How to use

Sanitise the demijohn and any fittings before filling to reduce contamination risk. Pour wort, must or liquid to be fermented into the vessel, leaving appropriate headspace to allow CO₂ expansion and foam during active fermentation. Fit a compatible airlock into the port and secure a suitable stopper if required. Place the demijohn on a stable, level surface away from direct sunlight and maintain recommended fermentation temperatures for your recipe. After primary fermentation is complete, rack or siphon the liquid to another container or bottle as needed.

Usage recommendations

To prolong the life and clarity of the glass vessel, avoid sudden temperature shocks and handle the demijohn by the integrated handle when moving it while filled. Clean gently with non-abrasive cleaners and rinse thoroughly. Use compatible food-grade stoppers and airlocks sized for the demijohn neck to ensure a secure seal and controlled fermentation.
