Plastic Buckets from Allpack

[Dr Jacoby]

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:

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.

[JimmyM]

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)

[Mike]

I'd be interested in the 30L ones.  I'd go for two 20L too.

[Dr Jacoby]

Ok, well maybe we should start a list and see where it goes.

[DEMPSEY]

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?

[Dr Jacoby]

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
