Right now, I've got a problem. During installation, the gasket for the lid was not correctly installed. A five-year-old put it on, as if it were his own clothes. 1 & 2 Not only did it not travel around the outer edge as it was supposed to, but it was too In order to fill in the gap left by the gasket after correctly identifying the location of the gasket that came with it, I used some old weather stripping. In order to replace the gasket properly (pic 3) you would probably have to spend about a third of the original price. Make sure you are prepared to invest a couple of extra dollars in securing a good seal. This should have been helpful, I hope.
This is made of the same kind of plastic that milk jugs are made of. They will be used for fermenting. problem is that a typical grommet for a lock will not work because the lid is too It is a bit difficult to remove the tight lid once it is on. It is simple to do this task with a 2x4, 2ft long that fits perfectly in the slot on the lid. does not ensure air tightness as it is made of open cell foam, which is not ideal for fermenting. Furthermore, we do not know what glue you are using. The gasket was removed, and I replaced it with BPA free 3/8 ID Vinal To hold it in place, I cut it lengthwise so that I could fit it around the lip of the tub with a little food safe silicone. The ends of the rope should be sealed However, even with the effort and modifications, they are still far less expensive than buying something labelled as a fermenter of.
My greenhouse takes advantage of these containers to store water. In order to maintain the warmth in my winter house, I needed a very specific size of pipe that would fit the top row of water barrels. My greenhouse looks so fun with these barrels! I would have normally ordered metal barrels, but these were perfect because they are the right size. I wish they were black though so they could absorb heat better. Unlike Rubbermaid, I chose not to use softer rubber, since I think it might break down over time. Considering the size and construction of this, I expect it will last a long time. If you wanted to use it for storage and a small stool, you could definitely sit on it. The problem of storing water is as follows In my case, there is no movement after the containers are filled, so they are excellent for my use. A little splashes from the top of the cups occur when the cups are nearly full and being moved. The lid might not have been fully screwed on, although I thought it was. It's just good to be aware if you're filling it with something and plan to move it and don't want to have it.
They were suitable for fermenting my sour mash, which I bought two of them. For a keg boiler, the capacity is adequate. I do not have a blow-off problem with that grain, as there is plenty of head space Fermentation that is vigorous is unlikely to produce outs. Thank you,

There was a massive vacuum inside this container, which caused the lid and bottom to concave in and deform the edges of the lid, as well as causing the container to not sit flat. There has been an attempt by three men to unscrew this lid from the container but they are unable to do so due to it being so tightly sucked on to the seal. I will likely have to drill a hole in it and release the vacuum, which defeats the purpose of using a container that is sealed. The purchase looks like it would have been a good purchase except for that. My only complaint is that I can't return the item since a defective one was shipped out and the rest of it would have been great.
Fermentation of whole heads of cabbages can be accomplished with this size. Be sure to use non-toxic cleaning products To get perfect results without iodine, you must use iodized salt Add 1 tablespoon (standard measuring spoon) of salt to 1 litre of water to concoct the brine. It is better to use more The horseradish root, quince, and cheese are great additions to this dish A few pieces of color-coordinated dill spears (for color). 2. 3 to 4 pieces of sliced color. This barrel was larger than the smaller 10 gallon version I used, and I used 18 pieces of flathead cabbage (total of 30 gallons). I was able to get it to the perfect shape grew this cabbage in a 20 gallon barrel using much larger, heavier cabbage (9 large heads), At least six weeks have passed since I stored it at room temperature. You can make cabbage rolls with this food. It tastes much better than regular sauerkraut. My favorite part of these containers is the lid. It is possible to open and close a lid very tightly with a small piece of 2x4 cut to size. Though I had to remove the black foam gasket tape from the inside of the lid. It's dangerous for food to be handled like that. These containers were a great find for me. A beat ferments cabbage in small buckets of five gallons. With all that weight on it, I can still move it slightly and it feels as It will be a good gift for relatives in the future. Lastly, I would like to point out There is minor plastic flash on the container and lid, as well as some relatively sharp edges from the This will take care of getting rid of burrs on the edges. Amazon sells a plastic deburring tool (about six dollars) that will do the job. When you have a perfect container, you will be happy.
I like the size of this spill containment bucket, and it's very sturdy as you could expect. The only reason I gave 4 stars was that it took me two hours to remove the plastic that was melted on. I included photos. You might want to check the heat tunnel temperatures at the Eagle Co. if you read this.
A composter was the purpose of this purchase. By twisting on the lid, you now have easy access to add compost to the bin and empty it, as well as the ability to turn the bin any way you want to speed up composting. During the day, I remove it to allow the contents to air and get some sun, and at night, I close it up securely to prevent night raiders such as raccoons from getting in. The bin was not interested in by the group, but given that it is made of thick plastic, there is not likely to be a problem.
