The containers feature a printed capacity scale along with useful tips for making homemade wine, beer and distilling washes.
Note! German-language version - We also offer a container with information in English - 340434.
- Durable and flexible - the fermentation container is made from white, food-contact-safe plastic. It will not warp, is resistant to discolouration and is suitable for fermenting beer, wine and other beverages.
- Versatile design - the container's wide lid has an opening for a fermentation airlock. You can also modify the container yourself to fit an angled airlock and ferment in several containers at the same time by stacking them one on top of another.
- Easy to drain - the included drain tap allows you to rack beer or wine completely off the sediment. The tap is positioned so it does not prevent the container from being placed on a flat surface.
- Bung included - the set includes a universal bung with a plug, allowing you to use a fermentation airlock or seal the container tightly when necessary.
- Convenient scale - the printed capacity scale lets you monitor the amount of your batch. Useful tips on making homemade wine, beer and distilling washes make it easier to prepare your own specialities.
This economical, complete set is ideal for making your favourite homemade beverages. The container is made from highly durable and flexible white plastic intended for contact with food. The containers have PZH approval for contact with food products.
The containers are resistant to discolouration caused by tannins from fruit.
The lid with an opening and the universal bung with a plug included in the set allow you either to seal the container or fit a fermentation airlock. Drilling an additional hole yourself allows you to install an angled airlock and ferment in several containers stacked on top of one another at the same time.
The container and lid are made from polypropylene and are BPA-free.
Use:
To make the container easier to open, lift the lid slightly by gently pulling on the handle, insert something such as the handle of a spoon into the gap, then slide it around the rim of the container.
Do not clean the containers with abrasive scourers, as these may scratch the surface and create places where contamination can develop.
When fitting the tap to the container, place the seal on the outside of the container. This ensures a watertight seal.
NOTE: You can make these containers even more airtight by coating the rim with petroleum jelly or edible oil. Before preparing a batch, thoroughly sanitise the fermentation container using potassium metabisulfite or Oxi Turbo.

Storage with UV protection
To prevent damage caused by UV radiation, empty or filled containers must not be stored outdoors. If this is not possible because of storage conditions, the containers and lids must be stored in a way that protects them from UV radiation. For example, pallets of containers and lids can be covered with a plastic tarpaulin resistant to UV radiation.
Storage of empty containers
As the containers and lids are sensitive to weather 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 containers must be stored in a clean room.
