Nothing wrong with storing grain in a rubber-maid is there?

[tim_s]

Hi,

I just got a grain mill and I am modifying a lid to a rubber-maid for the grain mill to sit on top. I have a second version of the lid that is unmodified. Can anyone see a reason why I cannot use a non-food specific *cleaned* rubber-maid for the storage of milled grain for 3-4 hours - possibly a day max? It is just storage between milling and adding to the sparge.

i've used rice stored in rubbermaids, no issue.

No. It's a dry grain. It's not going to leach anything.

Storing milled grain in containers leads to crapulence affliction and periodic polyuria.
