I currently have one 6.5 gallon glass carboy, but Im looking to go much bigger. I know there are used 50 gallon rum barrels out there, and Im really going for something cheap. Whats the best value per gallon container out there for fermentation?

i've seen a lot of people buying stuff from usplastics - if you are ok with food grade plastic they seem to be good for barrels, etc.

Probably way to big but there you go.

Im in california, so those are a bit far. Im looking for more about 50 gallons than 250 though. Those stainless tanks look real nice but they are waaaaaaay to expensive for me.

Brute garbage cans. Any garbage can that's new and is either #1 or #2 plastic.

Feed stores sometimes have sales on farm water tanks. Somewhere around 200 gallons.

There was a guy who posted here a couple weeks ago offering plastic drums. He was in Ontario, CA. I'll see if I can find the thread.

Where are you in California?

Morebeer had a ton of them for sale last week when I was at the Concord showroom.
