FOUR x Commercial Bus Tubs [Brew Day and Beyond]

Cand Commercial Bus Tubs, 13 L Plastic Bus Box/Wash Basin

From the product description, check product page for current description, price and availability:

Outside: 17″x 13.2″ x 4.7″ Inside: 15.6″ x 11.8″ x 4.5″
Material constructed is of great durablity, which withstands lots of usages.
Working out perfectly for mixing, meat processing, washing, storage, etc.

I use two similar bus tubs [Note: Mine are a larger at 7 1/8 Gallons] on brew day and I find them invaluable. I keep one below my March Pump setup. It catches drips and also offers a place to store wet items such as stirring spoons, mash paddles, my mash stirring whisk and my equally invaluable 1 gallon pitchers. I reserve the other tub for clean and dry items. Having two of these helps me keep dry/clean and wet/dirty items separate and means less lugging stuff around on brew day.

Another potential use: ice down your favorite beverages for get-togethers.

Note that this whisk measures in at 6″ smaller than the whisk I mentioned above and that it is from a different manufacturer.

Possible homebrew applications: Use on brew day in your mash tun and brew kettle. In the mash tun… a whisk can help to break up doughballs. In the brew kettle… Use to incorporate extract, stir the brew kettle or start a kettle whirlpool.

Hands On Review: Winco 4 Ounce Stainless Steel Portion Cups – for Brew Day Measuring & Samples

I’ve long been an advocate of using these sorts of portion cups for homebrew-related tasks. I’ve kept small (2 to 2.5 ounce) portion cups in my Brew Day Box for years. See: Hands On Review: Stainless Steel Portion Cups – for Brew Day Measuring & Samples for a review of those.

When I ran across these larger 4 ounce cups at a great price, I picked them up to use around my homebrewery.

These are generally intended for serving condiments and small amounts of food. Considering their size, materials and efficient design, they are also well suited for use on brew day and around the brewery.
