The 5 gallon or 19L carboy is the ideal size for secondary. Most fermentations end up being 5 gallons and these carboys are a great size for post fermentation storage.
Carboys are one of the most essential items for homebrewers.
They come in a variety of sizes and types of material.
Carboys can be used to ferment in, but we find them more useful for storage of post fermentation liquids. Fermentation can be messy, and cleaning the carboy post fermentation can be a bit of a chore. For doing "secondary" there is nothing better though than a glass carboy.
The #6.5 bung is the right size for the neck of the carboy.
