Hi friends. I want to giv a update on a tropical and blueberry that I added oak too. From a 6 gal batch I bottled 4 gals of each and made 2 1 gals of each. I added French oak to 1 and American oak to 1. I used oak chips with amount being 1/2oz which was close to a 1/4 cup. I just added chips...
So I have oak chips. Got my DB cleared and ready to bottle. Can I pull 1 gal out and bottled rest and with that 1 gal add chips? Is it too late in process. I think I'll add 1/2 cup to gallon. Your thoughts.
