So, I see Rubbermaind is posting baskets using quarts as their unit of measure. Bags in stores are quoted in gallons? My public schooling fails me!

Four quarts in a gallon. This 28+ quart basket is equal to about 7 gallons so you would use an 8 gallon bag.

You use approximately 2 quarts. There is a fill line, but you need to remember that whatever food you put in the basket will displace the oil so don't add too much or it will spill over. We strain the oil and reuse it several times.

13 gallon bags work fine. No need to buy proprietary bags. One neat trick I found is to place the top or the trash bag over the outside container handles so that it holds the bag in place. This keeps the bag from slipping to the bottom of the trash can when placing heavy trash items in it and allows you to fill the bag completely.

to near the top, it is 10 quarts, as marked inside the bucket. Useful and more manageable, not spilling when carrying, easily 2 gal. It is a more sturdy bucket that anything available at places like Walmart. Like I said, it is marked inside bucket every 2 quarts. If you need a 2-qt bucket, it is wonderful. I've had one just like it for 15-20 years. Still good, I just wanted a second one.

One gallon should do it! You can have an extra quart on hand just in case. My event (SummerFest for Nursing Home) was 3 hours long and I used 1 gallon, though, when I noticed it ran out, I'm not sure if it had been empty 5 min. or 20 min. as I was busy. On 2nd thought, I just realized I still have some left in that gallon jug. Hope this helps!

You're correct. This was a gift to a friend, so don't know if was 2 or 3 gallons. I wouldn't even guess, but the volume is all you'd want in a bucket of this type. Okay, Seller, fix your wording.

They are 0.491 mil (.000491 inch) thick. They have the feel of most grocer's store and Walmart bags in thickness. Volume-wise, they are rated at 1/6 barrel (= 21 quarts = 5.25 gallons = 0.7 cubic feet). Weight-wise, I don't know if the bags can hold 42 lbs (5.25 gallons of water). The most I've had in them is about 15 lbs.

I would purchase a gallon because it has many uses. A Qt is probably plenty for this one job.

It is apparently a mistake, My container say "Net W Think it is a mistake. My container reads "NET WT. 1 1/4 OZ. Should last a long time. (You can get it cheaper.). BG

Probably everyone is different. Our now considerable experience is "the bucket" needs to be filled about 2 1/2 times. That's using the 7 gallon "bucket" from home colonics.

Barb, did it occur to you that the advice you conveyed was less valuable than the time you wasted in typing it? Probably not.Let me clarify my original question for the Barbs of this world. Would someone that has the cup that came with the unit kindly pour water in the cup up to the line, then pour that volume of water into a measuring cup and post the actual measurement? The best measurement Waring would give me over the phone was "fill up to the line" which, without the cup, is about as useful as advice from Barb.

It's been a while and I cannot specifically be accurate, although picture this. Your common one gallon of milk in the plastic container, two of them stacked one above the other and I believe you come very near to the sizing of one 8 quart zip locked vermiculite.

I didn't measure but it seems to be like a gallon bag size. I have filled a lot of sachets and have a lot left over to change them out. It is a good product.

As I recall, the capacity is 30 quarts. I would be leery of buying from any vendor where this kind of basic information isn't supplied. Not all vendors are created equal. Just because you're buying on amazon doesn't mean anything. People get on here that have gotten their goods from other sources, and they aren't necessarily very connected to the company whose goods they're selling. So be sure to look very closely at all the details of your potential transaction, because you might be getting into a bad deal. Sorry to go on forever about this, but the fact that information this basic isn't supplied raises major red flags with me.

I would suggest the 5.5 quart. I think I'm going to order one of those today. Good luck.

Apparently there are 2 sizes. You pick the one you want. I have the 17 oz which is close to a pint. I have one that's a little bigger than a quart, but I don't have one 77 oz. That would be bigger than a half gallon.
