Can we see a video similar to this, on you " liquid" ingredients? Interested in buying your shampoo/ cleaners/soap/ vinegar/honey etc in the bulk containers but HOW do you transfer it to smaller containers for storage/use? How do you install/use the spouts? What spout goes to what container? What might each spout/container be used for? I have questions...lol! Just trying to not make a mess/waste anything.

Love the shelving for the gallon jars! Showing my husband so he can build us one!! Great video thanks for sharing and I would love to see more of this kind of ideas!

@TXDHC 5 месяцев назад

I love the gallon and half gallon jars but I sure wish jars were created square to fit better in a square cabinet. I’m sure a design engineer could have figured that out years ago. Those are some nice additions to the Azure inventory.

@shervin6711 5 месяцев назад

Maybe square on the outside, a little rounder on the corners inside, so its still easy to wash. Would love that!

@AbigailPoirier 5 месяцев назад

Yes, square is so much more efficient! Watching this, I really feel like I lucked out on my family's pantry-- we have consistent and square containers for almost everything and the containers were mostly "free" (with the purchase of the food inside them). The downside is that they're probably the worst type of plastic possible. Since we go through the ingredients pretty quickly, they're kept in a dark pantry, and these containers are only used for dry ingredients, it's a trade-off I'm happy to make. Can't imagine how much money & space we'd have to sacrifice to use gallon glass jars & buckets!

This is wonderful! Is it possible to get the dimensions of the pantry shelf with the gallon glass jars? Thank you so much!

I am nuts about organization. While I don't have the room to put a shelf like what is in this video in my kitchen, I have a very small enlosed pantry upstairs in my kitchen. I have my regular use continers in there, along with larger containers of staples like different flours, and nutritional baking supplies. I do have a larger food storage room downstairs that I keep all of the larger containers and my regular food storage. I have an Excel Spreadsheet that I have created to log what I have, quantity and whether it has short expiration/freshness times. I am trying to weed out things that I know are not healthy, but unfortunately, my husband is not keen on that, so I do the best that I can. Years ago, I purchased half gallon glass jars from a wholesale container place in Idaho when I lived there. The jars were only 19 cents at the time, but the lids were 30 cents. Even so, 49 cents for a half gallon glass jar was a special deal. I got over 600 of them. I use them for my herbs mostly. I do love to wildcraft, but where I live now, I don't have that option much any longer. I have also purchased gallon glass jars from a wholesale container place about an hour from me. I'm always on the lookout for storage containers. I purchased 2 dozen square shaped glass containers from the dollar store. Now, of course all of these types of containers are much more expensive, but I still look for useful things that I can keep on hand. Thanks for your video. I really enjoy seeing how others provide for their famiilies.

I love the 2 gallon pails with gamma lids. Stack well and easy access. I also use many one gallon jars and really want custom designed shelving for them.

I love storage and organization items. An organized pantry makes me so happy. I have some of these items already and plan to buy many other items in the future! We love Azure in our home!

@Nicathatsme 5 месяцев назад

Those colour coded labels would be good way to stay on top of expiration dates or purchase dates to keep things rotated.

@lauradyer6421 5 месяцев назад

What a great pantry option... might use a version of this jar/ shelving idea for ourselves. Those bulk bins are great but out of my budget right now. Great options. 🙂

@mykindpharm 5 месяцев назад

Would love to get the glass jars in an amber or cobalt blue glass ❤

@HHteach2001 5 месяцев назад

That shelf is awesome. Great idea!

@stevehartman1730 5 месяцев назад

Get cinder blocks and put wood same width of the blocks then repeat n repeat till to ceiling. Very roomy n strong, mobile if want to move shelves. No need screws or nails . Looks good n economical.

