By the way, the barrel you're using is 30 or 50 gal? I'm looking for a used food grade one, any idea where to look for one so that I can save a lot of space for storing more than 10 nos. of 5 gal buckets. Thanks!
Its at least a 50 Gal I got it from Spagnols. It is a used grape container so food safe.
I know you can buy barrels on graigslist. Not sure what was in them but the picture showed the white ones and they are normally food safe.

Ouch, sorry to see that happen to you.

Like some others mine is beside a floor drain so when I did forget it wasn't a big deal.
