Product details

The fermenter 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.

Now Includes the Big Mouth Bubbler® carrying harness for lifting, transporting and ensuring your Big Mouth Bubbler lid stays firmly in place during even the most intense fermentations.

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.

5 gallon fermenters are best for the secondary conditioning stage of beer fermentation similar to a traditional 5 gallon carboy. The smaller size eliminates extra airspace in the fermenter reducing the chances of oxidation which can stale the beer prematurely. Also available as a 6.5-gallon primary fermentor.

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. 

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!

Gallon graduation markings help ensure precise measurement of fermenter volume.

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.

5 Gal. Big Mouth Bubbler

I love the wider mouth and lid and especially the harness that makes it easy to lift and move around. Brilliant! Though I used to be big into home brewing years ago, I actually don't use it to brew beer but to create my own chinese medicine liniments. (These are topical medicinals made from chinese herbs soaked in alcohol for up to four years, and are rubbed into achy joints and muscles to relieve pain and stiffness.) I love Northern Brewer's Big Mouth Bubbler so much i have over half a dozen of them. They're the only product I'll use now. The price is reasonable and they always arrive quickly and intact. And their customer service is top notch. These guys are the best! Thanks NB!

We’ll made, description unclear.

Very good product, well packaged. The lid has a hole to put an airlock into. I did not need a valve so did not add it to my order but there is not a stopper included for the hole in the lid. That would have been nice to know. Several stops at hardware stores to find the right size cork. Please add that info to the description.

Perfect for kombucha

I got this fermenter to use for kombucha and it's perfect! I don't use the lid it came with as I use a cloth cover instead, but the wide mouth is perfect for cleaning.

Good fermentor

Haven't racked into this one yet. But it is a similar quality to the 6.5 gallon version. Which my current batch is in. Tiny imperfections in the glass, but this is easily overlooked as they don't cause issues. Only gripe with these is the lid can be a little finicky. The harness helps with that. You just have to make sure to adjust said harness so that it puts enough pressure on the lid. Over all a good product.

I have 14 big mouth bubblers. They are full of fermenting hot sauce, Sauerkraut, carrots, KImche and mostly vinegar. Wish I had something like this years ago when I had 15 gallons of home brew going every week. You can clean these things easily. I put the cardboard boxes in wooden boxes I mad with handles which keeps a constant temp, protects them and easy to handle. The modern air locks are trash for the first weeks of fermenting, so back to a coke bottle and tube till things slow down and then put the modern air locks. I like glass.
