OAK AND BARREL ALTERNATIVES FOR WINEMAKING.
Oak barrels have been used for storing wine, beer, and a wide range of alcohol products for thousands of years. The wood from these barrels infuses with their alcoholic contents, enhancing their flavour and aroma. Many microbreweries and home winemakers use oak barrels to produce those desired woody tones. However, not everyone has access to the space needed for large barrels.
The next best solution to create the scents and tastes of barrel-stored alcohol is with the addition of oak chips during the brewing process. At The Bottle Jar Store, we have a variety of oak chips for wine, beer, and the brewing of other alcoholic products. Please take a look at our oak chip products below to find out more.
