FastRack 5 Gallon Glass Carboy: Efficient Solution for Easy Brewing and Fermentation Review

This is cheap glass. The bottle broke after the first use. Luckily I had just poured my beer and was about to put the bottle in the sink when I heard a loud noise and realized the neck of the bottle was broken. The bottle was empty when I moved it. I didn't hit anything or hit him. Or just cracked.

Can't rate it low enough. I drank 5 gallons of wine and while cleaning I heard a loud noise and didn't know what it was. A few minutes later I was about to pick up the bottle from the floor where I had been pumping to put it on the counter and it broke. 5 gallons of wine spilled on the floor and cut my leg. cheap glass. Avoid this product!

I was very concerned about which large glass bottle to buy as all the weak bottle reviews all break on arrival or shortly thereafter. (In fact, a bottle from another manufacturer arrived broken and was ordered instead.) This 5 gallon bottle feels solid, the glass is thick and feels very, very strong. From what I see I would highly recommend them, if you can find them they seem to be a great product at a decent price and very high quality.

It's hard not to be nervous when ordering glassware online. As soon as he arrived, it was clear that my concerns were unjustified. Well packaged and thick solid item. Chips, cracks, etc. No. The specified size of the stopper is correct. Recommend a good long brush to clean bottle or carafe when using it for home brewing. The bottle holder also came in handy when full. It has withstood the daily knocks that come with home brewing. Rest assured, I'll live with this for many years until I manage…

I will soon learn to pay more attention to bad reviews or not to order from Revain at all. I have bought many glass bottles over the years but lately since ordering them online the quality of the product has become extremely questionable. I have often noticed small imperfections in the glass, but these have always been dismissed as insignificant. A crack appeared in one of my bottles a few weeks ago, and now I'm starting to check for these "little" imperfections. I'm beginning to suspect that…

I keep water for those emergencies that in today's world cannot be well prepared for. I could use one for wine, my brother made wine by putting a balloon on the hole, he used sugar and yeast, unfortunately he used regular grape juice. I'm sure this is a bad recipe, but you can see how easy it can be. It's glass, you can't bang hard objects like cement and then complain about it. This is also glass, please address accordingly. I was nervous handling such a heavy container when filling it with…

Now I have two of these. The product is fantastic. In my quest to reduce my exposure to plastic and improve my health, I started buying water from my local water treatment store. I have a shard of ceramic water cooler and I put one on top of it. Works great. Looks great. Very nice to use. Made in Italy according to packaging. To close it properly, I bought plastic "milk jug" style lids from my water store, which fit 5 gallon plastic jugs, but work fine for that too. Not entirely plastic-free…
