Thanks, not bad price, plus the shipping is very reasonable!

 

[Rampage4all]

I get most my supplies from them because the flat rate shipping.4 carboys shipped $4.99 can't beat that

 

[Pumpkinman]

WOW! Not at all!

The add says glass. Where do you get plastic from?

 

[cohenhouse77]

I dunno. Good question. It takes me to a link that says PET like better bottle. Strange.

Apparently, I shouldn't post replies while I'm drinking, because it takes me to the glass link on PC. Maybe my phone had an issue. Yeah, that's it. My phone.

lol...I'm sure we've all done it...

I ordered the Glass ones
http://www.austinhomebrew.com/product_info.php?products_id=507

The pic shows them having ridges on the sides like all the other Italian Carboys I already own... I seen a cheap carboy once that was made from thinner glass and it had smooth sides... That is how I've always judged them... But I could be way off... LOL Now that I think about it... that might not even be a pic of the actual product...

You'll need 6.5.

Anthony, I find that the #6.5 and #7 fit the carboys, but the #7 seems a tighter fit to me. My #6.5's sit almost even with the top of the carboy when installed. I use the #6.5's for 1 gallon and 1/2 gallon jugs.
