Nice to add as a small addition after having added your regular addition of medium or medium plus oak. Manufactured by StaVin. Cubes have a longer contact time than traditional chips do, which make them better for long-term aging of wines and beers. Also, longer contact time means longer extraction of flavors (3-6 months), which leads to a more complex combination of flavors. Chips are usually done giving flavor after a week, there by contributing a harsh, flat oak flavor.

Oak cubes take longer to impart their character to the wine than chips, but the flavor can be superior due to the higher volume of unexposed wood in the cube. Medium toast is our most popular level and provides good oak flavor and character. Recommended usage is 2 oz to 4 oz per 5 gallons of wine.

Plus Toast) https://www.quirkyhomebrew.com/all-products/additives-and-enchancers/oak-additives/cubes/french-oak-stave-segments-4oz-med-plus-toast/ Sat, 09 Dec 2023 00:06:57 +0000 https://www.quirkyhomebrew.com/all-products/uncategorized/french-oak-stave-segments-4oz-med-plus-toast/ If you are looking for oak that produces flavors which are closer to true barrel quality, then these Stave Segments are just right for you. Less end-grain than traditional oak cube means a slower extraction time and a longer contact time, which will lead to a softer, more rounded mouthfeel. Many professional winemakers who have used these segments have said the flavors produced seemed more like those from regular staves in a barrel. The recommended ratio for 100% new barrel flavor is about .5 lb per 5 gallons of wine. Since the exraction is so slow, the minimum contact time is 16 weeks and they can be left on the wine for up to 18 months. Too large for carboys, please check out oak cubes or chips if using a carboy.
