I've searched and haven't been able to find anything specific on this question (maybe I just missed it).
I have some JD oak barrel chips that I'm currently soaking in bourbon. I'm planning to toast them after they soak for about a week.
Typically I order my oak chips toasted, and then soak them.
What sort of impact will toasting after soaking have? Will I still get a good bourbon flavor?
Should I toast them and then soak them again for a couple days?
Does it really even matter?
Thanks!
