Thanks for the replies! I'm in central TX, and I'm planning a trip to Austin Homebrew for my b-day in August. I think I'll pass on these and see what I can find down there.

I'm looking for these exact barrels for fermenting 10 gallon batches. The seller claims they aren't food grade. When asked why he said they held car wash soaps and related chemicals.
How would you guys feel about washing, sanitizing...
