Usage Instructions
Oak barrels are used for aging beverages and enriching their taste. Before first use, the barrel should be filled with water and soaked to allow the wood to expand and make the barrel leak-proof. Then, fill the barrel with the desired beverage and leave it to age. During aging, the drink is enriched with oak aroma and flavors, becoming smoother and richer.
Frequently asked questions about this product
Does a new oak barrel need preparation before the first use?
Yes. A new barrel must be swelled with water before you fill it: add cold water and let it stand until any weeping through the staves stops and the joints close up. This conditioning is a normal, essential step that seals the 20-litre barrel and prevents leaks.
What does the medium toast level do to the drink?
The inside is toasted to a medium level, which releases oak tannins and vanillin in a balanced way. It adds structure plus vanilla and gentle spice notes, without the heavy charred character of a darker toast.
How long should I age in it, and does the size matter?
Smaller barrels have more wood contact per litre, so they impart oak character faster than large ones. Taste regularly rather than following a fixed time; the 20-litre size lets you match the ageing to your batch.
How do I look after the barrel when it is empty?
Never let a used barrel dry out, or the staves shrink and it will leak. Keep it filled, or clean it and store it with a keeping solution following normal barrel care, in a cool, humid place away from direct heat.
