/diy/ - Do It Yourself

Don't be overly concerned by the purists. The plastic jug will be fine. If you have the option of a carboy take it, if not, stick to the plastic and make sure all of the surfaces are clean, if you can, use the lock, if not, do not use a balloon, just use a few napkins, or preferable silkscreen of 160 micron or finer and rubber bands to secure. But the majority of the fucked up taste will come from the choice of bakers yeast and using a balloon. Easiest way to bend your beautiful brew over and fuck it in the ass with a broom handle is to cap it with a god damn balloon while it's fermenting.
