Vagabond Jug

Postby Zollinger » Thu Aug 05, 2010 7:02 pm

Found this old jug tonight at St. Vincent De Paul. We really didn't need another jug, but the price was right and it's unusual. Has a brass nozzle, aluminum cover and inner seal is rubber and aluminum. This sucker is heavy, I think the inside is porcelan. The rubber seal stinks to high heaven like mildew. Going to try soaking it in warm water and baking soda.

I believe those are glass lined. I would fill it up with water & a couple tablespoon of bleach.
