Have been reading here about oaking as I'm planning on trying it for the first time with my next batch. Sort of seems like folks get mixed results... So, is my best bet to just do it, sample till I get the oak/flavor I like and go with it?
I am trying a "John John Dead Guy Ale" clone, got 3oz American (med) oak cubes; thinking I'll try about 1.5oz in a cup or so Markers Mark for a week and add everything to secondary and taste test for awhile; maybe 2-4weeks??? or should I go with more cubes??? Please comment if you have any insight.
