Do you collect/reuse Folgers Coffee Tubs?

[gemoose23]

So I reuse the Folgers plastic containers for my reloading needs, i.e. brass sorted by caliber, by stage of processing, boolits, trimming supplies... I found that they actually designed some templates for them.... the blank templates are on the bottom.

Lol I use anything with a lid. Butter,coffee,whip cream, cookie jars. Yeah I probably should change my diet. Lol

Too small. Just have too much brass for them tiny things.

Expresso baby!!

I use Sour Punch Twists buckets that are left over for brass; does the trick.

I manged to score enough of the Costco sourdough pretzel containers to store spent brass in, but I have a few of thse Folgers containers lying around work and home, cause I can't bring myself to throw them out - they look too handy; just don't know in what capacity yet - LOL.

Thanks for the link, might be just what I needed to find a "use" for them.

They are getting smaller (shorter containers in the last few months, with a smaller amount of coffee). The one I got at Sam's Club was pretty big even compared to the old ones at the local supermarket. I have TONS of them, and used to keep notebook computer parts in them, but I use Folgers, Yuban, and Maxwell House. The Maxwell House used to have handles molded in, but not in the new smaller size.

I used to use plastic Ice Cream tubs, and (generic, local store) Circus Animal plastic, until I got too much brass for those flimsy containers...

Did I have enough Coffee for that weekend? Yup, sure did.

I usually use plastic Peanut Butter jars and similar containers for projectiles.


I have a shut-ton of labels from work that would otherwise be discarded and just stick them to the side of the bin after writing what I need to on them. I turned the labels away from the camera to hide my chicken-scratch.

I use the Folgers Coffee jugs for brass in calibers I don't shoot a ton of & the Almond containers from Costco for bulk bullet storage. For my 9/45/223 brass, I use 5 gallon buckets. I just print out labels on computer paper & slap them on with packing tape.

Man I probably have close to 30 of The large gallon size ones. Love em and use em for everything.

I have been known to repurpose a container or two



This is all brass that has been resized and deprimed. Waiting to be wet tumbled.

The new plastic folgers are my standard brass/ammo storage containers. They're strong enough. I use stick on labels to keep track.

Folgers

That's OCD right there.

I only use the Costco sized ones, but yes they are very useful.

I agree, 1 gallon at the smallest, mostly 5 gallon size needed for brass. Bullets stay in original packaging for me.

Crummy coffee. And too small. I use 5 gallon buckets from my wife's horse supplements for brass.
