25 Litre Fermentation Vessel/Bucket/Bin + airlock

This is a very secure fermenting bin either with its own airlock.

Lids hard to get off, mind you the last one I had was a softer plastic lid, easier to get off, but didn't last. So yeh good quality, but a bugger to get the lid off.

Excellent

I bought this in 2022, up till now had only used it for making elderberry wine with last year's crop and the bucket was only half full. I have just used it with a wine kit that required 22.7 litres in total including the concentrate (plus 4 kilos of sugar), and the bucket is full right to the brim. Not ideal if you're following a recipe. I will need to try another brand and hope it's bigger. Otherwise the bucket is ok, though I have made my own measure markings on the outside with permanent marker.

What else can you say about a plastic bucket? Lid fits closely (as it should), seems nicely made, the vendors did a good job and clearly have a talent for imaginative names. Delivery was quick and reasonably priced.

Used this to make Elderflower champagne

no level markings on the outside of the bucket, will not buy this product again

It says to use petroleum jelly round the seals and rim, so I put some Vaseline (other brands are available) round the bung and the airlock and it fitted in very easily. (Now who would have guessed that?) I also used some round the rim and that may have made it a bit easier to get the lid to fit. It does take a bit of effort to click it on all the way round but the seal is spot on, unlike many other bins. The down side is that there are no level markers and you can only just see the wine level through the plastic. That's not an issue if you measure what's going in of course or if you're transferring from another bin. I liked them enough to buy another two.
