American Oak Chips - Medium Toast - 250 g
PintaAmerican oak chips, medium toast, designed to provide the intense aromas associated with ageing in an American oak barrel.
These oak chips are suitable for English and Scotch Ales, Stouts, Porters, Brown IPAs and some bitters, as well as certain dark Belgian-style ales.
Add the oak chips to beer or wine during maturation. For best results, steam-sterilise them for around 15 minutes before use to help prevent contamination.
Using a hop filter bag is recommended to make the chips easier to remove from the wort. Alternatively, make an infusion by boiling the oak chips in a small amount of water for 10–15 minutes, then add the filtered decoction to the wort according to the desired intensity.
