i wasn't sure where to stick this, and since this may be of interest to other beginers......
every so often i've seen people asking for sources of cubes to put hot wort/wash into to cool/store before fermenting. i'd gotten some small water containers 5/10l from bunnings, but these turned out to be pretty hopeless for small quantities since the lids don't seal very well. :crying-blue: they do have 25l cubes with proper seals however.
the surprise came when i was in supercheap auto. they had 15l and 25l cubes for drinking water, as well as 10 and 5l squat bottles made from the same thickness plastic with proper lids. they seem pretty sturdy. so if if you are like me and do smaller batches or odd quantities, it might be worth a look. :D
