- Included: Stainless lid
- Heavy-duty handle rated to support the bucket when full of water
- Moving ice or water in hash workflows
- Ice bath tek and general processing tasks
- Temporary water handling where plastic would normally be used
- Bulk food prep (broth, fermenting, brining)
- Beer brewing (hot water handling, fermentation support)
- Gardening and KNF inputs (FPJ, teas, mixes)
- This bucket is lightweight and utilitarian , not overbuilt
- Treat it like a tool, not a tank
- If you want something bomb-proof, that’s what our tanks are for
- I was tired of seeing plastic buckets everywhere: moving ice, hauling water, soaking bags, handling material, even doing ice bath tek . Not just in my own lab, but in customer labs too. Plastic buckets are cheap and convenient, but it scratches, holds odor, and doesn’t belong in a clean workflow.
- So I brought in a stainless option.
- Since then, I’ve found a lot more uses for it than I expected. I now have five of these at home and use them for everything from bulk food prep (my annual beef broth marathon), to beer brewing, to mixing FPJ for the garden. Once you have a stainless bucket around, plastic starts to feel unnecessary.
- Material: 21-gauge 304 stainless steel
- Thin by design to keep weight down
- Capacity: 8 gallons
- More volume than a standard 5-gallon bucket
- Dimensions:
- 13.5" tall
- Design:
- Conical shape allows multiple buckets to stack neatly
- Included:
- Stainless lid
- Because plastic buckets don’t belong in clean labs.
- This is the simplest possible upgrade: same workflow, better material.
- Once you have one, you’ll probably want more.
