$169.00 USD
Safety Notes & Bundle Maintenance Options
- For food and beverage use exclusively. Do not store chemicals or toxic substances—oak exhibits high absorbency, which may lead to residual contamination.
- Pre-commissioning Preparation: Rinse thoroughly with hot water 2–3 times to remove oak dust and debris; soak in potable water for 24–48 hours (top up if leakage occurs during soaking) to fully expand staves and seal joints.
- Prior to filling, secure the stainless steel spigot tightly; fill gradually and avoid overfilling. Keep away from open flames, as high-alcohol spirits are flammable.
- Avoid extreme temperature fluctuations (e.g., direct sunlight, proximity to heaters) to prevent stave expansion/contraction and subsequent leakage.
Purchas Guide
- Capacity Selection: 3L–20L for home enthusiasts (facilitates rapid flavor integration); 30L–125L+ for commercial applications (enables stable large-batch aging).
- Material Verification: Prioritize 100% American White Oak construction; medium toast is recommended for its versatility in achieving balanced flavor profiles.
- Quality Inspection: Ensure rust-resistant and securely fastened hoops, food-grade spigot/stopper; for used barrels, verify the absence of mold,异味 (odors) and structural damage.
- Bulk Order Terms: Exclusive discounts available for distilleries and breweries; customization options (e.g., toast level, branding) are offered—contact the sales team for tailored quotes.
