Yeah, I think I'll go for that in the short term at least. Now I just need to find a homebrew shop in London.

Although I guess any large buckets will do.

Sure: buckets, old fridges, wooden boxes, kettle bbqs etc. Dave (saucisson) even used a bin bag:

Hahahaha. Amazing!

I'm wondering about using a 60 ltr plastic bin as a smoker. Sound sensible?

by **wheels** » Sat Sep 17, 2011 5:49 pm

I don't see why not. Food grade would be best to be on the safe side.

Thanks Phil. How do you mean a food grade dustbin?

Oh heck! Covering my backside really! Logically, as the product won't be in contact with the container, and as the smoke is cold, I'd guess that there will be no problem.

However, we have members that know better about plastics than I do, so to my shame I covered my bum! :lol:

The answer to your initial post (in my view) is, yes, I'd do it.

Being food grade there is no problem (I use them for brine tanks) so long as they do not catch on fire :shock:

theres no problem

Excellent. I'll probably actually use a big clear plastic box so I can see whats going on a little more easily. Pictures to follow soon.
