Vital vaults for sacks of grain and Mason jars for brewing salts. I use the vacuum attachment on the jar for calcium chloride. I also store my acids inside Mason jars as well.

[@Bohern1]

Very cool and I have almost the exact same setup. One thing i did for the Dollar Tree containers was cut the label off the bag of specialty grain and tape it to the front of the container.

[@ShortCircuitedBrewers]

Nice

[@johng4503]

I know that you posted this a while ago, but I have to say, I’m glad I archived it because my local home brew shop just closed and I need to create my own little home brew shop of my own. Thank you for all the great tips and I can’t wait for your next video to post!🍻

[@timheffernan3577]

I use the Vittle Vaults for my base grains and and generally keep the specialty grains in the bags they come in. But you've give me some things to think about. The only thing I typically vacuum seal were hops, but I think I'll start packaging the specialty grains in smaller containers

[@ShortCircuitedBrewers]

Yeah it works really well.l! 👍🍻

[@JessicaNeidingHaverly]

I end up having too many 6 gallon buckets every fall from fresh CA grape juice purchases. Just bought 3 gamma lids to repurpose those buckets and make them grain storage. Perfect fit.

[@ShortCircuitedBrewers]

Nice!

[@crashtke]

With the price of today's specialty beers, it is probably half to 1/3 the cost to brew my own. This pays for the equipment pretty quick!

[@ShortCircuitedBrewers]

True!!

[@jonthebeau4653]

Good tip on the dollar tree I will have to check that out. I picked up 2 of the 60 pound vittle vaults on Ebay for just over $60 for the pair shipped.

I like the vital vaults just a bit pricey. I use the lids you mentioned in the video and 5 gallon food safe buckets. Found the lids at Home Depot and the buckets at Walmart for about half the price Home Depot wanted for the same buckets.

[@BitterRealityBrewing]

Excellent Job. I use the same big Vittles Vault containers and some of their smaller versions. I use to use containers from the dollar store but the ones I had didn't seal as well so I ended up buying the 32 oz Plastic Deli Containers from Amazon which is even cheaper compared to the dollar store and they can hold about 1 lb of adjunct grains plus they seal amazingly well. The 8 and 12 oz versions are good for other things like brewing salts and such. Keep up the great work.

[@ShortCircuitedBrewers]

Thanks Michael!! 👍🍻

[@anemlachhomebrewing3690]

Excellent and timely content, about to start my AG journey and have been looking at grain storage options. The vittles look like the way to go for large grain sacks but they’re hard to get ahold off in Australia without paying big bucks... Happy brewing!

For hops I use the food saver with the Mason jar attachment. No need for bags. Thanks for the video

[@erniewjr]

I do exactly the same thing you showed in your video. I am 250 miles from the nearest homebrew shop so I definitely buy in bulk. I have two vittles vaults for bags of pale malt and pils. Gama lids on six 5-gallon buckets for all of my other malts. I am still looking for a solution for keeping DME so that it doesn't get sticky.

[@ShortCircuitedBrewers]

Nice!! 👍🍻

[@lennyusefof8077]

Nice video. One thing you didn’t mention was temperature control. I live in Florida and store everything in my garage and in the summer it gets very hot and humid. Not sure how long the grains would keep in those conditions. I do use the vittle vaults and store my premade recipes in them for safe keeping. I usually buy 2-4 recipes from my LHBS at a time since it’s over an hour from my house.

[@ShortCircuitedBrewers]

Good point! Thanks for adding that tip! 👍🍻

[@gregwhit4032]

These are the best videos. I don’t know anyone who brews. I’m visual learner so I learn everything on KZbin on channels like yours.

I love brewing but I am the world's worst organizer. Any tip to keep things well kept is very much appreciated. I took the advice from one of your previous videos and am now storing all of my brewing salt in dollar tree containers. My wife went along for the ride and now we have a shelf of brewing salts and wine making material organized and labeled. Thanks!

[@ShortCircuitedBrewers]

That's awesome!! I bet she's happy on all counts! 👍🍻

[@Mike-hc5fb]

What about storage temperature though? I would have to store the grains in my garage, which can reach 100F in Summer.

[@ShortCircuitedBrewers]

Yeah I'm blessed with a basement..I forget about those that don't have them sometimes...👍🍻

[@John_Pzapza]

A source for 5 gallon buckets for free or very little charge is a Little Caesars Pizza. We use a release oil in our pans that comes in food grade buckets. If you ask the owner or manager of the store, I would be willing to bet they'd be happy to give them to you.

Great content. Been thinking about this same topic lately. I like these sorts of videos more than some of the equipment reviews; once I've invested in hardware, equipment reviews aren't so useful. Along those lines, videos detailing techniques are also the ones I see as most useful, even though they may require some ancillary hardware.

[@ShortCircuitedBrewers]

Thanks for that feedback!! 👍🍻

[@danion6840]

I like these videos. I am not in a place where I can or need to buy bulk grains yet, my LHBS has almost no overhead so he is dirt cheap, and I don't have the space for bulk storage right now, But I will be referring to this video again in the future when I have to move and have the space I want to brew in. Great video Brian. Thanks.

[@ShortCircuitedBrewers]

Thanks glad to hear it gives you some ideas! 👍🍻

[@maxpoole7610]

Not a storage question but an anvil foundry question! Have you seen the boiler and brew bags anvil are offering? And if so what are the differences between the two???

[@ShortCircuitedBrewers]

One of them is to use with the basket and one of them is to use without the basket.. I actually made a video where I used the one that's supposed to be used with the basket without a basket. And it worked fine.. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hITdfKaoi9RpgNU I also recently did a live Brew day where I use the same bag inside of the basket with good results.. 🍻👍

[@deckerhand12]

I got to look into this. So I don’t have grains for bad I have to use pound or half pound specialty grains when I brew so I don’t have grains go bad or go to waste.

[@ShortCircuitedBrewers]

Whatever works for you. 👍🍻

[@TheFloaterjoe]

Everyone should have a vacuum sealer! I used to buy grain in bulk and store it in the buckets with the black lids but my local homebrew shop got an ss mill. Now I would rather pay extra for the grain to get a better crush and save space in the brewery.

[@ShortCircuitedBrewers]

Hey that works too if you have a place close by..👍🍻

Damn! I have the exact same setup and it works like a charm. I would recommend every homebrewer to take the time to build something similar. It really satisfying to have a shelf well organized with your grains.
