CellarScience® Universal Breathable Bung | Glass Carboys

• Dual Functionality: Acts as both a stopper and an airlock, allowing CO2 to escape while preventing oxygen and contaminants from entering, ensuring optimal fermentation conditions.
• Versatile Fit: Compatible with a wide range of containers, including 3, 5, 6, and 6.5-gallon carboys, 1-gallon bottles, growlers, and 500 mL flasks, replacing multiple stopper sizes.
• Ideal for Wine and Beer Ferments: Breathable stoppers are a popular choice in commercial wineries and perfect for beer fermentation, it creates a vacuum if the wort cools, preventing contamination from water airlocks.

A breathable Silicone stopper that acts as both a stopper and an airlock. Unique design allows CO2 pressure to escape but keeps Oxygen and airborne contamination out. This quickly became our stopper of choice for wine, and is a popular style used by numerous commercial wineries. Also has great application for beer ferments: It will create a vacuum if fermenting wort cools (as opposed to pulling water in from your traditional airlock.) Airtight seal is great for extended fermented lager when CO2 production is still present but very slight.
