With the recent bulk grain buy over I've been looking for a way to store all the grain. I came across a crowd in Sandyford called Allpack who sell tamper evident plastic buckets in various sizes up to 20 Litres. They're pretty cheap and the buckets are liquid and air tight. Here's a link:
http://www.alpack.ie/Tamper_Evident_Plastic_Buckets/Default.336.html
I'm not sure if there is scope for any savings on a bulk deal with these guys, but if there is, would anyone be interested?
I'd take one or two 20l.
I have used these buckets. Theyre handy alright.
I asked about bigger buckets and he said he can get 30l buckets but we would want to be buying alot of them for him to consider getting them in.
I cant remember the price he said they would likely end up costing, but it was coming in at a lot less than the price of the fermenters you see in hb shops. (think he was saying 7 or 8 euros)
I'd be interested in the 30L ones. I'd go for two 20L too.
Ok, well maybe we should start a list and see where it goes.
1. Dr Jacoby: 30L x 2 / 20L x 2 / 10L x 2 / 5L x 2 / 2.5L x 4 / 1L x 4

2. Mike: 30L x 2 / 20L x 2
3. rossa : 20 x 2
4. 3 x 30L (ill downgrade to 3 x 20 if we cant get 30L)
These buckets are good. I bought 10 20L ones 2 years ago to experiment with,trying to push,press,melt,stretch,boil and everything else to see if I could form them into conical fermenters. :-[. It did not work :'(, but I did conclude that they are strong.
I'm interested in 2 x 20L but will need NHC Express to get them to Cork.
Am I right thinking the all-in for 20L is <EUR5 plus a homebrew for delivery?
If this gets off the ground before the end of October I'll be heading down to Kerry and could meet you somehwere if that suits. I'll probably be heading down on the 1st of November or thereabouts

Hi James, do you reckon 20 x 30L buckets would be enough to entice them to order them in? We're nearly there and it would be great to get this off the ground.

Try these guys for bigger buckets. I got some 25l ones with lids from them before.
http://www.thepackagingcentre.ie/
Just checked......
http://www.thepackagingcentre.ie/products2.php?productid=36
There seem to be 30l ones allright.
Just had a quick look. I wonder are they air tight? I'll give them a buzz in a while and get some more info.
The Alppack website says they are liquid and air tight.
I note the picture has a 1 litre Homemade Jam, Jam needs to be airtight.
I assume the same with the Packaging Centre.
They have the tight fitting snap down lids
It turns out that Alpack can't source 30L buckets, so I contacted The Packaging Centre and they sent the following response:
"Hi Peter,
I will do my best to give you the best price possible on the pale's mentioned below.
The main difference on the Tamper Bucket to the non-tamper bucket is just a small piece of plastic that has to be broke after you seal the pales in order to open the lids, Please see attached picture. Once this is broken the lids acts like any normal lid as per non tamper evident buckets.
Yes the buckets will stack inside once the lids are removed,
Here are the cost on the buckets.
30 litre Tamper Evident buckets € 8.00 + vat each
20 litre tamper evident buckets € 3.70 + vat each
5 litre Buckets Tamper evident € 2.20 + vat each
2.5 litre Pails tamper evident € 1.55 + vat each
Please let me know if you would like me to put a quote togeather for any amount required,
Thanks for the enquiry,
Best regards
Glenn Hudson
The Packaging Centre

If anyone else would like to get a few buckets based on the above prices could you post here asap. I'd like to send on a full list for a quote in the next day or so. Cheers
Why 30l are over twice a price of 20l ?
I emailed him about that but he hasn't replied yet. It's still quite cheap I think but let's see what he says.
At a guess,its production and sale size. When buying concrete blocks you can buy 1/2 size ones as well,but they are twice the price because of smaller production quantity's.
Here's the response:
"The 30 litre pails are a more robust pails much sturdier and have more metal in the handle,
Also they do not come from the same manufacturer as the other pails do. This is also a factor of why the cost is higher,
We bring them in on their own as with the others we group 5's 10's 15's 20's etc. all in one load so cost is reduced.
Best regards
Glenn"
OK, I'm still in for 4x30l
I'd still be keen on 3 x 30L, as it's still a good price. I presume that these are not the non tamper, as we don't really need them do we. That's more when chemicals and stuff are being sent, so they know it's the original contents.
Yea, the non-tamper evident buckets should be fine. I'll contact him tomorrow for a quote.
I'd still be on for 2 x 30L & 2 x 20L

Lads, I'm drawing the orders to a close. Cara Éire's is the last. The Packaging Centre sent me an initial quote but I've had to amend the list since then and I don't want to keep tinkering with the list.
Please remember that VAT needs to be applied to the prices quoted earlier in this thread. I'll break down the precise costs on Monday or Tuesday (depending on when I get a quote for the final list). They're offering some savings on the smaller buckets but the prices earlier in this thread are pretty much accurate.
Ok lads, I have the final quote in and I've broken down everybody's charges, including VAT and NHC contribution (See below).
The bank a/c for this bulk buy is Ulster Bank Celbridge, National Homebrew Club, sort code
The sooner everybody pays up the sooner we can arrange to pick up the buckets. As usual, post here on the forum to confirm that you have made the payment.
1. Dr Jacoby: €52
2. Mike: €29.50
3. rossa : €29.50
4. JamesM: €30
5. Jacob: €40
6. BlackBrew (Cork): €30
7. Trombyy : €10
8. Taf : €30
9. johnrm: €20.50
10. Cahalbrua: €20.50
11.flibustjer: €20.50
12. Ratsathome : €30
13. Padraic: €48.50
14. Colmc: €20.50
15. Declan (Cara): €71.50
If anyone wants to double check their charge, here is the breakdown of costs on the final quote (remember to add 23% for VAT and between 50c and €1.00 for the NHC contribution):
30L BUCKET = €8
20L BUCKET = €3.70
5L BUCKET = €1.81
2.5L BUCKET = €1.26
Oh, and here is the final list to help everybody remember what they ordered:
1. Dr Jacoby: 30L x 2 / 20L x 3 / 5L x 4 / 2.5L x 6
2. Mike: 30L x 2 / 20L x 2

