55 gallon blue storage barrel from Bascom Maple
Last year I bought one of the 55 gallon blue storage barrels that comes with the removable and clamp sealing lid, from Bascoms Maple.
Has anybody had a problem with the foam gasket that is around the circumference of the lid to these barrels breaking down at all and thus getting into the barrel and sap?
If you think it's easy to make good money in maple syrup .... then your obviously good at stealing somebody's Maple Syrup.
