So...... Who has had some aging the longest?

Yes, please give us more detail!
I've heard it before that French oak is better, but that could just be opinion... How much did you use (gm /L)? What level of roast (light/med/dark)?

Hard to say Ezi, I long term age in barrels, I have a few different brews on Am Oak that I plan to leave long term, French is relatively new to me so apart from the quick colour up I really cant comment. :handgestures-thumbupleft:EziTasting wrote:That's good to know and supports what I have read before!
What would you change with long term oaking? Or would you just leave one domino in there for up-to a year...?

Mine were in just over two years and I would say just about perfect in flavour - I guess the smaller volume/wood ratio allows it to 'age' quicker?
