Want to add oak flavor but don't have a spare oak barrel? Oak infusion spirals are a great alternative. Use 1 stick per 3 gallons, but you can cut the spirals down to adjust to different batch sizes or oakiness. 2 sticks per pack.These spirals are American oak and are heavy toast.
Light will be the most mellow of the toast levels
Medium adds a little toast character, more vanilla
Medium Plus increases toast character, even more vanilla
Heavy toast is the most intense of the toast levels, great for heavy beers or big red wines
American oak tends to be a little bolder and have more vanilla
French oak tends to be more subtle and slightly spicy
