Went up to roll out the barrel cooperage today to get some american oak, they sell it by the box and the lady said each box has 6kg in it. She also said she could freight it to me in future 2 boxes for $11. $51 for 12kg virgin american oak delivered to my door, sounds like a bargain to me :)

they were very happy to show me around even though i told them i wasn't going to buy a barrel. But now that i've seen one i know its on the cards, so maybe they played me just right :p
