What is a carboy?

A carboy is the secondary fermentation chamber in the wine making process.

It is usually made out of glass and looks a lot like a large bottle from a water cooler.
You are going to want to attach an air lock to the carboy during the secondary fermentation process because it will keep the bacteria that is present in the air from entering the container and ruining the brew.