QuoteGood work Peter, I'll pay up tomorrow (payday:))

I live in Naas so I'll probably borrow a van to pick up the buckets from the Naas Road and bring them home. I have space to store them until people can pick them up. We might need the NHC Express service to kick into action to sort everything out :D
Paid EUR16.

Excellent stuff. Will pay over on Thursday - payday.

Payday thursday for me to.i'm with Ulster bank so it will go straight in.
Payment made. If there are buckets coming down to Cork can I get in on that please.

Hi Sam. If nobody is actually coming to Cork, Johnrm and myself were thinking of getting them couriered down, as we have drip trays to get as well. Probably wouldn't be too bad if we all chipped in.
QuoteYour drip trays will be going via NHC Express to Cork this Saturday.
Actually to Cork or to Blaas country?
Paid for myself and tromby. (39.50)
Paid 20.50
€29.50 Paid! Big thanks to the guys who are organising this!
I'm based in Dun Laoghaire - would anyone be going by on the NHC express? ;)
I'll do it first thing in the morning sorry, couldn't find my bank card earlier, found it in work tonight though :)
Paid €52.00
Sorry guys - Ive been absent a while...
I'll pay up post haste.
Payment made... 30 euro. Mine probbaly won't have a name beside it but my acc number ends in 044
.... Now.... who's going to look into getting some of those 30l buckets and making NHC branded fermenters!! :p
Haha! Good idea! It would be great to make something as sturdy as the 60L Hop and Grape plastic fermenters that they used to sell.
Once we get the final payment from Cara Éire we are good to go. I'll let everybody know asap about collection/delivery options.
QuoteSister-in-law who lives in Cork is visiting us tomorrow, and returning to Cork on Saturday.
Sounds good. Let us know if she wants to drop them somewhere or be met to drop them off.
Quote€71.50 has just hit the account.
Peter, what day are you planning on collecting? I have the proforma invoice and we will pay them the day before.
:-[ sorry about that
I can collect any day this week.
He said in the last email that once he receives the payment he'll get the order together for collection. I'd say you're good to go to make the payment.
Great work Dr Jacoby!
From where will we be collecting from?
I can warehouse some in Naas and if people would prefer to collect from Shane's in Leixlip I can drop some up there too (I'll be heading there anyway to collect a drip tray from Shane).
Hopefully I'll have the buckets by tomorrow or the day after.

Would appreciate if you can leave mine with Shane if that's OK with him.
Is leixlip handy enough to get to by bus from dublin?
Ill collect mine from leixlip if thats ok shane
I would also like to collect mine from Shane.
Unless there will be someone going from leixlip to swords ;)
when are you getting the buckets? I'm not far from Sandyford ind. estate so I might be able to meet you if I have time.
Quotewhen are you getting the buckets? I'm not far from Sandyford ind. estate so I might be able to meet you if I have time.
Same! Otherwise I might be able to drop out to Naas on Saturday or Sunday as I am travelling to Kilkenny
I'd prefer to pick mine up in Leixlip as well. If that's not a problem...
I can collect city centre bound buckets (from Leixlip) if any one wants me to, just to compliucate the logistics.
Or if anyone is coming from Naas to the city centre and can save me getting Shane to look after more of my stuff!
The buckets were bought from the Packaging centre on the Naas Rd (close to the long mile road). I didn't go with Alpack because they couldn't source 30L buckets - so I won't be going to Sandyford.
I'm collecting everything tomorrow and dropping some out to Shane's place. Maybe we could get a list going (short notice I know) for people who want their buckets brought to Leixlip.

Will it be ok if I collect with the malt buy.
Shane, Ive buckets and a t-shiirt to collect.
You bringing them to the B&C tonight?
I can collect them another time if its going to be hassle.
I can take cara's bucket if he's bringing it - a vaccuum pack of malt broke in the boot of my car - its all over the camp so need a bucket quick :P
With all these white buckets passing back and forth in the B&C,other patrons might think that a meeting of the Dublin cow milkers fraternity have started. :D
Who has the remaining buckets, hoping to pick mine up over the weekend if that suits,

I was down for 3 buckets, you brought me in 1 with a lid that night in the lord edward. Declan brought back the one he was given too many, that night - but no lid. Does that mean you have 1 bucket and 2 lids for me?
thanks again Dr jacoby for setting up the group buy, had the beer last night, it was silky smooth for such a high %, cheers

I use 100 litre stainless steel drums like these for fermentors, and am very happy with them.
Will try get a price from them and see where a price break could come

Is the plastic in these buckets ok to be used as a boiler (using a pimped kettle element)?

This is a ciderhead question but I'd go with no!
I saw them only briefly and the ones I saw were not suitable :(
The wall thickness wasn't great either, just use the translucent brew buckets, they are fine.
Cheers lads.
Think i'll pick up a few buckets from alpack soon and i'll just convert the fermenter i have.
