the oxygen permeability of better bottles has been documented to be very, very low, too low to really matter here is a link to the better bottle site that also has links at the bottom to studies done on this issue.

So I am going all plastic now (almost) I am keeping one glass 5 gallon carboy for bulk ageing . I have a barleywine in there that needs 1.5 more months. I also have bought/build a refrigerator ferm chamber that will be in my shed out back so no more glass inside.

So I am so glad that I spent the little bit of money on an over 6 gallon container. Glass carboy shattered and the pic explains it all. Reracked in a bucket and hoping for the best.

Here is the saved beer. Still green but tastes great!

Don't know about the pic explaining it all. It's to small for me to make out anyting but a carboy half full of something.

That would be safe.

Damn straight....130psi before they blow.

Try that with your glass carboy, bucket, or better bottle.

Now all I need is some kegs I can buy for the right price.
