Thats the gouch (pronounced gooch) in the UK - My band had a warm up song about it that we played to ourselves (a little blues number about getting a woman to work it - we never played live thankfully)!  |

I've always heard taint here, as in "it taint your balls and taint your a$$"...sort of a no man's land! Guess there must be different definitions of it...gouch sounds pretty cool. I'm gonna try it on a British colleague right now.

I certainly am going to try with a small one. Maybe I will do a secondary fermentation in it. Then, add a little corn sugar to condition. Do you all think this would be a good idea?

there are sanitizers for the wood barrells, as well as little sulfur strips you can burn in the barrell to clean it.

Up north we call it a kaziff. "Kaziff it wasn't there, there would only be one hole." That's the female version.

I know this thread is fairly dead by now, but if OP is still looking for info, check out Firestone Walker's Double-Barrel Ale. It's fully fermented in oak barrels and they even use a patented blowoff system known as the Firestone Union (as opposed to the old Burton Union) to harvest yeast.

I bottle a bourbon barrel stout on Sunday, all i did was soak the oak chips in the bourbon before i poured it into carboy. I'm giving it 3 months to age before i crack one open, but the sample i tasted was really good. The only thing i will do different next time is to use oak cubes instead of chips. I strained it through a cheese cloth, but i'm sure there are still a few bits of oak in there somewhere.
