Large Storage Containers for DIY?

[ZW99GT]

Hey folks,

I've been mixing juice myself for about a year. I use a glass graduated cylinder for mixing and then pour into old 236ML bottles from Mt Baker Vapor for storage. I'm now mixing for a few other folks and I'm using up that 236ml before it's good and steeped most of the time. I'm looking for larger storage options for a batch this afternoon.

Got any ideas where I could find good 2L+ sterile containers at a local store around town? I don't mind recycling and using old wine/liquor bottles for myself, but I'd feel better storing in something new for giving to others. Thanks!

Are you looking for gallon jugs? Or trying to stay around the 2liter area?

I would likely buy a couple of either/both just in case.

You could always use a 1 gallon milk jug.

If you are going to store large quantities of pemixed juice I recommend storing them in brown glass.

I'm sure if they don't have 1 gal Glass Jugs that they can point you in the Right Direction.

Not sure why it is? But everyone I have ever talked to in DIY Beer stores are the Coolest people. Maybe it is because the are Constantly sampling their product.

For Quality Control purposes of course.
