looking to buy several more 6.5 gallon soon
 
I own 3 but since I've got my kegerator I've only been using one at a time. If I brew something I need to age then the others will get used. Also if I plan any sort of party that might drain me ill be sure to brew a supply line so I can be back up and drinking after they are emptied.
 
How many? I have no idea. Maybe 20 or 30?

I know I only have three BBs, though. The rest are glass. I use them for wine, so many of them are 5 or 6 gallon carboys with a few 3 gallons in there.

I tend to use ale pails for my beers and for primary for wine.
 
Four glass carboys
1 x 6.5 gallon
2 x 5 gallon
1 x 5 gallon old blueish glass. I never use it because it looks like the interior bottom is really scratched.
 
All glass:

6 glass demijohns (15g)
5 glass carboy (6g)
2 glass carboy (6.5g)
1 glass carboy (5g)
2 glass carboy (3g)

Lots of corney kegs, homer buckets or gallon buckets I can use in a pinch
 
I am just starting out and have only two fermenters.
1 5 gal glass
1 6.5 gal glass

I was going to pick up 1-2 more glass 5gal ones then decided to pickup two extra cornys instead... Oh well. :)
