RE: perfect storage
Water doesn't seem to be a problem to store but not sure if we need to store much in the UK. Just make sure you can process it.

Food though seems to go off as soon as you start processing it and the more processing the quicker it seems to go off. Nature is best so you are best keeping your food on the hoof or in the soil as well. However, in saying that I have lots of tins of foodstuffs and dried food such as pasta. In general cool places, little light and protected from little teeth is a general storage requirement.

Anything in particular you are thinking about?

Water:

Be sure to us food grade containers, and if second hand be certain what was in them before you got them.

Keep plastic containers away from direct contact with concrete floors

Remember water is bloody heavy. A one meter cube of it weighs literally a ton. So don't be tempted to store lads of it in the loft.

Of course as NR said dehydrated water is the answer as its much lighter and folds down to easily concealed packets.

Ex. Military ammo cans (metal) make great storage containers.
Relatively cheap and vermin proof.
I got some for a mate living in isolated bush, who had Rats chewing through plastic storage containers.
Problem solved...

Sorry, just to clarify, that should have read Crates, not cans as most people would think of tubes rather than rectangular boxes I was referring to.
