I have never had success with that vacuum pulling but I would not
worry about the carboy imploding. It's only 15 pounds of additional
external pressure. There is a you tube post where they added boiling
stones and it became much more effective. Anything with a little
roughness would work if you want to try that. I pulled 25 inches of
mercury on mine but didn't add anything as a nucleation site, that
was probably the problem with my 'experiment'...
