I'll go to the local hardware store and get one.
but how big do I need?
since 1 cup (250ml volume) of flour weights 150g...
That means the flour will take up around 10 litres of volume.. (9205ml)
I'll estimate the same weight for the salt & yeast.. ~320ml
and say 3600ml of water..
means I need a container -at least- 14L in volume just for mixing...
so 30L+ to allow for proofing area...
So the rule of thumb is to treble the weight to get the volume required in litres...
I think 45L to be safe
