Gallon Apple juice bottles.

[ShelleyDickison]

Can I reuse the plastic gallon jugs the apple juice comes in as a gallon carboy?

 

[Duster]

Will it work, yes, however I would not recommend it. Alcohol does something to some plastics causing an off or unnatural flavor in the finished wine.

I agree with Duster, I won't use it

Decided not to use the apple juice jugs for wine. Still didn't want to just throw them away. Just filled with water and froze and will use them in the cooler for when we go fishing on the boat. Doing my part for the planet

I have three children so juciy juice bottles are always around, I use them for our bonfire parties. plastic is good for short term storage of maybe 15 days.
