I'm a "one hand on the bottom and one hand on the neck" kind of guy. Works for all sorts of situations.
Heh heh......Looks like we think the same way.

That's nice. Anecdotes are not data.
People drive motorcycles, even though there's a good chance that you'll be dead if you get into an accident. I suppose next we'll start talking about how everyone should drive cars.
Pet bottles contain benzene which is a cancer causing chemical....pet bottles are porous and trap tastes and smells...pop in pet bottles have a shelf life of 90 days and glass is up to a year....think about benzene when you are drinking bottled water or pop....or watch the movie Water Wars on Netflix.
Wow that is nuts. Glad you didn't get hurt.
People with carboys should go get one of those baby holders. The ones you strap your baby to your back like a backpack lol Those should be perfect. If one of those breaks with a carboy in it, I hope someone notifies the company because a lot of parents are going to be pissed lol
NOT downing glass, I just love my stainless steel cornies for fermenting. Built on handles have eliminated my back trouble, and you could probably throw one off of a 2 story house without breaking.
Do you use some sort of blow off when fermenting in the cornies? Seems like a good compromise between breakable glass and scratchable plastic
It is beyond compromise. It is ideal. Now you won't get a full 5 gallons and krausen, much less 6.5 gallons in it, so maybe that is the tradeoff.
All, I have a response from the manufacturer:
Dear Chris,
I am indeed concerned. The failure of our product is very rare and I don't want to loose ANY confidence, for Any reason.
I will compensate you for your costs and send a new Brew Hauler for you to try again
Please send your address.

I must say that I was not expecting that! It is also nice to hear that what happened to me is not an everyday occurrence. I must say that a company standing behind the product is a rarity now days, and hopefully my new Brew Hauler will not fail as I am lifting the carboy into the milk crate.
I"m wondering how i can reinforce my hauler. I'm afraid additional stitching would make it weaker.
Thanks for sharing! It is nice to come across a gem like this as I'm browsing the forum this morning. Any tricks for making this?
Anyone start a thread on making a carboy unbreakable?

30 cans of Great Stuff? Or a memory foam wrap?
I've only been in this hobby/addiction since June, but the community of people that I have dealt with both personally, and on this forum have been awesome and eager to help in any way possible. I have also noticed it has rubbed off on me too...as I recently gave 48+ bottles that I had just peeled to a guy short on funds
