Free Carboy!

[HAREEBROWNBEEST]

Free Carboy from a co-worker of mine that I've given home brew too. Its a 6.5 gallon glass carboy that was still in box, never ben used. He tends to like the "green" rather than the brown cant wait to put it to use.

That looks like an acid carboy. Extremely nice gift.

It is an acid carboy, what does that mean?

It means it is better quality glass than carboys sold now-a-days for fermenting beer or wine. My first one, back in 87, is 7.5 gallons. It is several pounds heavier than the newer 6.5 carboys.

Wow, cool man, i have a few 5 gallon "better bottle" carboys that tend to overflow when i do a heavy hop batch. This should help me out on the overflow issue.

Luck you, Haree!
My bro-in law gave me two 5 gal acid carboys which I use exclusively for secondary fermentation vessels on those occasions when a big brew requires it.

Congrats on the carboy, the price was perfect...
