I leave the grain in the bags and put the bags in plastic storage tubs.
I don’t purchase my base malts in bulk....yet. But I simply reseal my specialty grains in the plastic bags they were bought in using my FoodSaver machine. I can’t use the FoodSaver to pull a vacuum due to the type of bag, but forcing the air out and resealing the bag is easy.https://www.amazon.com/FoodSaver-Vacuum-Machine-Starter-Certified/dp/B0044XDA3S/ref=sr_1_3?crid=3KZO20U4BTPTS&keywords=foodsaver&qid=1551964131&s=gateway&sprefix=Foodsaver%2Caps%2C799&sr=8-3
I prefer to let the dealer store bulk ingredients. I simply buy from a high volume dealer about a week out to ensure fresh quality grains are delivered just in time to brew. This allows me spontaneity and variety without consuming space for storage. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
Vittle Vaults are my go to storage container, but I also use buckets with gamma lids. Both are good. The VV are large enough to hold a full sack.https://vittlesvault.com/products/outback-50/

Sent from my iPad using TapatalkThere's wisdom here. When I start to accumulate little jars with odds and ends of specialty grains I may never use up, I am inspired to reboot, discard said grains and return to simplified recipes. I hate to feel compelled to complicate a recipe or brew a certain style to use a grain just because it's there on the shelf.