@amynazza 2 месяца назад

That would work great except in earthquake country

@Mindy56743 3 месяца назад

Myself I have a hodgepodge of jars from gallon to pint and buckets and even a few 25 gallon barrels. Depending on what it is.. also the Mylar bags that some of the spices come in work great for storage and you can refill from them.. I have a box of herbs and spices in the bags that I reseal

@WillowofMoonHaven 5 месяцев назад

I'm excited about the bulk bins!

I love the storage ideas!

@hairstoyou7248 2 месяца назад

Great new items. I thought it would be great if the labels you put in your products like bags of wheat berries was removable so when we transfer it to a bucket all we have to do is use your label already printed out. Or include one that can be put on the bucket. My handwriting isn’t as nice as the printed label

Love the wooden pantry shelves, do you have the plans to construct them?

@shervin6711 5 месяцев назад

Thank you for these ideas, I would have added visual examples of how big your bags are, and what jars fit what. Mentions do help though. When I first started buying dry items in bulk, this was a struggle, a bit scary, because I had no idea what 5lbs of your pasta/ or 25lbs of flour might look like, after being so used to buying in 1-5lb containers. The conversion of 1gallon-5gallon to pounds may have been my concern.

@bridgetwilkins312 5 месяцев назад

I wanted to see your actual pantry and maybe inside your cabinets and how you have that set up for daily use and refills.

Didn't know about the labels, just ordered some. Thx.

@neilmunro6683 5 месяцев назад

This was informative and helpful .. However from a caterer/former chefs perspective, the counter top distributors should not be clear but dark in colour to prevent light exposure of ingredients.. Well ladled ingredient's are a second defence to prevent food spoilage and to monitor shelf life of the products stored.. I was un clear as to weather the lids of the food distributors had a seal/gasket to prevent or minimalize air entering the container.. Kindness Lochness scottish Highlands..

Can we get construction "plans" of sorts for the pantry shelves?

@KarenRolling 5 месяцев назад

I've noticed that Smart & Final uses the bulk storage bins and sometimes ants like to get into them from the dispenser slot. What is suggested to keep pests out from that area of the bulk bins

If anyone uses a pump that works on the 5 gallon bucket can you please link it. I have ordered 2 or 3 on Amazon and they don’t fit or aren’t long enough.

@paulahenriksen3250 Месяц назад

The bins are very expensive. I wish i could afford them but until they go on sale or come down in price most of us cant afford them.

@ScottsLifeOffGrid 5 месяцев назад

Excellent and very helpful video. I would like to know where she gets her 1 gallon and 1/2 gallon jars and most importantly the lids for them. Thank you

@michele7872 5 месяцев назад

Azure Standard sells both the jars and lids. The jars don't come with lids, so you have to order the lids separately. I use the gallon and half gallon jars and they are wonderful.

@maureenhargrave3568 5 месяцев назад

I am constantly shopping at thrift stores and garage sales for canning jars. I only buy the Ball brand and mostly wide mouth. I find half gallon quite frequently. By using the wide mouth jars some come with rings and lids but I can find new supplies on eBay, Amazon, hardware stores, etc. The solid lids I have gotten on Amazon.

@marthasundquist5761 5 месяцев назад

I have to say, I was worried about bugs when i started ordering in bulk, so i placed pantry moth traps, and roach bait discs in my area in the basement that i store my big buckets of grains, flour, pastas, etc in. Haven't seen a roach or caught a pantry moth down there in at least 2 years. Now, If i could just get hubby to quit buying boxes of things he likes and shoving them in my working pantry ...i could pretty much eliminate the need for traps up there...but he doesn't like to take the time to transfer contents to clean bug proof containers. I do what i can...but seems I frequently find another 'sugary' cereal box or cream of wheat box he got on sale shoved in the back and neglected...pull it out.. whoops, in the outside trash it goes before they fly out or crawl elsewhere. Was astounded to find a container of almonds that got forgotten full of moths...probably should have been frozen before putting into a storage container...but since they were raw, were probably rancid anyway since they had been lost and forgotten. Goung to habe to look into some more of these easy ideas!
