An economical complete kit for making your favourite homemade drinks. The fermentation vessel features a printed capacity scale and useful advice on making homemade wine, beer and distilling washes.
Warning! This is the Ukrainian-language version. We also offer a vessel with information in Polish: 340434 .
- Durable and flexible - the fermentation vessel is made from transparent, food-contact-safe plastic. It does not deform, resists discoloration and is suitable for fermenting beer, wine and other drinks.
- Universal design - the wide lid has an opening for a fermentation airlock. With a simple modification, you can also fit an angled airlock and ferment in several vessels at the same time, stacking them one on top of another.
- Easy transfer - the included drain tap allows you to drain beer or wine completely off the sediment. Its position does not prevent you from placing the vessel on a flat surface.
- Bung and fermentation airlock included - the set includes a universal bung with a plug, allowing you to use a fermentation airlock or seal the vessel tightly when necessary.
- Convenient scale - the printed capacity scale lets you monitor the amount of your batch. Useful advice on making homemade wine, beer and distilling washes will also make it easier to prepare your homemade drinks.
An economical complete kit for making your favourite homemade drinks. The vessel is made from transparent, food-contact-safe plastic that is both highly durable and flexible. The vessels are certified by PZH for contact with food.
The vessels are resistant to discoloration caused by contact with tannins from fruit.
The included lid with an opening and universal bung with a plug allow you either to seal the vessel or fit a fermentation airlock. Drilling an additional hole yourself also allows you to fit an angled airlock and ferment in several vessels stacked on top of one another at the same time.
The rotating tap included in the set makes it easy to drain beer, wine and other batches off the sediment.
The MAXI plastic fermentation airlock, filled with water, is used during fermentation to protect the contents of the batch from oxygen while allowing the carbon dioxide produced during the process to escape regularly. The moving column of water lets you observe changes in fermentation intensity, from the vigorous stage with intense bubbling to the steady stage. Water naturally evaporates, so remember to top up the airlock when necessary. The airlock also protects the batch from fruit flies entering it, as they can introduce acetic acid bacteria that convert ethanol into acetic acid.
The vessel and lid are made from polypropylene. The product is BPA-free.
Use:
To make the vessel easier to open, lift the lid slightly by gently pulling the handle, insert, for example, the handle of a spoon into the gap, and then run it around the rim of the vessel.
Do not clean the vessels with abrasive scrubbers, as this could scratch their surfaces and create places where contamination could develop.
When fitting the tap to the vessel, place the gasket on the outside of the vessel. This ensures a complete seal.
WARNING: You can seal these vessels further by coating the rim with petroleum jelly or edible oil. Before preparing a batch, thoroughly sanitize the fermentation vessel using metabisulfite or Oxi Turbo.
Maximum permitted temperature of the contents: 85°C.
The temperature of the vessels before filling should be at least 5°C.
Maximum alcohol concentration in the contents: 50%.

Storage with UV protection
To prevent damage caused by UV radiation, empty or filled vessels must not be stored outdoors. If this is not possible due to storage conditions, store the vessels and lids in a way that protects them from UV radiation. For example, pallets containing vessels and lids can be additionally covered with a plastic tarpaulin resistant to UV radiation.
Storage of empty vessels
As the vessels and lids are sensitive to atmospheric conditions, store them in a dry place at a constant temperature. This not only protects them from moisture but also effectively prevents condensation, which can damage packaging, particularly packaging decorated with offset printing, IML or digital printing. In addition, despite the use of an antistatic agent, contamination with dust or dirt cannot be ruled out, so the vessels and lids must be stored in a clean room.
