Details
The fermentor that started it all, reinvented again! We’ve taken the revolutionary Big Mouth Bubbler® glass and re-engineered it with the help of world-class Polish master glassmakers to ensure sturdy, solid, superior craftsmanship.
Extra-thick glass eliminates oxygen permeation and keeps your brew safe. Banish bugs and bacteria with perfectly air-tight seals from a carefully ground, completely smooth and obsessively flat neck top.
In the evolution of Big Mouth Bubbler®, we’ve added some perks! Instantly measure volume with gallon graduation marks. Easier transfer of clear beer with a taller, narrower body while ensuring less liquid is left behind.
Say goodbye to that awkward brush and give your fermentor the deep-clean your beer deserves. Scrub off any unseen biofilm. Effortlessly wipe away crusted krausen in just a couple of carefree minutes.
Bid your funnel and siphon sayonara! Pour cooled wort directly from your kettle into the Big Mouth Bubbler® for instant transfers. Pitch yeast without it running down the sides of your fermentor. Easily add flavorings to secondary, and then just as easily remove them!
Last but not least, you asked and we listened—more space for the adhesive FermagraF° LCD thermometer than any other glass fermentor! The most obsessively engineered glass fermentor ever created—we are proud and excited to introduce the new and improved Big Mouth Bubbler® EVO 2.
Caution: Big Mouth Bubbler® is a large hand-formed glass item that can be easily damaged if not used with proper care and handling. It may have variations in shape and thickness, and will show the normal bubbling characteristics of hand-formed glass. Extreme changes in temperature or sudden contact with hard surfaces may cause glass to crack. Handle with care–we strongly recommend using the Big Mouth Bubbler® carrying harness for increased safety and ease of handling.
Note: We still strongly recommend the Big Mouth Bubbler® carrying harness.
Each Big Mouth Bubbler® EVO 2 includes:
- Big Mouth Bubbler® Glass Fermentor & Threaded Lid*
- Big Mouth Bubbler® Microfiber Cleaning Cloth

Poor Design - Lid Doesn't Stay on, Don't BuyThe main problem is that the lid doesn’t stay on during fermentation, thus making it useless as sold. I am shocked that this product made it to the shelves to start with and there should be a solution to the issue if they continue to sell after so much negative customer feedback. Customers should not have to modify products themselves to make them work as intended, especially at such a high price point. I do not recommend buying this product. A fermenting bucket is cheaper, easier to carry (handle), lighter, more durable, easier to clean, blocks light, and the lid stays on.- Was this review helpful? Yes (1) No (0)

AwesomeI needed to start making wine and I knew it would stain the plastic so when Midwest went with the Buy 1 get the second half off I jumped. I use them for wine and for my primary fermenter for my beer. They clean up quick and I love being able to scrub the bottom of the container without using a long brush.- Was this review helpful?

I wish the lid was easier to line up when screwing on. It has a tendency to want to cross-thread. It makes the first fermentation process much easier!- Was this review helpful? Yes (0) No (0)

BMB EVO 2The fermenter itself is great. The screw on lid is flimsy and the gasket on mine didnt seal off the container. Afyer pitching my Krausen was like a volcano and no bubbles came from the air lock as it was seeping out of the lid. Swapped lids with the threadless EVO2 I have. Apparently the threadless ones are a little bit narrower. Had to modify the silicon seal to get it to work. BMB needs to figure the lid situation out.- Was this review helpful? Yes (1) No (0)

Go with Glass!Easier to clean than plastic and does not leave tiny scratches for microbes to grow! This is pretty heavy, especially when full so be sure to put it in a tote during fermentation because you wont be able to move it after its full. I suggest buying a carboy strap for this big boy!- Was this review helpful? Yes (0) No (0)

Wonderful!I got one of these last year and it has been great. I still have my old glass carboy, but this thing has taken over its duties. When I read the reviews, everybody was bitching about the lid and how it wouldn't stay in place. I got mine and discovered it had the screw-on lid, even though that kind had supposedly been discontinued. I had to order the smaller drilled stopper for the air lock, but it has been a champ. Sure is easier to clean than ramming a brush down the old carboy.- Was this review helpful? Yes (0) No (0)

White wine fermentationI used the Big Mouth for primary fermentation of white wine. It has adequate volume to do a 23 liter primary, but if you have skins to add for a red wine this will not be big enough. I like the idea of using glass for fermentation instead of the plastic buckets. The lid that came with it was a screw on lid. Even though I tried several times the screw on lid would not provide a tight seal. I'm currently looking for some type gasket to use. But with a primary wine fermentation you don't actually need a tight seal until near the end of primary fermentation. I like the product and would like it more if I could get the lid to seal.- Was this review helpful? Yes (0) No (0)

Start typing your question and we'll check if it was already asked and answered. Learn MoreBrowse 8 questions Browse 8 questions and 15 answersWill a 6.5gal work for 5gal brews or will I absolutely need a 5gal for the secondary fermentation? I'm trying to save as much space as possible. Is there a way to use the 6.5gal for the primary and secondary fermentation?BEST ANSWER: You can use a larger size vessel to ferment in primary or secondary but you will need two separate vessels one for primary and one for secondary. The big mouth fermenters have to be taped on the top during primary around the rim the cap seems to pop off due to pressure from CO2 but they are much easier to clean I also recommend getting the plastic drying stand for the fermenter it works for either big mouth fermenters as well.

Can I use this for a primary fermentor for a 6 gallon wine kit??BEST ANSWER: A 6 gal batch may be tight. Not much room for yeast cap. It will work if your yeast doesn't overflow it. I assume the wine is a juice kit and not fresh fruit? 1/2 gal of spare room just seems too little for primary fermentation. I have had 5 hal of beer blow the top off with yeast/foam at the top. You usually want 25% - 30% headroom for a primary fermenter just to keep the messes down.- Reply

can the manufact. drill and install a spigot?BEST ANSWER: The Evo 2 for a short time sold a spigot version. I have a 5 gallon Evo 2 Glass carboy with a spigot. Then a bunch of less then perfect spigot Evo 2 were discounted thru Northern Brewer. Now NB no longer sales spigot glass carboys. Just plastic big mouth bubblers. Drilling glass must be difficult or they would still be offered. So the short answer would be New.- Reply

Is there a stopper for the big mouth bubbler that allows the use of a thermowell along with the airlock?BEST ANSWER: Most thermowell's come with a standard size (dia.)stopper, with 2 holes. 1 for the air lock and 1 for the thermowell. The TW I bought from another vendor was this way. That being said, the holes for a TW stopper are smaller then a standard 2 hole stopper you get from your local brew supply store. hope this helps.- Reply

I'm confused... this description says 6.5 gallon glass w/ threaded lid, but a lot of the reviews talk about the universal plug-style lid popping out. Does this come with the gray threaded screw-on lid, or does it come with the blue universal lid? I only want it if it has screw-on lid...BEST ANSWER: This product is currently being sold with the screw-on lid. Cheers!- Reply

Can you use the 6.5gal for primary and secondary fermentation or do I absolutely have to get a second 5 gal carboy for the secondary fermentation? I'm tight on space so I'd rather find a way to make one work if it's possible.
