My aunt owns a small antique business. I went up to see her earlier in the week and she told me that she believes she has a five gallon glass carboy in her storage building. A few years back, she bought a bunch of stuff from the estate of an an old man who died and his kids where just selling his stuff. She got it in a package deal which included a lot of nice antiques, (I think they threw it in just to get rid of it) Anyway she told me that she will try to look for it this weekend and if she finds it, I can have it. I know in my last topic, someone said that a secondary fermenter needed to be glass. However, every bit of documentation I have read says to either get food grade plastic to be your primary fermenter or stainless steal. Could I use this glass Carboy as a primary fermenter? What is the difference, why should your secondary fermenter be glass and what differences can I expect if I use the glass as my primary?
Thanks,
