Just received a MM Pinot Grigio Alljuice kit.When I opened the bucket noticed 2 oak packets.I never had oak added to Pinot Grigio.Has anyone else used this kit. I just wanted to make sure they weren"t put in by error.

Thank you all for your quick replys. I will use them for my bulk aging

Has anyone used the silicone vented carboy bungs,and are they safe for buck agings.
