Soak the chips in the bourbon for one month and drop into beer for 1 week. I had mine sitting for a month and it was WAY too oaky.

I'm making this today...with a few changes.
I don't like the Nottingham yeast, so I'm using some WYEAST (1 pack Brit Ale and 1 pack Brit Ale II)
And I'm only going to let the oak soak for 2 weeks(ish)
Thanks for the recipe
