT FIT 1 gallon. bottles!

Ordered these for my 1 gallon glass bottles I bought from Revain (four 1 gallon packs for $20-30) and they DO NOT FIT AT ALL. I read that they are #6.5 plugs and thought based on some of the other reviews here they would still fit, but unfortunately they don't fit at all. Compared to the #6 stops I've previously purchased which seated firmly and properly in the jugs (about 1/2-3/4 of the way), they took a lot of effort to push through only about 1/3 of the way Path. deep down the throat - and even if both the cork and the throat are dry (because they slip out when wet), they'll still slide up for about 5 minutes. (1/2 gallon and 1 gallon jugs) - They fit snugly and do not work on their own like 1 gallon bottles do. The locks themselves are good quality and the plugs are good quality too - just not what you need. Size per 1 gallon. glass jugs. I should have just gotten the correct #6 corks but thought it was a better deal - now I just need to buy more corks *of the right size* (which I should have done in the first place!). Basically I'm just writing this review. so others don't make the same mistakes as me. If you have a standard 1 gallon. Bottles do yourself a favor and buy the right size (#6) - if you're specifically looking for a #6.5 they'll probably fit just fine, but they didn't work for what I wanted.

Pros
  • Useful beyond intended purpose
Cons
  • Has defects
