So I have some food safe buckets I just bought for grain storage, but I have quite a few more food safe buckets I got for free awhile back - the catch?
They were used to store pickles for a restaurant. Now one would think after washing with soap, gallons of hot water and StarSan that the smell would be gone....nope! I'm thinking hot water and bleach may be my next try, either bleach or oxyclean.
I don't want to use them with grain storage, transferring water or anything related to brewing since I feel it could impart some tastes.
Pickleweizen does not sound like a trend that is primed for taking off anytime soon.
Anything I can do to remove the odor? They are about 7 gallons each, and I'd like to call them into service if I can get the smell out...
