I have been doing research on how much oak to use, when to use it, sanitizing, and so on. There doesn't really seem to be any particular way to do it. I have 2oz medium roast frech oak chips. I was told to use 2oz (soaked in 100pf vodka over night) for about a month. I don't want to over do it and think I'd rather play it safe. Any suggestions, or just keep tasting and go from there? Will 1oz chips for a week do anything? Thats what I was thinking of doing...
Here is the batch I want to oak-
6 gallon batch made 4/27/13
22lbs clover honey
10 tsp nutrient/enegizer
EC-1118 yeast
I may split it in half and keep 1 plain, while putting some vanilla beans in the other.
Let me know what you think
