I've been brewing for a few months now and have used both hard plastic and glass carboy for primary fermentation. I have a water cooler that I am periodically replacing the five gallon jugs for and bought a rubber stopper that fits the mouth of these jugs perfectly.
I've yet to try a batch using one of these jugs because I've read different negative reviews of the effects using clear or opaque plastic can have on a brew (these jugs are typically clear-tinted-blue or completely translucent.) Has anybody tried using these for fermentation? What have been your results? Are there certain plastics that work better than others?
