French Oak Chippings 30g
French Oak Chippings 30g. Add oak cask aroma & flavour to wine, cider, beer & spirits. Sufficient for up to 20 litres. In stock at The Hop Shop.
Add the character of an oak cask to your homemade wine, cider, beer, or spirit — without the barrel. French oak chippings impart a subtle vanilla, toast, and wood complexity that rounds out tannins and adds depth to the finished drink.
Particularly effective in red wines and full-bodied whites, they can be added at the start of fermentation for a more integrated oak character, or near the end for a fresher, more pronounced effect.

How to Use
Add directly to the ferment at the start or near the end of fermentation. You can add slightly more than the recommended amount to account for the diminishing effect over time and with filtering. Taste regularly and remove or rack off when the desired oak level is reached.
