7days. Was it you who recommend to check after a few days on Untapped? I need to thank you. It was sold as a 5, but
it emptied into 3.75gallons.

I remember filling to the brim but racked to 3.75 so don't know if 1.25 soaked into the wood?? My LHBS has oak cubes pre bourbon soaked, they smell awesome. Almost went that route but what the hell, barrel it is. Got a Quad fermenting now for the next run.Sorry, I can't take credit for that suggestion
Interesting that it was sold as a 5 but fit less than 4! I've been tempted to get a barrel a couple times so I am always curious about peoples experiences

IDK, what you did before, but I soaked oak/bourbon for weeks then added all. There's no comparison! True barrel is the way to go imho.
By far, the best NEIPA attempt with my redesigned transfer system which sees no air. Think I'm on the path to better IPAs, my traditional nemesis.
