These heavy toast French oak infusion spirals will provide a smooth oak profile that is more robust than more lightly toasted oak, and are perfect for wine or beer alike. Give them a try in your next oak-infused batch!
Want to add oak character but don't want to resort to buying a barrel that needs maintenance and constant topping off? While there are several alternatives to barrels in the form of oak chips and cubes, the infusion spiral is a fabulous, easy way to get oak character in your handcrafted beer, wine, or other beverages. Infusion spirals are toasted using a convection technology that ensures consistency and uniformity among batches. These oak spirals measure 8 inches long and fit perfectly in standard carboys and fermenters. Full extraction of oak characteristics can be achieved in 6 weeks, but the spirals can be removed or your wine or beer racked from the spirals in less time for a milder oak flavor.
