    Premium American Oak Wine Barrels - Assorted Sizes
    Premium American Oak Wine Barrels - Assorted Sizes
    Quantity
    PREMIUM American Oak Wine Barrels - Made for Quality Wine and Ale Supply by a small, family owned cooperage. Our Oak Wine Barrels are made of smooth, clear,premium, slow growing Minnesota White Oak. They're beautiful, inside and out. Built by hand and toasted to perfection. Every barrel is tested before shipping for that final step in quality assurance.
    Available in 5, 10, 15, 30 and 59 gallon sizes.
    Premium Wine Oak Barrels
  • Every oak barrel is made out of bent planks of oak (called staves). Only the highest quality of oak is used in the oak barrels we sell, and the staves used are always chosen by hand. The reason these are hand selected, is that the quality of the completed oak barrel lies heavily in these staves.
  • The toasting level is achieved based upon the heating time (around 30 minutes). The flavors of the wine partially depend on this. When heated longer than 30 minutes the toast level is heavier. When heated less than 30 minutes, it is lighter. There are multiple toasting levels, which can be adjusted according to what you need. These levels are heavy, medium, medium+, and light. The toasting process happens when a caramelization in the wood occurs (during the heating of the staves). Some examples of the aromas this brings, are: a touch of nut, vanilla, fresh bread, or buttered bread. When one tastes a wine, they will often find these amazing aromas. Our barrels are toasted to medium or medium +.

    Barolkleen
    Quantity
    For treatment of barrels to remove excess tannin. Required usage of 1 pound per every 5 gallons of hot water. 50 gallon barrel will require 10 lbs of Barolkleen. New barrels need to be treated in the following way:
    • Fill the barrel with a solution of Barolkleen mixed to a strength of 1 pound to every 5 gallons of hot water & leave for at least 48 hours.
    • Drain the barrel & flush it with clean water until water runs clear from the barrel.
    • Mix a solution of two ounces of sodium metabisulfite & one ounce of citric acid in two gallons of warm water and pour this solution into the barrel. Roll it around so it comes in contact with all interior surfaces.
    • Drain the sulphite solution, rinse the barrel well & immediately fill with wine.
    Citric Acid - Assorted sizes
    Quantity
    This acid is popular among winemakers. It is the primary acid found in fruits such as lemon, lime, grapefruit, orange, pineapple and others. Citric acid is also used in smaller doses along with metabisulfite or campden tablets to enhance their sterilizing effectiveness. One teaspoon of citric will raise the titratable acid in a gallon of wine by .15 per cent tartaric.
    Sulphur Stick - 8 inch
    Sulphur Stick - 8 inch
    Quantity
    Here is one way to use suplhur sticks in barrels. Hang a lighted sulfur stick in the barrel, placing the bung on very loosely. Pressure will build up with the burning of the sulfur stick and can blow out the bung. After about 5 minutes, remove the burnt sulfur stick and place bung in tightly. The burning of the sulfur stick uses up the oxygen in the barrel, killing bacteria and mold.
