hi--wondering if FOOD GRADE BPA free?? also--please describe what looks like hole on top?

All of our pails are food grade but I don't know for sure about BPA Free. The hole on the top is a 1/2" hole with a grommet inserted in it.

Is this fermenter effective with a 6 gallon carboy? I'm worried about overfilling or not enough space near the top.

This is too small for use as a primary fermenter for 6 gallons. You need a 7.9 gallon pail for use as a primary fermenter for 6 gallons of wort/must.

This question is for the seller. why dont you use a rubber gasket on your lid. the lid definetely did not make an air tight seal?

Not seller, but I have purchased 2 of them. I have had a pretty air tight seal...well...airtight enough to make some damn good beer.

Good bucket

The lid seems like it might be very hard to close. But my husband said he will be able to close it. Other than that it's a good bucket for homemade wine.
