  • Oak Barrels and Oak Chips

    Does anyone know if 20l oak barrels are available in SA? And how much?

    And Oak chips?

          Thanks Rolf. I saw they had some, but I didn't think the price was all that bad.

            Saw the other day that the local hardware store, I think it's Builders, stock wood chips for meat smokers. It had quite the variety of wood chips available.
            Primary: Bohemian Lager
            Secondary: Bohemian lager/ Ale fusion - Added US-05 to secondary
            Next up: Bohemian Lager
            Then: Bohemian Lager
            And Then: Bohemian Lager
            Conditioning: Chucked Fruit Ale

              They say their chips are medium but I believe they are dark roasted French oak chips. I have used it three times and their flavour is superb!

                Simon SA Wine Barrels do a 25litre barrel, I thought the prices were reasonable as well, checkout www.sawinebarrels.co.za
