Does anyone use plastic Better Bottle Carboys?


That and Buckets is all I use. Hell I've been using the buckets more often than the carboys here recently.

Glass scares the shite out of me.

No drawbacks on the plastic bottles. People will tell you to be careful not to scratch them but I haven't had to stick a brush inside a carboy in a long time. PBW soak does the trick for me.


ETA: Get the 6 gallon ones.

I'm afraid of buckets because of infection. Therefore, the only use for my bucket is for bottling.

I like glass because it's heavy, and i feel like it's meant for that. However, the drawback, is if i ever drop that thing. I'd be in the emergency room getting glass shrapnel removed from my foot. I'm always afraid my brewhauler strap, or handle will fail.
