search for "carboy" on the web, they are used for homebrewing beer. they don't cost a lot of money.

I've got a couple that I use for brewing. I've no idea where you'll find any free ones. good luck

Thanks code-dog.
Yeah, I have looked for carboys but they are a little pricey at my income level. I am brewing too, right now wine but hope to try my first beer soon

Glass is nice...but def not required. The 5 gallon water containers you get your drinking water are more than sufficient and you don't have to worry about breakage. I spent over a year going to garage sales and antique shops, carboys don't exist outside of the internet and homebrew shops anymore.

I have been garage saleing too. No luck with the bottles but many other treasures. I don't trust the plastics for long term secondary (tertiary) Fermenting. I get my water from plastics though so...

Try all the antiquing places on 71 between Brenham and La Grange. If you can't find them their, they don't exist.
