1L Charred Oak Aging Barrel with Stand, Bung & Spigot - Perfect for Home Brewing

About this barrel

A 1L charred oak aging barrel is the quickest way to see what oak does to a spirit. This new kit comes with a stand, bung and spigot, and the seller pitches it as perfect for home brewing.

How long should you age in a 1 liter charred barrel?

You'll often see noticeable color and flavor in just a couple of weeks. The char speeds things up, so taste every few days and bottle when it tastes right, whatever the calendar says.

• Capacity: about 1L, a little more than one standard bottle.
• For brewers: try aging part of a stout batch or a homemade bitters blend.
• Swell first: soak it with water until the barrel stops seeping.
• Reuse: later fills pull less from the char, so expect slower changes over time.
