Buckets

[sd_brewbie]

SWMBO says I have a problem.... Every time I go to home depot I buy a bucket, brewing has made this problem worse. I have a bucket for storing sanitizer, one for PBW and another to hold ice water for my chiller. I need a bucket to collect water and of course my bottling bucket (even though I keg). I bought another 2g bucket for a small batch fermenter. Then I need other buckets for things around the house (don't want to mix nasty stuff with my brewing stuff). I don't think my wife understands... I told her my dream is to design a bucket with both imperial and metric measurements etched on the bucket... I could be a bucket-neer... She said oh buck-et 😁

 

[Hello]

Buckets are useful.

I mean, you could collect dead animals, or bodies, or old machine parts.... She needs to see the glass is half full.

I have buckets. I like buckets. Buckets are good. Bucket. Bucket. Bucket. If you say it enough, it starts to lose all meaning. Bucket. Bucket.It's not even a word.

Tell her it takes 4.65 buckets to hold all the pieces of an average sized woman.

Buckets are cheap and they stack nicely. Really, there isn't much bad to say about them.

Except when you kick one.

One of my buckets was used for garden harvesting. Went to the local stores deli and picked up three more for $0.50 apiece. Who knows, another one may be repurposed next year. Be prepared.

I use a lot of buckets too. I even built a special attachment for the receiver hitch on my little tow motor (ex lawn tractor). Before anyone tells me how unsafe that high mounted hitch is, I have a long gravel driveway and I use it for moving those huge garbage bins that the city requires us to use. That bucket attachment on the back has proven the be the most useful of all the little mods that I have made to the little red jumart (Toro/Wheel Horse), except for possibly the dual beer holders.
