Frequently asked questions about 006.213.250
How many oak chips should I use per 10 liters of wine?
The recommended dosage is 5-30g per 10 liters of wine, depending on the strength of the desired oak note. Start with a smaller dose (5-10g) to achieve a subtle flavor nuance or use up to 30g to achieve a strong cask effect. Taste regularly and remove chips when desired profile is achieved.
How long should the oak chips be in contact with the wine?
The contact time ranges from a few days to 3 months. Shorter contact gives lighter oak notes, longer aging develops deeper vanilla, caramel and toasty notes. A larger amount of chips will reduce the contact time required, so adjust according to your taste preferences.
What flavor profile do American oak chips provide?
American oak is known for its fruity and sweet flavors with hints of vanilla, coconut and caramel. The medium roast level adds balanced roast notes without dominating the wine. It goes particularly well with full-bodied red wines and white wines looking for a richer aroma.
Add oak chips during fermentation or aging?
Both options work. Adding during fermentation improves oxidation protection and integrates oak flavors more smoothly into the wine's structure. Adding during aging gives more precise control over oak note intensity. For best results, use a mesh bag for easier removal.
How big is the package and how many liters can it process?
The package contains 250g of oak chips. At the standard dose of 10-20g per 10 liters, it is enough to process approximately 125-250 liters of wine. Store in a dry and cool place in a closed container to preserve the aromas.
