In my garage in a plastic 25lt container with a sheet over it.
It's not a bomb buddy, perfectly safe as long as the top is screwed on.

Is there any issues with temperature? Ie if you store it in your shed and during the winter it drops to minus 10 or more? I know it won't freeze but will it effect it in any way?

Best to be kept at a fairly constant temp. I wouldn't recommend leaving it outside in the elements but somewhere undercover with a sheet over is fine.

Why the sheet if it's in the sealed steel drum?
