Caution--All grain stored in buckets must be low moisture. LDS guide recommends 10%. Feed corn is bagged at 15% moisture. This will rot long term. Must be dried before going into the bucket. DO NOT rely on moisture absorbers to lower 15% to 10%. Dry the grain and measure moisture. I have heard of corn buckets exploding from moisture rot.

If you have a local Firehouse subs they sell buckets for $2 and proceeds go towards local firefighters. Otherwise many local restaurants will give you buckets.

Bought some of these and after doing the usual wash and even with bleach keeping it out in the sun for a few weeks took the pickle smell out! Works every time.

There are two "basic" types of wheat:- Hard and soft. Besides hard wheat being harder (really?) it is also higher% protein, usually around 12% and makes good bread. Soft wheat is around 8% and is way cheaper, and is easier to grind finer and better for cakes. NB. soft wheat, being easier to chew, is also usually the 'animal fodder' kind. All purpose flour is a mixture of both types and the % protein changes. The rule of thumb is lower % the further south, higher % the further north. In Canada our all purpose flour is around 11%, the same as many American bread flours (all hard wheat). Try to store hard wheat if you want to make bread. Amen brother

"Regarding HDPE#2, the resin is food safe, but the dye, the lubricants and the chemical cleaners they use on the line could be mutagenic, carcinogenic or cause renal issues. Some flush out with urine, some stick to your internal fat. That's why the resin isn't the indicator for food contact safety, it's the international food safe symbol."

Name Removed Thank you... not ignorant to this fact. However, if this food is ever actually needed, the last thing on anyone’s mind will be the then luxury of organic this and that. i.e. When ones stomach is riding their backbone, no one is going to care.

@@FletchDoesIt I 100 percent get it. I have both non-organic and organic long storage foods (legumes). I'll eat the organic to keep them relatively fresh and the non-organic may go to the food bank. I may get some organic wheat as I suspect it will sprout better than the RoundUp sprayed grains. I am not a huge fan of wheat but sprouted wheat might work as a fresh food under some dire circumstances.

fyi-Walmart has the food grade bucket cheap, the same price, at least when I went last year. It is good you called as not all companies do the same bucket grade. You all are doing a good thing, glad I am not there with my wheat allergy, lol. Thanks for sharing and blessings on the journey.
