Fermenters & Carboys

The selection of fermenters is entirely a personal choice. Some like to make larger batches, some smaller. Usually a home brewer or winemaker ends up owning several carboys, fermenters etc in order to properly age his brew. Plastic has the advantage of being rugged and light weight. It CAN become scratched, however, and doesn't seem to accumulate as much sediment as glass does. Glass is great for watching the action (it's FUN!) and the surface cleans easily. If you have the budget available, stainless steel is impossible to beat! Best of all (fermentation) worlds. Pick a size that suites YOU.
