## Description

6.5 Bucket with lid and grommet

Review: Exactly what I was looking for - First time wine maker here. Was looking for a good primary fermenter for a 3 gallon batch of wild grape wine. Ended up landing on this one. Very happy with my purchase. The 6.5 gallon capacity is the perfect size and it means I can scale up to a 5 gallon batch next year if I want. The container itself seems very good quality, and the lid and included air lock grommet seal very well and my first batch is currently bubbling away. I like that it has a carry handle so I can prep the grape juice in the kitchen then carry it to the basement to fermenter. Although I dont plan on using the charts and note taking areas on the side it is a really nice included feature
Review: Fantastic for wine making! - Used it to make plum wine. The lid seals TIGHT and can be a little tough to open, but that’s what you want to keep all the precious alcohol inside! Made about 4/12 gallons of wine with 8lbs of fruit in a brew bag inside of the bucket. Bucket is very sturdy and was able to be picked up and put ontop/ off of the fridge with no issues.

## Features

- WHAT'S INCLUDED: With this purchase, you'll receive a 6.5 gallon beer fermenter made from food grade HDPE. This fermentation bucket is 100% BPA free, safe for beer fermentation. Comes complete with drilled lid grommet for an airlock. Very popular with brewers to be used as a bottling bucket as well. FastRack fermenting buckets are very easy to clean and sanitize.
- DURABLE FOOD-GRADE PLASTIC: This sturdy fermenting bucket is the same reliable option included in many of our kits. Made from food-grade plastic, it’s a cost-effective solution for brewing beer, wine, mead, cider, or other fermented beverages.

If you are bottling and not kegging you need this

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Peel the quality seal thing off from below tabs
*by Z***H on October 12, 2025*

I saw someone say the lid is single use. It's not, there is a ring of plastic you peel off just under the tabs you pull to open like on a normal lid that doesn't have that. Works as advertised. Before you brew, clean with soap. It has a plastic smell. I cleaned with soap, rinsed and cleaned with alcohol and rinsed again. Smelled nothing but the tap water I used to clean it
