5 liter Italian glass jug with integrated handle, rubber stopper and 6 bubble airlock. Ideal for fermenting and brewing small batches of beer, wine and kombucha, as well as making large yeast starters, testing fruit additions and storing sanitizer solution.
The North Mountain Supply 5 liter (1.32 gallon) Italian glass jug is a versatile small batch fermenter designed for brewers and winemakers who want a compact but capable vessel. With an integrated handle, included rubber stopper and 6 bubble airlock, it arrives ready to put to work in your home brewery or winery.
Sized at 5 liters, this jug is well suited for:
Small batch beer, wine and cider fermentations
Kombucha and similar fermented beverages
Large yeast starters for bigger brews
Fruit flavor experiments before scaling up to full batches
Storing mixed sanitizer solution during brew or bottling days
The clear Italian glass lets you easily monitor fermentation activity, krausen, sediment formation and clarity without opening the vessel. The built in handle makes it easier to move and position the jug when empty or partially filled, which is especially helpful in tight brewing spaces.
The included rubber stopper is drilled to accept the 6 bubble airlock. Once installed, the airlock allows CO2 to escape while helping keep outside air and airborne contaminants from entering during active fermentation. This classic setup is simple, reliable and familiar to most homebrewers and winemakers.
Because of its size and shape, this jug is also excellent for process testing and recipe development. You can:
Trial new fruit or spice additions in a small volume
Run side by side experiments with yeast strains or nutrient schedules
Maintain a ready supply of sanitizer solution in a sturdy glass container
Made in Italy, the jug reflects the quality and clarity associated with Italian glassware and is designed to stand up to repeated use when handled and cleaned properly.
