Oak chunks allow homebrewers
to impart terrific flavors and aroma to wines, beers, ciders… aged in glass
carboys, plastic buckets, or steel tanks. The chunks can be used in
wooden barrels as well to speeding up the aging process. They are much easier
to be separate from the barrel than the chips.
Oak cubes, chunks and can
give your homebrew wine or beer different flavours- from vanilla to whiskey
The Oak
Cubes, Chunks are toasted at the same way we toast our barrels.
Heavy Toast (Charred) brings
pronounced caramelized, carbonized and toast flavours very quickly - it doesn't
need much contact time.
Medium Toast has less
tannins but more bouquet, so will impart more aroma than flavor.
It has a
warm, sweet character with strong vanilla overtones.
Light Toast French oak, coconut and fruit flavours.
