Wine Carboy 10 L in Plastic Basket, Lumarko 644010

The Lumarko 10 L wine carboy in a protective plastic basket is a glass fermentation and storage container designed for home winemaking and beverage handling. With a 10‑liter capacity it accommodates small batches of wine, juice or other fermented drinks. The carboy is supplied in a sturdy plastic basket that protects the glass during transport and provides an integrated handle for safer lifting and carrying. The neck accepts standard fittings such as airlocks and taps, allowing straightforward connection for fermentation control and convenient decanting.

Advantages

The combination of a clear glass carboy and a durable plastic basket offers protection without hiding the contents, so you can visually monitor fermentation and sedimentation. The basket reduces the risk of breakage and makes handling easier compared with a bare glass vessel. The 10‑litre size is compact enough for domestic use while large enough for multiple bottles of finished beverage. Compatibility with common airlocks and taps simplifies setup for primary and secondary fermentation.

Suitable for

• Home winemaking and small‑batch fermentation
• Storing and transporting wine, juice or other non‑carbonated beverages
• Secondary fermentation and bulk conditioning before bottling
• Visual monitoring of fermentation and sedimentation

Key specifications

• Capacity: 10 litres
• Material (container): clear glass
• Protective casing: durable plastic basket with integrated handle
• Neck design: compatible with standard airlocks and taps
• Intended use: fermentation, storage and transport of beverages

How to use

Sanitise the carboy and any fittings before use to prevent contamination. Place the glass carboy inside the plastic basket and ensure it is seated securely. Pour the must or liquid into the carboy up to the recommended fill level, leaving headspace for fermentation activity. Fit an appropriate airlock or sealing device to the neck for primary or secondary fermentation. After fermentation is complete, attach a tap or use siphoning to transfer the beverage for bottling or further conditioning. Clean and dry the carboy and basket after each use.

Usage recommendations

Handle the carboy by the basket’s integrated handle rather than the glass neck. Avoid sudden temperature changes to prevent thermal stress to the glass, and always sanitise equipment before contact with fermenting liquids.
