I have a used wine barrel coming in the post.
I am unsure of its full condition.
But it has been retired from a winery and has no leaks.
What should i do to clean this and prep it for lambic brewing?
I plan on putting the bugs from wyeast and dregs from some commercial lambics in after it has been cleaned.
Any advice on keeping my new lambic barrel in good condition for years too come?
Oh and its a 15 gallon barrel.
