I have a Merlot going in a 6 gallon carboy and 3 gallon carboy. Started it in September and it has been racked about twice now. I bought some French Oak Chips - Medium toast but I'm wondering about how to use them.
Do I boil them before adding??? How much should I add to each carboy and for how long. I don't have a scale so how much in terms of volume??
