I store mine in a Vittles Vault. Airtight, keeps pests away, easy to open, easy to clean. Keeps food fresh. You should be able to find something similar on Amazon or at your local pet store.
I can fit a whole 50lb sack with room for a bit more in one of the vittles vaults. This is the one i have https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002DJOOI
They are really really frigging dangerous. I still use them, but I shrivel up a little every time I pick one up in a bear hug, (brewhauler hurts the crap out of my back - not built for short guys!).
Here was my last fallen solder....didn't dent the concrete at all!
I'm strongly considering switching to 15 gal plastic fermenters. 1 fermenter instead of 2 for my batches, easy peasy. Except I'm unsure how I'll hoist it up onto my bench to gravity transfer to the keg....might have to switch to pressurized transfer...
Edit: This post convinced me. Just pulled the trigger on a 13 gal vittles vault for $38. I figure I can rig up something to push the beer into kegs with CO2 once I get it. Any tips out there?
Like others have mentioned, I use the Vittles Vault-- the one I have holds 50lbs of food with no issues. It is airtight/watertight/insect proof. A bit pricey, but worth it.
Yes, get the basic 7 gallon brew bucket. Drill a hole in the lid with their drill bit. Add the bulkhead. Add a TC to ball lock gas post. Now you can do closed transfers.
I also love my Tilt and TiltPi running on a Pi Zero.
With all that cash you won't mind a large grain storage bin perfect for 50 pound grain sacks.
You can break down your pound bags of hops into smaller bags with a vacuum sealer.
Try an RO system and upgrade it with a 14 gallon pressure tank (can't find the link).

Whatever option you choose beware that lifting it is gonna be a bitch. I added a spigot to mine to help with racking to keg.
Yeah, this seems pretty complicated as some others are saying as well. As a software dev myself, I often find DIY electronics have a much higher risk of failure because you forget about an odd scenario (ex. float switch failure) that eventually causes a huge headache (ex. flooded house).
Are you already using a controller for your tank? If not, I would just get one and upgrade it to eventually run auto-water changes. It of course will do much more as well all of which will help keep your tank stable and happy.
If you do have a controller, this can be done by using two equal strength pumps that put water in a tank water out at a set time every day/week.
Either way, having my 80 gallon in a small city apartment my GF is always on me about tank stuff being around the place. I bought this Dog food storage container as it holds about 12 gallons of water for my ATO. It also fits perfectly inside a cabinet from Ikea (couldn't find the link, sorry).
If you choose the DIY route, good luck!
Vittle Vaults are another option and what I've started using.
That's the thing, we actually bought one of these things and they're already in there.
I've never heard about these things before, never would have occurred to me that moths could get into food like this.
If you can get them on sale they also aren't too pricey. I got this 50 lb one a few weeks ago for $25 shipped. It holds a 55lb sack no problem.

For me I just wanted something a bit more sturdy in case it fell off a shelf or something.
I going attempt to ferment in one of these.
14" by 14" foot print should fit.

This makes a great fermenter for 10 gallon batches.

I use ant-proof bins. The one I use for my dogs is this one on amazon. I think they sell them at petsmart.

One bigger one like that for lump and one smaller one for smoking wood.
Hey, thanks. I'd have never known to even look for that sub.
I'm lifting one of these with 10 gallons of wort in it. It's 14 x 14 x 20 inches and probably weighs over 80lbs when I'm moving it. It needs to stay upright.
The steps are four concrete steps leading straight into my apartment. It's nice and easy with two sets of hands, makes me think that a strap or device could help me manage the awkwardshape/crappy handles.
I'll repost this over to /r/moverporn later, that makes a ton of sense.
We have the Vittles Vault 50 lb Storage Container and we are able to stuff a 28.6 lb Orijen Six Fish kibble bag into it.
To give you more info, Orijen makes really stiff bags that come vacuum sealed as a giant brick until you open it.
It definitely takes some effort and elbow grease to fit the bag into the container. But that's mostly because you're trying to fit a long rectangular shape into a smaller circular hole. It's difficult, but doable.
If you want to fit 30 lbs of kibble (bag and all) in, I really recommend you getting a Vittles container that's bigger than the 40 lb size.
As funny as this is, I've heard stories of dogs getting stuck and suffocating like this. I'd recommend getting a food storage bin. Makes the food last longer too
We use this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0002DJOOI/ref=cm_sw_r_other_apa_sgl5xbGD5G65M which works pretty great. I can't see your dog getting into that.
My brewing partner and I use these, and IMO they are only OK.
Admittedly, we fill them to be too full. Grain spills out when we open them. They get heavy and slightly collapse the low container on the totem pole, just a meh option.
Meanwhile, the bigger vittles vaults are great. as is the roller, square dog food container we bought, because we are not tempted to stack them and you access through the roof.
