Heritage Distillery in Gig Harbor, Washington uses small volume Oak barrels. I believe they sell them but I didn't see them on their products page. Might want to email them or call to see if they will sell you one and ship to you. I bought an 8 gal used bourbon oak barrel from Woodinville...

Its actually 120 min boil, mash at 154F. I got most of the recipe from the brewer though he gave me the 3100 gal recipe and the 110 min hops in AA, not specific type. I picked Columbus. I ended up short of the 6 gal batch, it was more like 4.5 gal but I think it was my mash temp that messed up...

Here's my recipe for 6 gal batch of Cold Smoke Scotch Ale clone: 11 lbs 2 row 0.39 lbs 120L 0.25 lbs Black 0.10 lbs barley 0.25 oz Columbus @ 110min 5.18 oz Brown Sugar @ 30min 0.36 oz Goldings @ 0min WL-001 or US-05 Boil size is 7.3 gal Cheers!

How high might I be able to get the temp? Would like to get to 55 deg F to brew some lagers.
