So I used to build and modify guitars and amplifiers when I was unemployed to suplement my income and now have bulk excess woods just chilling in my garage.
I have Snakewood, Purple Heart, Walnut, Cherry, Maple (both spalted and birdseye), ebony, rosewood, and several other.
I LOVE the smell of walnut going through a table saw, the smell of it charring reminds me of teasted marshmallows.
So what about adding these to my beer? I know oak is a very common wood to use for aging beer and I already have a 5 gallon whiskey barrel for my oak additions but what I want is something new and not commonly done.
Any ideas on how this will come out or anyone who has tried it already that can tell me what I can expect?
