Carboy: <http://www.wineaficionado.com/final/carboy.jpg> Demijohn: <http://people.ambrosiasw.com/~andrew/carboy.jpg> Despite the demijohn pic being named carboy.jpg, that is what we call demijohns around here... usually they are larger and have a faux wicker basket around them. They seem to be favoured by the local Italians and Portuguese fellows. -- charles "Once ... in the wilds of Afghanistan, I lost my corkscrew, and we were forced to live on nothing but food and water for days." - W.C.
