A demijohn is a container for storing and transporting liquids, typically wine or beer, with a narrow neck and a wide body.
The demijohn may have a handle or not and often comes with a lid that can be secured with a rubber stopper.
Plastic demijohns are popular among homebrewers and winemakers because they are lightweight, shatterproof, and less expensive than glass demijohns.
They are also easy to clean and sanitise, making them a practical choice for storing and fermenting liquids.
However, it's worth noting that these demijohns may not be suitable for long-term storage of some types of liquids, as the plastic can be permeable to oxygen and may affect the flavour of the contents. It's always best to check the compatibility of the plastic with the liquid you intend to store before using these demijohns.
Home brewing using these demijohns is possible, but there are a few considerations to keep in mind to ensure a successful brew:
