A carboy, also known as a demijohn or a lady jeanne, is a rigid container with a typical capacity of 4 to 60 litres (1 to 16 US gal).[1][2] Carboys are primarily used for transporting liquids, often drinking water or chemicals.[3]

They are also used for in-home fermentation of beverages, often beer or wine.
