5L Glass Demijohn (Mandfles) with Handle - Cork Neck Fermentation Bottle, Glass Only

Price: €7,90
Pairs well with

The classic 5-litre glass demijohn (mandfles) with a moulded carry handle and traditional cork neck: the small-batch fermenter that mead, cider and country wine have been made in for a century. Glass means no scratches, no odour carryover, no oxygen creep — and you watch every bubble happen.

Five litres is the perfect experiment size: split a batch to try two yeasts, ferment the honey your neighbour gave you, or test that rhubarb wine idea without committing a 30-litre bucket — and the handle makes a full jug a one-hand carry. Glass only — add a bung and airlock, or take the Fermentation Kit version with both included.

Key features

  • 5 L clear glass — watch the ferment, sanitise with anything
  • Moulded glass carry handle — a full jug moves safely
  • Traditional cork-neck demijohn shape
  • No scratches or odour carryover, unlike plastic
  • Glass only — bung & airlock separate, or in the Kit version

Usage

  • Fill to the shoulder, never the neck — ferments need headspace
  • Fit the drilled silicone bung 26/32 mm + a 2-piece airlock and fermentation is sealed
  • A bottle brush and warm PBW water keep it spotless for years
