I have just moved into a new place with a group of avid home brewers and we are now lacking 30L primaries, only having 3 between us. Does anyone know a good place to get...

I was gonna say Home Depot but I guess they're not food grade. Looks like restaurants or a bakery is your best bet for cheap ones.

AFAIK, the home depot buckets are the same poly as the restaurant ones - but you can always have a look at the bottom of the bucket to check the code - look here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Food_safe_symbol BTW if you are looking for a bucket that can hold aprox 100L, home depot did use to carry a large garbage can that was marked as food safe, I have one that I do an occasional batch of wine in. Another approach is to use a food safe poly bag inside the bucket (liner) - A little more tricky to transfer with this but makes cleanup easy.
